Tree Surgeon FAQs

Do tree surgeons need a waste carriers licence?

If you’re looking to become a tree surgeon or perhaps you just need to hire a reliable tree surgeon for your home or business establishment, one of the things you’d first need to consider is whether or not a waste carriers license is required. If you’re also having the same concern, then you’ve come to the right place! In this post, we’re going to consider whether or not a waste carriers license is a required license for tree surgeons. Let’s take a look!

First and foremost, let’s consider the meaning of a waste carriers license. If you happen to carry waste on the public highway, a valid waste carriers license is a must. This is also applicable to any business which transports, buys, sells or disposes wastes or arranges for another person to buy, sell or disposes of waste. What’s more? This does not necessarily have to be your primary area of business, but so far it’s a part of the activities you engage in. As a homeowner, it’s your responsibility as a producer of waste to make sure that it’s being handled legally and correctly even after the waste has left your premises. In the event whereby your waste has been disposed of illegally or wrongly, you should be able to stand your ground that you’ve done everything in your power to make sure your waste was handled and disposed of the proper way. One way you can ensure that is by ensuring your waste carriers can legally carry your waste.

According to the Environment Agency, all tree surgeons and arboriculture-contracting companies transports and carries waste regularly are required to obtain a Waste Carrier’s license to do so. 

how much to remove a tree?

Do you have a tree you want to remove in your yard or property? Then you’d most likely be curious to know how much it would cost to have it removed. However, when it comes to tree removal services, there’s no precise answer to how much a professional tree surgeon will charge as each tree is unique and so the price would be charged based on the unique features of the tree in question.

There are a lot of factors that determines the price a professional tree surgeon will charge to remove a tree but it generally starts at £80 to £100 including VAT and this price increases with the size as well as the job’s complexity. Here are some influencing factors:

• The Tree’s Height. A taller tree will generally be more difficult to remove than a shorter one. A good equipment and extra care will also be needed to complete the task. As a result, you’d expect a taller tree to be more expensive.

• Tree Overhang. Due to trees overhanging some buildings, extra care most be taken to ensure the protection of nearby buildings and properties.

• Tree Accessibility. When the tree is easily accessible, no much work is required. If not, there’ll be a need to carry out some extra work to ensure easy access without any damages.

• Public Consideration. In the event whereby the tree is near a path or road, there’ll be a need to obtain a permission to close off some sections of the path or road.

• Tree Disposal. If you need the trees disposed from the site, then the service will also be include in the total price.

Generally on the average, local tree surgeons will charge about £500 to £650 for a day’s work. But this can also be higher or lower depending on your location.

Can tree surgeons carry out work on trees protected by Tree Preservation Orders?

In many instances tree surgery work can still be carried out on trees that are protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs). Tree surgeons will be able to file the needed forms with the local authority to arrange such work, and advise you throughout the entire process.

Should I be carrying out preventative tree surgery?

Even if your trees are not obviously damaged or diseased, tree surgeons can carry out surveys to determine if there is any work that needs to be carried out. This work could range from removing dead branches, pruning to promote growth, or even crown works which could open up more light into your property by altering the height and size of nearby trees.

how much does a tree surgeon cost?

How Much Does A Tree Surgeon Cost?

When there’s an unhealthy or over grown tree in your otherwise beautiful garden, not only does it affect the garden’s entire visual appeal, but also constitutes some health hazards to all those staying close by or visitors. To resolve this issue, it’s crucial to get in touch with a local tree surgeon as soon as possible. However for most people, before picking up the phone to dial the number, they’ll often want to know just much it would cost to hire the services of a tree surgeon. Good news is, be it a regular maintenance task of lopping and pruning the tree or perhaps you want it totally removed, it may not cost as much as you would think. So exactly how much does a tree surgeon charge?

There are several factors that affects the price a tree surgeon would charge for a job. These factors include the size of your tree, the tree’s accessibility (is the tree easy or hard to reach?), the location of the tree, the type of the job required, the type of the tree as well as the tree count, the job length (the time it’ll takes to complete the job), tree health and diseases as well as the removal and disposal of a tree’s remains. Considering all the above factors, it’s normal to think the cost of hiring a tree surgeon is a lot more expensive than you would have first imagined. However, they’re usually a lot less and competitive.

Generally, you can expect local tree surgeons to charge within a range of £500 to £650 on the average for a day’s work. But you should note there are smaller companies that only accept easier jobs. Overall, a team comprising one to two workers will cost between the range of £400 to £550 a day, based on your location.

Can a tree close to a building be felled?

Many tree surgeons offer a specialist service for trees that cannot be easily felled via a simple cut. Sectional dismantling is used which involves making several cuts to slice the tree into small sections which can be brought back to the ground safely. Using this method will allow tree surgeons to fell trees that pose risks to nearby buildings in a safe manner.

do i need council approval to remove a tree?

Although we advocate non-removal of trees, but we also know for a fact that this isn’t always possible especially when it involves safety challenges or damage to property. If you’re looking to remove a tree on your property, then you should probably confirm whether or not you’d require a council approval.

In the UK, if the tree you want removed has a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) placed on it, then before you’ll be able to perform any sort of work to the tree ( be it cutting a branch or felling/ removing the tree), you must obtain a permission from the council.

The Tree Preservation Order is created by local planning authorities such as a district, borough or national park with the aim of providing adequate protection to trees which provide amenity values to the public. Any act to the TPO protected tree such as cutting down, topping, lopping, uprooting or wilful damage considered a criminal offence. In other words, if the tree on your property is visible and is enjoyed by the public then there’s a possibility that there’s a TPO placed on it. To confirm whether or not this is the case, you can reach out to your local council’s tree officer for more information.

You will need to fill out an application form and submit to your local authority in order to request permission of remove a tree. In the event whereby you happen to reside in a Conservation Area, the same rules applies as TPO-placed trees but you don’t necessarily need to have TPO placed on them.

If the tree is in your garden without a TPO placed on it and you do not live in a Conservation Area, then you would not need to apply for permission to have it removed.

how to remove a conifer tree?

Have you being considering the options available to you for removing the conifers around your home? Or perhaps you’re just planning to raise some structures in an area where you have lots of conifer trees. Regardless of your reason for wanting to remove a conifer tree, you’ve come to the right place!

There are multiple options to remove a conifer tree based on the one that best suits your needs. Some individuals are okay with felling the tree and leaving the stumps behind, while others don’t just want both the tree and the stumps so they poison the tree and subject the stumps to a quick rotting process.

lThe Physical Method

This basically involves felling the trees with the help of powerful machines and other tools. Let’s take a look!

• Early preparation. Get your chainsaw ready alongside your pruning tools as well as other equipments that can prove to be useful.

• Determine the direction you want the tree to fall. You must ensure there’s no passerby risk or risk of damage to any property whatsoever.

• Cut down the trunk. Put your chainsaw to use. First cut doen the branches and twigs before felling the tree.

• Choose your cutting technique depending on the tree’s size, slope and chainsaw available.

• Check for possible infestation before removing the conifer tree.

• Remove the conifer stumps by grinding the stumps out (use a grinder) and setting fire to consume the stumps.

lThe Chemical Method

To carry out this process, you need to first cut down the large tree branches using a chainsaw. Once done, cut off a portion around the circumference of the trunk below the lower branches, close to the root. Leave the bark’s strips connected to the conifer tree to expose the inner tissue.

Mix the chemicals and apply into the conifer tree directly until the whole surface is covered. This will make the conifer tree to die off gradually for a couple of weeks.
