Pruning
Aside from being more pleasing in appearance, properly pruned trees will normally remain healthier and live longer than neglected trees. In fact, the pruning of trees is the most important tree maintenance practice you can have.
Pruning is important in order to maintain tree health. The arborist can develop strong trunk and branch structure by eliminating potential defects, particularly while the tree is still young. If the arborist is not called in until the tree is older, an attempt to correct the structural defect could injure the tree. Structural defects that will cause future hazards can be removed while the tree is young at a much lower cost.
Trees also can encroach towards buildings, shade light and gardens and be simply too large for their location. A light crown reduction or a crown thin will be a pleasing tree to have in your garden instead of one that you can't live with.
Tree Removal
Sometimes trees can be planted in the wrong place or simply have gone into decline and have become a safety issue. These trees can be removed with minimal disturbance and we can offer a full replanting service.
Stump Removal
Tree removal leaves a stump in the ground which may be unwanted. If we have removed the tree, we will have discussed stump removal or 'stump grinding' as it is known. If the tree has been removed by someone else, you may just be left with an unsightly stump where the tree used to be. Removal is done with a stump grinder and the by-product is chippings which you can choose to keep or let us remove.
Planting
We can proivde replacement trees/hedges and specimen plants to enhance the look of you garden.
Hedge Trimming
Hedge maintenance can be a bigger job than you are capable of. It may be that the hedge has been neglected for a while and just needs bringing back to a manageable status. We also offer an annual maintanence service to keep your hedges in a uniformed condition. We remove all trimmings from site, leaving your garden neat and tidy upon completion.
Traffic management is a factor to be considered when you are working on a street location and Greenwood Tree Surgeons equip each team to safely manage traffic hazzards.
Climbing Plants
There is nothing quite like Ivy to give a house that 'country manor' look. It is however, quite aggressive as a species. If you have Ivy attached to your house, you need to keep it under control. This not only looks better but protects your house from intrusive growth.
Your house will look neater when the Ivy is brought under control. The frontal aspect will be vastly improved.
