Tree Management by Weymouth's arboricultural experts We always encourage our clients to be proactive when it comes to looking after their trees. The recent severe gales have resulted in a lot of storm damage, with the resulting expensive tree surgery. If you adopt a proactive tree management approach many storm-related incidents could be prevented. [...]
https://youtu.be/TpnkQe7pg2Q "So, how big is a sack of hardwood logs?" We are often asked this, or similar questions by new customers. Other common queries are, "How big are your logs?" or "How many logs do you get in a sack?" If you are new to wood-burning, or have just moved to the Weymouth area, [...]
Felling a Dawn Redwood tree The clients at this Weymouth property were concerned about the size of the Dawn Redwood tree -Metasequoia glyptostroboides - in their back garden. Although it was still a relatively young tree, it was growing close to the boundary fence, and was taller than the neighboring house. The roots were protruding above the [...]
We have just undertaken some tree felling at Buxton Road, Weymouth. Our clients called us in to have a look at a large eucalyptus tree that had already lost big branches in recent storms, and its roots were damaging the adjacent sewer pipe that ran down through the garden. They also asked us to remove a [...]

The tree was in very poor condition, with extensive decay, and had already lost large limbs that had broken in windy conditions. The tree was growing above a neighbour's garage, so we dismantled the tree in sections and lowered everything to the [...]
We were delighted to secure the contract for some tree works within the grounds of Lulworth Castle House over the past week or two. This involved dismantling and removing three trees - a very large sycamore, a dead horse chestnut and a medium-sized, multi-stemmed eucalyptus. The weather did its best to disrupt proceedings for the [...]
Don't try this at home, but we are going to show you how to prune dead branches from a holly, from our attached time-lapse video clip and photos. Pruning in trees is obviously more difficult than from the ground, and you need to be a trained, qualified tree surgeon to safely work at height using a [...]
We have just undertaken a crown lift and 2 metre crown reduction on a sycamore tree in Broadwey, Weymouth, to allow more light into the client's garden. This particular tree is subject to a tree preservation order (TPO), and the local authority gave permission for the work to be carried out. If you have any [...]
This post highlights our recent work dismantling a large Monterey cypress in Wyke Regis, Weymouth. I've included a number of images to complement the YouTube video. Removal of a large, venerable tree such as this one is never undertaken lightly. In this case, a number of large limbs had previously crashed out of the [...]
