Dead wood is defined as dead, dying or diseased branches on a tree. Unfortunately dead wood is often hard to spot and needs an expert to accurately diagnose.
Removing dead wood is a complicated task as you must know exactly which parts of the tree to remove and which parts to keep.
When you are removing dead wood, the tree can quickly callous over to try and protect itself. Much like with pruning, this can lead to pests and parasites entering the tree.
Removing dead wood is important as a tree will expel all its energy trying to protect itself and the dying branches rather than growing properly.
To maintain the health of the tree it is recommended dead wood be removed in winter while the leaves are still on the tree, this can occur at the same time pruning is taking place.
Our arborists may also recommend the dead wood which has been removed from the tree be placed around the trunk, this is where tree can absorb between 80 - 90 per cent of their nutrients and is an important part of maintaining the ecosystem.

We will hold a small toolbox meeting with you that will confirm the job details before starting. During the course of the removal you will notice our team communication throughout the process. We have one team in the tree and one team clearing the debris on the ground. Once the removal is complete the team tidy the area and return any moved property back to its original position (tables, chairs and pot plants etc.).
When you ask for a quote, it ought to be fair and competitively priced. It is a good idea to procure two or three different estimates. This will help you decide which company you want to hire to get the job done. Additionally, this will help you make an informed decision by comparing the companies and people you will be dealing with.

Unlike other tree loppers who failed to return calls, Quinton was quick to contact me, came and quoted as he said he would, cut and cleared the tree so there was no mess. Grubbing the stump was done carefully and speedily with the site tidied well. I’m most impressed and, based on my experience, would not hesitate to recommend him and his team.
