Local Authority Tree Contracts Thurrock: Our Services

Our local authority tree contracts cover a vast range of services. These include:

Tree pollarding

For trees located next to public highways, railway lines or overhead power lines, it is good practice to keep their canopies controlled with the tree pruning method known as pollarding. This service is popular amongst local authorities where trees need to be maintained and kept safe long term.

Crown lifting

When we carry out crown lifting, we start by removing the lower branches with the aim of lifting the canopy to make space in the lower reaches. The overall height of the tree remains but with the lower areas cleared it becomes possible for people to walk underneath and enjoy the shade, and it also makes it easier for groundskeepers to carry out their maintenance tasks.

Storm damaged tree removal

Local authorities depend on us to swiftly remove trees that have fallen on public land due to storms or high winds. Regardless of the weather or the risk, we have the experience, personnel and expertise to move quickly to ensure public health and safety hazards are eliminated.

Tree removal

Trees that are posing a hazard; are diseased and untreatable or that are blocking access may need to be removed, as do trees whose roots are causing issues with nearby buildings. Tree removal involves a great deal of working at height, so it must be undertaken by professionals with the relevant qualifications and fit for purpose equipment.

Tree pruning advice – why timing means everything

Our Thurrock tree surgeons are able to provide professional advice on the optimum time to prune any particular tree. You can learn more by consulting our news and tree ID pages.

In most situations we will do what we can to avoid tree pruning during the active growing season. This runs from late spring to early winter. The reason for this is that when a tree is pruned during its growing phase, it bleeds sap which attracts bugs, which spread diseases.

We also avoid, by law, the bird nesting season. This runs from February to August.

In all cases we may still go ahead when there is an urgent or immediate need, such as a tree or branches that are posing a hazard, or a diseased tree that needs treating.

Common tree diseases we look out for

Certain trees are more susceptible to disease and pest infestations than others. The most widespread diseases are ash dieback, chestnut blight, Dutch elm disease and oak decline, although there are many others that we are constantly scanning for.

Our local authority tree contracts specialists in Thurrock are qualified to identify, analyse and treat all types of diseases, fungi and pest infestations. Our guide to common tree diseases and pests is a helpful resource, although of course you are welcome to contact us for individual advice.
