Tree Care Service

Tree Care

How do we maintain the long-term health and strength of our trees through proper care? At Tree Surgeon Hereford, we focus on consistent upkeep as the foundation. Pruning helps eliminate diseased or dead limbs, encouraging vigorous growth. Effective pest control is another key component—routine inspections let us catch infestations early and apply treatments before major harm occurs. Seasonal tree care is equally important. Spring fertilisation stimulates development, while autumn mulching insulates roots from harsh winter conditions. By combining these essential practices, we ensure your trees remain healthy and resilient all year. Our experience in professional tree care means your trees receive reliable, knowledgeable attention at every stage.

Tree Planting

While maintaining existing trees is essential, planting new ones adds environmental and aesthetic value. At Tree Surgeon Hereford, we carefully select tree species best suited to your site’s soil, light, and climate conditions, ensuring strong, lasting growth. Our planting process uses established techniques—accurate depth, correct spacing, and soil conditioning to support healthy root systems. Timing also plays a crucial role; we plant during optimal seasons to increase establishment and survival rates. Our methodical approach guarantees the trees we plant today will enhance the environment and contribute to Hereford’s green spaces for generations.

Tree Fertilisation

Proper tree fertilisation supplies vital nutrients that support health and long-term vitality. At Tree Surgeon Hereford, we tailor our approach to each tree, starting with a soil assessment to identify deficiencies. Depending on the results, we apply the most effective fertiliser—whether granular, liquid, or slow-release. Applying nutrients at the right time is critical; we typically recommend fertilising in early spring and late autumn to align with natural growth cycles. This timing improves nutrient absorption and helps trees grow stronger. With careful attention to both soil and seasonal needs, our fertilisation practices keep your trees robust throughout the year.

Tree Health

Tree health care involves more than just nutrients—it requires a complete strategy that addresses all contributing factors. At Tree Surgeon Hereford, we focus on regular health checks to spot disease early before it spreads. Root care is also a priority, as strong root systems are vital for stability and nutrient uptake. We adjust our maintenance plans seasonally, accounting for shifting conditions and potential risks. Spring and summer may bring pest pressures, while winter requires root protection and structural assessments. By staying proactive and adaptive, we protect the health of each tree and promote resilience across your landscape.

Tree Risk Assessment

At Tree Surgeon Hereford, we use directional pruning to manage tree growth safely and efficiently, especially near buildings or overhead lines. This technique helps guide trees to grow away from potential hazards, reducing the likelihood of future damage or removals. One key benefit of directional pruning is that it often eliminates the need for more invasive procedures later. We time our pruning based on the tree’s growth cycle—typically during late winter dormancy for best regrowth in spring. Our team carefully assesses each tree to determine the best pruning method, ensuring safety while supporting natural growth.
