Ivy & Wisteria Removal By Essex Tree Surgeons

Ivy & Wisteria Removal By Essex Tree Surgeons

As attractive as they may look growing up the side of a property or covering a wall or a fence, wisteria and ivy can quickly become out of control, dominating an outside space, as well as the four walls – and anything else they can attach themselves to – of your home.

Any type of plant covering a property can hide underlying issues such as damp or leaks, and it can often cause damp too due to the fact it takes longer for walls or fences to dry after a spell of rain. Ivy in particular has a habit of making its way under timber window frames, roof tiles and any gaps in brickwork, which can cause no end of problems.

If you need assistance in removing ivy or wisteria from your property, you can rely on the expertise of T.H. Tree Services, operating throughout Basildon, Brentwood, Chelmsford, Hornchurch, Southend on Sea, Upminster and the whole of Essex. Just call us on 01268 642814 to arrange your free, no-obligation quotation.

For our client featured in the gallery above, we not only removed the ivy but also cleaned the brickwork and re-painted the top boards leaving a perfect and professional finish.

Wisteria Woes

Wisteria is a woody, twisting vine. Identified by its pretty violet or cream coloured hanging floral bunches, the plant has a reputation as one of the most quintessential English country garden plants. However, this reputation can become jaded when the plant takes over an entire garden, which is something it can do with great ease considering the fact that it doesn’t need feeding, instead fixing its own nitrogen.

The fact is wisteria needs plenty of TLC. In fact, it needs a LOT of attention. Neglect to prune it regularly and it will grow rampantly. Masses of leafy growth will consume the flowers, leaving you with an unsightly tangle of foliage.

Ivy Irritation

There’s no doubting ivy-clad buildings hold a certain appeal. However, the fact that the plant is so quick to grow can cause it to become an irritation, especially if you are unable to keep it under control yourself.

Like wisteria, ivy is a woody climber. It grows outwards and upwards by producing aerial roots along its stems. These cling to walls or fences and when the ivy is removed, these roots, or tendrils, are left behind, often leaving an unsightly mess.

Ivy can prove an issue because it can provide a home for pests like mice, as well as providing a route to your windows for intruders. What’s more, it can also be an allergen in some cases.
