Tree Surgeon Services

Your Local Essex Tree Surgeon Service

Tree surgeons are qualified professionals trained to provide tree services ranging from reducing the tree’s crown right through to the removal of an entire tree. A tree surgeon’s work can be very dangerous and should not be attempted by anyone who is untrained.  Much work is at height and involves handling heavy branches which if removed the wrong way could prove incredibly hazardous. If you need a tree surgeon Essex experts T.H Tree Services recommend you opt for someone who is suitably qualified, experienced and insured.

• Storm damage assessment to check the safety of a tree after harsh weather

Specialists in all Species of Tree Surgery

Our tree surgery experts have specialist knowledge of all the common species of trees in the UK including the following:

Oak Tree Surgeons

Our expertise in tree surgery for oak trees is well respected across Essex. The English oak is probably the best-known tree in Britain and definitely the most common. Officially known by its Latin name as Quercus Robur, oak trees regularly grow in excess of 20 metres and sometimes up to 40 metres. The fact they grow so tall and have expansive canopies supported by strong branches is not an issue, as our in-depth experience in oak tree surgery Essex wide and our specialist equipment allow us to tackle any task with ease.

Willow Tree Surgeons

 There are around 400 species of the willow tree, known in Latin as Salix meaning ‘sallow’. When mature, willow trees grow to around 10 metres tall and have long lifespans up to 300 years. We have particular expertise in dealing with willow tree surgery Essex wide. Due to the breadth of the hanging canopies, dealing with a willow tree that needs attention does require specific know-how, which thanks to our long term and wide-ranging experience as qualified tree surgeons, we can certainly offer.

Conifer Tree Surgeons

Conifer trees are well known for growing to soaring heights, sometimes up to 100 metres. Of the Latin Pinophyta, there are many different types of conifer including yew, pine, cypress and Douglas fir. If you have any type of conifer on your land, perhaps as a hedge or even just a single tree and it needs specialist attention, you can rely on our expertise to safely handle it. Even if you have a full row of exceptionally tall conifers, our Essex conifer tree surgeons will be able to find a solution to prune them, remove them or make them safe.

Eucalyptus Tree Surgeons

The eucalyptus tree is an evergreen variety which benefits from expert attention including coppicing and pollarding. Providing they are regularly pruned, eucalyptus trees can be suitable for small gardens, but left unkempt they will grow to quite a height and even in normal conditions, they will easily shed bark and branches. If you have a eucalyptus tree it is important to have any dead wood removed regularly and if the tree has grown fairly tall it may be worth having it cut back. Our eucalyptus tree surgery service is available Essex wide and we are able to handle any job, regardless of the size of the tree.

Cherry Tree Surgeons

Cherry belongs to the Prunus group of trees and there is various fruit bearing species across Europe. Cherry trees can grow wide and tall, often up to 10 metres, and despite the fact they produce delicious fruit and beautiful cherry blossom, they can easily become unmanageable. If a cherry tree on your land needs attention from a qualified Essex tree surgeon, we can offer the know-how required.

Silver Birch Tree Surgeons

The silver birch tree, known officially as Betula Pendula, is native to the UK. It can reach 30 metres in height and has a light canopy. The silver birch is a good tree to have as a neighbour if you are a plant, as its deep roots act as a channel for otherwise inaccessible nutrients. Of course, these deep roots may cause an issue in other respects, sometimes making it a challenge to remove a silver birch tree. However, this is not a problem for T.H. Tree Services, as we have developed specialist expertise in dealing with all the UK’s native tree species. If you have a silver birch tree that needs pruning, cutting back or removing, you can rely on the capabilities of our silver birch tree surgeons in Essex to do so quickly and efficiently.

Ash Tree Surgeons

It is a sad fact that the ash tree has become well known because of ash dieback rather than its natural beauty. Ash trees, scientifically known as Fraxinus Excelsior, are native to the UK. They can live to a ripe old age of 400 years, although this can be even longer if they are professionally coppiced. Often reaching heights of around 35 metres, the ash tree is known for being tall and elegant, and it is common for them to grow together so that a domed canopy forms. If you have an ash tree in Essex that you need checking, cut back or removed, you can rely on the expertise of the tree surgeons at T.H. Tree Services to undertake the task professionally, safely and efficiently. Even if you have a row of ash trees that need attention, we can assist.

Plum Tree Surgeons

The plum tree comes from the family known as Prunus Domestica, which also produces damson and greengages. Plum trees are not native to the UK but are still fairly common. They do not grow very tall and are characterised by straight branches and spiny twigs. If you have a plum tree that needs attention, we can help. Our qualified Essex plum tree surgeons are experts in caring for many of the UK’s common tree species and will conduct an inspection to see what can be done. Similarly, if you are looking for plum tree removal then we can also assist.

Cedar Tree Surgeons

Cedar trees are imposing evergreen conifers. They are native to the Lebanon, eastern parts of the Mediterranean and areas of Asia, but fairly common now in the UK. The Latin name is Cedrus Libani and the wood is a natural insect repellent. Cedar trees generally grow to around 35 metres and they are distinctive by the fact that they have several trunks. Despite the unusual shape, our Essex cedar tree surgeons are able to deal with cutting back or making safe a cedar tree without issue, and it is no problem at all to remove a cedar tree that is blocking light or causing issues due to underground roots.

Pine Tree Surgeons

There are a number of different species of pine trees. The Scots pine is one of the most common and is one of just three native to the UK. The Pinus Sylvestris as it is known will grow up to 35 metres in height and can live for up to 700 years. Despite the looming height, the specialist Essex pine tree surgeons at T.H. Tree Services can offer to deal with attending to, pruning, cutting back or removing pine trees with absolute expertise and efficiency. Even if your pine tree has been badly damaged by a storm or has grown to an unruly state, and is of a particular height, we have the knowledge, manpower and experience to deal with it cost effectively and swiftly.
