  • Tree Removal Nottingham | Willow Removal and Birch Pruning, Leicester

    After years of re-pollarding this old Willow tree had finally succumbed to old age and decay. Part of the tree had already collapsed in high winds last year. These pictures clearly show how a tree can survive on very little solid wood, providing that the cambium layer, which lies just beneath the bark, is undamaged and still able to pass vital nutrients around the tree. Willow trees are a very vigorous species of tree and ...

  • Tree Surgeons Leicestershire | Dangerous Poplar Removal – Costock

    This Lombardy Poplar was suffering from major decay and had to be removed before it failed. The close proximity to the power lines dictated that we had the power shut off by Western Power and the poor condition of the tree meant that climbing it was not an option and a mobile platform was brought in for the day. It was a wonder it was still standing after the high winds in the days prior ...

  • Nottingham Tree Reduction | Reduction of Chestnuts & Sycamore – Wysall, Leicestershire

    This group of trees have grown as a group and give the impression of being one tree. With this in mind we reduced them accordingly. The neighboring property was a bungalow which was set a lot lower than the tree owners property so the trees were very imposing from the neighbor's patio below.

  • Ash Tree Removal, Keyworth, Notts | Leaf Tree Services

    This Ash tree was in an awkward position. It covered three gardens, two sheds and all manner of fragile shrubs and garden ornaments. To make things just that little more challenging the tree had no central stem so it was a technical climb. All went well, another happy customer! Great to have summer back again too!

  • Nottingham Tree Surgeons | Acacia Removal, The Park Estate, Nottingham

    This False Acacia was covered by a Tree Preservation Order but due to the root system causing structural damage to the retaining wall, the Council had consented to its removal. Its prominent position over the road, and the listed hotel below, meant that it had to be dismantled and lowered down using a rigging system.
