Tree Felling & Tree removal
There are normally a number of valid reasons to fell a tree. Either the tree is diseased, dead or has become dangerous and needs to be removed entirely.
Pollard
Involves the removal of all limbs back to the main trunk.
Dead Wooding
Refers to the removal of dead wood only.
Coppice
Cutting back of selected tree species almost to ground level, on a regular cycle normally between 10 to 30 years in length.
Crown Lifting
Involves the removal of lower branches to a desired clear height above ground level, either by removing whole branches or by the removal of those parts which extend below the desired clear heights.
Crown Reduction
Reducing overall crown area by a given amount from the tips of the branches to produce a smaller crown area but retaining natural species shape.
Crown Thinning
Involves the removal of a proportion of secondary and small live branch growth from throughout the crown to produce an even density of foliage around a well spaced and balanced branch structure.
Crown Clean
The removal of dead, dying or diseased wood, stumps of broken branches, unwanted epicormic shoots, climbing plants e.g. ivy and rubbish accumulated in branch fork.
Formative Pruning
Pruning a young tree in order to produce a tree which in maturity will be free from major physical weakness i.e. removal of competing leaders, crossing branches and weak branches.
Crown Reshaping
Recommended as being a ‘once-only’ operation to make a tree safe or bring it to a desirable condition or shape, over the whole area or part.
We recently used Beechwood Tree Specialists to reduce the height of a number over overgrown trees. After Julian’s site visit he was very prompt in getting the price back to us. Our property has a number of access issues which Julian overcame, liaising with our neighbours on our behalf. I was extremely happy with the work carried out, Julian went the extra mile and actually ended up clearing more debris from our garden than we expected.
I would not hesitate to recommend Beechwood Tree Specialists.
We have used BTS for several years. They have consistently provided a prompt, efficient and professional tree service. Julian always does a fantastic job and leaves the site clear of debris. Altogether a highly recommended service.
