WHEN IS A TREE SURGEON REQUIRED?
Knowing if you need a tree surgeon can be simple. Is there something worrying you about your trees?
Perhaps you’ve noticed some changes to the health of your tree? The leaves are a bit sparse, the tree looks wilted, it may have strange growths or oozing. Or, it could be that your tree is growing too large for an area. A bit too tall for your comfort. Or tree branches are getting a little too close to structures.
Sometimes people are concerned about trees blocking the light in an area. Moss growing in the grass, or shade on the greenhouse.
It may not even be you. Maybe your neighbours are worried about a tree and need some reassurance. Or maybe your insurance won’t cover a tree close to your property?
