A tree risk assessment by a qualified arborist will provide you with a written report. It will indicate which trees are hazards and a high risk, it will also recommend specific work to minimise the risk they pose. Getting a professional opinion is due diligence. CONSERVATION Once your tree stops providing its benefits to you and you are considering removal, boost its attraction to natives by installing nesting hollows instead. After removing all the dangerous parts of the tree, we cut hollows into the trunk and branch stubs. The hollows have very specific requirements for each species so you can attract only the ones of interest to you. In the right space a habitat tree can provide amenity to wildlife and to you.

We can also take the logs away and cut them on the Lucas mill giving us more dimensions timber. Foremost, your trees are an amenity that you can take advantage of.
