Sometimes trees need to be felled. There can be many reasons for this, and they include disease and decay, roots disrupting foundations, or you possibly just want to make a change to your garden.

This process is usually carried out when a tree needs to be reduced in size. This involves reducing the canopy by a percentage with the aim of creating more light for the surrounding areas.

This is a technique carried out for trees with excessive growth in the canopy. Another reason for this process is to let more natural light through.

To remove medium to large dead branches that pose a danger of falling on people or property below.

For whatever a tree limb may need removing we can carry this out safely with either lowering techniques or simply cut and hold.

This procedure in a garden setting is usually to enable more light to get into the area below. It is also very important when trees grow over paths or roads. The Highway Act of 1980 states that there must be a clearance of at least 2.3 metres over footpath and cycle tracks, and a clearance of 5.3 metres on roads.

This is a pruning system in which the entire canopy is removed, prompting a dense foliage growth.

We can supply, plan and plant all types of trees – all species from saplings to mature specimens. Regular watering can be arranged.

No matter how tall or long your hedge may be, here at Ox Tree Surgeons we are happy to help.

Slowly hedges can become a little too high to manage so we can get them back down to size by reducing some of the height.

When it is time for a change we can remove any and all types of hedges.

We can plan, supply and plant all types of hedges for you, depending on your individual requirements.

Chainsaws can only go to ground level, this is when the stump grinder takes over. Sometimes the grinding out of stumps is not necessary, but if you want to replant in the same spot it is necessary.

An alternative to grinding, these caps can be inserted into the stump to kill any chance of it growing back.

Whether it be for development or just starting your garden again, Ox Tree Surgeons can clear any size space of trees and other vegetation.

Sometimes there’s not enough hours in the day, this is where Ox Tree Surgeons can take care of overgrown trees and hedges on a more regular basis.
