• Oak – all types including English or common oak, sessile oak and holm oak, regardless of size.
• Willow – including willows situated by rivers and lakes.
• Ash – if we detect any symptoms of ash dieback we will advise our recommended plan of action.
• Fruit trees – such as pear, plum, cherry and apple. Fruit trees benefit from regular, expert pruning to help them develop a robust branch structure, needed to support their heavy fruit crops.
• Conifers and pines – including yew, cedar and Leyland cypress, all well known for growing to towering heights of up to 100 metres.
• Thorny trees and spiky trees – such as hawthorn, holly and monkey puzzle – tree cutting companies will usually avoid working on trees that pose a natural hazard, but not us!
• Eucalyptus trees – all varieties including the tallest which can grow to 30 metres high. The cider gum tree is one of the most common found in large numbers along the Essex coast.
• Beech trees – even those that have grown to 30 or 40 metres in height and sport a wide canopy. Regular pruning is good for the beech tree to help it maintain its leaves year-round.
• Other deciduous and evergreen trees – such as silver birch, hornbeam, lime, maple, sycamore, rowan, elm, whitebeam, spindle and aspen and all ornamental and flowering trees including lilac, magnolia, false acacia (Robinia) and bay laurel.

Tree Cutting Tilbury: Timing is Everything

There are certain times of year when tree cutting should be avoided.

Firstly, you must never prune any tree during the bird nesting season. This runs from February to August. This rule applies to non-emergency tree cutting work only.

Secondly, it tree cutting during the active growing season is not advisable. This in most cases runs from late spring to early winter. During the active growing period, trees bleed sap when cut. This attracts bugs which bring disease. Again, emergency tree cutting can be undertaken at any time, but where possible it should be avoided until late winter to early spring, in most cases.

‘Most cases’ is very important, because some tree species vary from this general rule. Be sure to consult our news and tree ID pages for advice on when to prune your tree, or contact us for individual guidance.

If your tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) then the amount of tree cutting allowed will be confined and you will need permission from your local authority to proceed with any proposed works. This may take anything up to eight weeks to be provided.
