Lumberjacks are professional Tree Surgeons and specialize in Tree and Hedge Care.

Services Included:

Tree Felling

If trees are damaged, diseased or invasive, removal may be the best or only option. We will leave the area clear and tidy ready for replanting or regeneration

Hedge Trimming

Hedges ideally need maintenance twice a year, this ensures that they keep their shape and size but also helps them grow into a dense boundary.

We have high attention to detail to ensure your hedges are trimmed to the perfection.

Hedges make a lovely home for wildlife, so we ask that you please check that no birds are nesting. Birds nesting season is Feb- August.

Crown Reductions

Crown reductions include the reduction of the width and the height of the tree whilst keeping the root system under control.

Crown Lifting

Crown lifting involves removing the lowest branches of the tree to allow more light below the tree or to improve access. No more than 15% of the crown height should be removed leaving the crown to make up at least two thirds of the tree’s total height.

Crown Thinning

Common reasons for Crown Thinning are to allow more light to pass through the tree, reduce wind resistance with maintaining the shape and size of the tree.

Limb/Branch removal

Removing a dead of damaged limb to reduce the risk of it becoming a hazard.

Deadwood removal

Dead wooding is the removal of any non-living branches and stems from the tree to avoid any risk of danger should it fall. This is particularly important in areas where people may walk, play or drive underneath.

Pollarding

Pollarding is a technique used to manage the size and shape of a tree. A framework is created when a tree is young by removing the top of a tree to encourage multi-stem branches at that point. This is carried out every year or two from then on. This is only suitable for certain tree species.

Stump removal

Following removal of a tree or hedge you will be left with a stump close to ground level. If you are looking to replant in this area or just want a tidier finish you may want to grind the stump down to below ground level.

TPO Application

A Tree Preservation Order is an order made by the local planning authority in England to protect specific trees, groups of trees or woodlands in the interests of amenity.

Lumber-Jacks Tree Services are able to apply for the approval of any tree work on your behalf. The local tree officer will come and review the tree and make a decision within 6-8 weeks.

A tree with a TPO will need approval before the work can commence.
