Tree surgeon in Billericay

Looking to hire a tree surgeon in Billericay? Here we have the answers to questions asked by homeowners just like you. From current costs to finding a reliable tradesperson, let’s get you all the information you need to hire a reputable tree surgeon in Billericay.

  • What do tree surgeons do?

    Professional tree surgeons offer a range of tree care and maintenance services. An experienced tree surgeon can remove branches and fell entire trees when needed.

    Tree surgeons typically provide the following services:

    • Pruning

    • Felling - full or sectional

    • Stump grinding

    • Timber milling

    • Remove dead/weak branches

    • Plant new trees

    • Treat diseased trees with pesticides

    Tree surgeons are trained to safely cut down trees and treat common tree diseases. Hire a tree surgeon to assess the trees on your property and provide the necessary maintenance work. Tree felling can be dangerous and is a job best left to the professionals.

  • What is the difference between a tree surgeon and an arborist?

    Tree surgeons and arborists are two separate professions. The work of a tree surgeon focuses on the physical maintenance of trees, such as pruning, stumping, felling, and more.

    In comparison, an arborist’s work focuses more closely on the health of trees and plants. An arborist can identify tree health issues, diagnose diseases, and provide professional advice on tree care and treatments.

  • What qualifications does a tree surgeon need?

    Tree surgery can be dangerous - it’s important to hire a qualified professional to do the work.

    It’s mandatory for tree surgeons in the UK to have the following qualifications:

    • CS30 – Maintenance of the chainsaw, on-site preparation, and basic cross-cutting

    • CS31 – Fell and process small trees

    • CS38 – Climb a tree and perform aerial rescue

    • CS39 – Use of a chainsaw from a rope and harness

    Tree surgeons can also gain further forestry and arboriculture qualifications from the City & Guilds.

    More qualified tree surgeons typically charge more for their expertise. That being said, we do not recommend hiring a tree surgeon without the necessary qualifications to save money. While their prices may be cheaper, they are unlikely to provide a safe and high-quality service.

  • What insurance should a tree surgeon have?

    Make sure a tree surgeon has insurance cover in place before agreeing to hire them. Without insurance, the cost of any damage caused to your property as a result of the tree surgeon’s work may not be covered.

    Tree surgeons in Billericay should have public liability insurance as a minimum. At Checkatrade, we only approve tradespeople with up-to-date public liability insurance.

  • How to dispose of tree waste after tree surgery?

    Many professional tree surgeons will take timber waste away from your home after surgery. There are several different ways that tree waste can be recycled and repurposed. For example, stumps can be ground into wood chippings to be donated to local parks or schools.

    Tree surgeons use environmentally friendly disposal methods if tree waste can’t be repurposed or recycled. Alternatively, you can cut felled trees into logs to use as fuel for your home’s fire or wood burner.

    Ask your local tree surgeon about waste disposal methods and costs. Some companies may charge an extra fee to remove the logs and branches from your property.

  • How much does a tree surgeon cost?

    The average tree surgeon cost in Billericay depends on the type of tree surgery work that you’re hiring them to do. As a general rule, you can expect a tree surgeon cost to be somewhere in the region of £250 - £400 per person per day.

    If it’s a big job that requires multiple people, a team of 3 tree surgeons costs around £700 - £950 per day.

    To help you plan a budget for the work, here are some average tree surgeon costs that you can expect to pay:

    • Tree felling – £300 to £3,000

    • Large oak at height with team – £1,000 – £3,000

    • Medium birch tree with medium team – £500 to £800

    • Tree debris disposal – £50 to £100

    • Tree trimming – £100 to £500

    Tree surgeon hourly rate

    The average tree surgeon hourly rate in the UK is around £40 per hour – depending on the experience of the individual tree surgeon. If you require a team of tree surgeons, you’re looking at an hourly rate of about £120 per hour for 3 people.

    Factors affecting tree surgeon prices

    As with most home improvement work, there are a number of factors that will affect the price you pay for a tree surgeon’s work. The most important factors to consider are:

    • Tree inspection costs

    • Size and quantity of trees

    • Condition of trees

    • Type of work that needs doing

    • Access to the trees

    • Any prep work needed

    • Disposal of waste materials
