Expert Tree Surgeon Services Dorking

Crown Reductions The height or ‘crown’ of the tree is expertly reduced to alleviate mechanical stress from heavy-set branches. Any Reigate or Redhill venues overshadowed by foliage can be resolved, without weakening the tree’s frame. Crown Thinning Tree surgeons trim no more than 30% of the tree’s mass from smaller, broad-leafed branches to reduce the density and weight. This is safely carried out whilst retaining the tree’s shape and size. Crown Lifting Branches are carefully removed from below, ensuring the trunk is not affected. This ‘lifting’ technique is practiced by tree surgery specialists, which cannot exceed 15% of the crown height

Our tree surgeons are fully-trained by Lantra and City & Guilds NPTC to undertake tree removals at Reigate, Redhill and Surrey properties. Each member of our team has qualifications and experience working at great heights, which involves safely climbing trees and operating winches or chainsaws. We are fully insured with public liability cover and proficient at aerial rescue manoeuvres.

The two-main tree removal methods are as follows:

• Directional – A chainsaw is used to cut the tree from the trunk and felled in one single motion for a complete tree removal
• Sectional – Ropes and winches are used to lower trees in sections, once branches and limbs have been cut. This is an ideal alternative when there is not enough ground space for felling

Tree removals typically leave behind stumps which can affect redevelopment projects at your Reigate or Redhill property. Whether you’re laying new turf, decking, patios or driveways, stump grinding services remove obstacles to leave you with a flat landscape. Healthy stumps create habitats for local plant and wildlife; however, tree surgery experts will check if there are any signs of decay which can poison other plants or trees. Non-hazardous woodchips produced by stump grinding are repurposed for lining parks and playgrounds.

• Hedge Cutting – In addition to tree pruning, we carry out hedge cutting to keep borders looking attractive, uniform and at a legal height
• Jungle Clearance - Our tree surgeons remove organic waste from Reigate, Redhill and Surrey gardens, such as overgrowth from dilapidated properties
• Dead Wooding - Limbs or branches that die from a lack of light or pests are promptly removed after tree surgery health checks. This prevents root issues and infections affecting neighbouring plants

If you need timber for construction or garden landscaping projects, we provide supplies from recycled waste materials. Reigate, Redhill and Surrey clients can benefit from treated logs for fuel and wood-burning purposes.
