Tree Surgery Techniques

Wednesday, May 11th, 2011

Using the correct tree surgery techniques is an essential step in achieving and maintaining your green, pruned paradise, and here at GardenBusters, we’re just the team to make this happen. Equipped with our professional tools and equipment, we’re able to help property and landowners everywhere to keep their trees safe, attractive, and under control, with our specialist tree surgery Warwick service.

Depending on the results which you’d like to achieve from your tree surgery, we’ll use our expert knowledge to choose the best technique for the job. These techniques include;

• Section Felling

• Crown Cleaning

• Tree Thinning

• Crown Reduction

• Cable Bracing

• Lowering

Professional tree surgeons, such as our capable team, will be able to assess the best methods to use, and devise the most successful solution.

Trees can often grow much larger and quicker than expected, becoming a danger or obstacle to those within the environment. Lowering is often a useful technique where the trees have become dismantled over the buildings, providing a safer and neater tree for you to enjoy.

For large branches which are at risk of splitting, cable bracing is the best option, as if left alone, the branches could fall off at any given moment, presenting a significant danger to any unlucky passerby! Branches can often grow weak if they become diseased, or if two limbs grow together. We can recognise these tree hazards and safely remove this danger, so that you can continue to enjoy your garden or premises in peace and assurance.

Is your tree too big and getting in the way of other features of your garden? We can easily reduce the size of your trees using reduction techniques, to retain its shape but also make it a much easier manageable size to deal with.

If you’re wondering what will happen to all the mess once the surgery has finished, there’s no need to worry. We’ll take all waste away with our convenient site clearance service, to ensure your premises are left looking as neat and tidy as possible.

Methods of Tree Pruning

Wednesday, April 6th, 2011

To prune or not to prune? That is the question, get it right and pruning can greatly enhance the health and aesthetics of your tree, get it wrong and you could end up significantly damaging the tree and its potential. If you want to know how to properly care for your tree, our expert team here at GardenBusters are the people to call; we have the knowledge and experience to ensure your tree is always kept at its prime so it can be enjoyed for years to come. Read on as we take you through our top tips on tree pruning Warwick.

The following questions and answers aim to aid successful and safe tree pruning:

When is the best time to prune my tree?

It is best to wait until the later months of the year if your tree is deciduous. This is because during the spring time, your tree is likely to bleed sap if cut, by waiting until later in the year your tree will be inactive and much easier to prune. However, it is important to remember that some types of deciduous trees bleed sap for most of the year, so it is best to prune these in the summer after fresh growth has been given a chance to stabilise.

How do I prune a younger tree?

The first year is an important period of time for a young tree, and pruning is necessary to promote health and vitality. It is advised that during the first year, a third of the lowest growing branches are removed.

Can I prune the tree myself?

It is always best to leave extensive pruning and tree surgery up to the professionals, especially if pruning requires the use of a chainsaw or climbing up to get to higher branches.

With a committed and fully qualified team on hand to perform any level of tree pruning Warwick, we at GardenBusters are proud to offer a service that surpasses our competitors by miles. We offer regular service routines to maintain your site, ensuring all trees are healthy and flourishing. For further information on our extensive range of services, visit our website today.

This is the perfect time of year to plan the landscaping of your garden for the summer months and the welfare of your trees should not be forgotten. Trees play a vital role in many gardens whether through the appearance benefits they bring or via the increased levels of privacy they offer to your garden area. Whatever their main function, it is advisable to call in our professional team to make sure they are always in the best condition.

Regular tree maintenance should also be carried out in preparation for spring. This often includes the felling or dismantling of damaged or overhanging branches, the pruning of trees to a desirable shape and the inoculation to protect against diseases.

As we at Garden Busters are experienced in the field of tree surgery Birmingham, our talented surgeons will always work to the best of their ability to guarantee the trees in your garden are kept in the finest condition.
