Tree Surgery - Now everyone loves trees and actually we rely on trees to survive on earth, having said that trees need looking after and cannot be simply left to run riot, especially in our business premises or gardens. If not managed properly trees could soon become a problem they create trip hazards, cause injury or damage from falling branches, give shelter to insects and pests, impair pipes and foundations and block out the passage of light. If cared for properly trees are generally an attractive feature in our properties but the emphasis is on "properly managed". Merely cutting off some branches when they become too long isn't sufficient, you'll make the trees gain height and much more challenging to deal with. What you really need is a seasoned tree surgeon to call in and advise you on the most effective tree care techniques. These tree experts understand all that is essential to keep the trees in good shape, they'll keep your trees at an appropriate height, cut them at the correct time in the year, cut them in the appropriate manner as well as clear away the green waste when they've finished working. You may be able to tackle small trees by yourself such as fruit trees but even with them you must master the proper techniques for pruning otherwise you may kill the trees or at least prevent them from bearing fruit which is contrary to the purpose of owning fruit trees in the first place. If you're going to prune and manage your trees purchase a decent book or better yet ask the guidance and advice of a professional tree surgeon - he will point you in the right direction. Therefore, the actual recommendation is if you've got large trees in your garden, you'll want to care for them, it may be possible to undertake minor pruning duties on your own although for any significant tree lopping speak to a local tree surgeon who will handle it all for you in a secure and safe manner making use of the proper equipment and tools.
