Tree Health Care & Soil Remediation

The health and preservation of trees has become increasingly difficult as the threats to trees have continued to develop and diversify.

There are various agents which affect a tree’s health, from increasing population and globalisation to urbanisation. As a result, we have seen the spread of problems such as:

• Drought
• Waterlogging
• Soil compaction
• Pathogens and diseases – for example: Conifer Aphids and Horse Chestnut Leaf Miner, Ash dieback and Oak processionary moth.

Under such conditions, a robust and well managed tree protection plan helps to ensure the preservation of trees and the landscape whether through conservation or replacement.

If you believe you have a tree suffering from ill health, please get in touch to discuss a site visit where we can recommend the best course of action for the tree’s preservation.

We provide a range of services needed for ensuring tree health. We are highly experienced in plant health care, including tree identification, diagnosis and treatment.

Through the development of tree protection plans we can bring about increased awareness of tree health which leads to better preservation of trees and plants.

A tree protection plan looks at the wellness of each tree, its stage of life and how it is affected by its surrounding environment.

Even if a tree appears to be healthy, you can always consider getting an assessment and protection plan in place to maintain it.

Soil Remediation

Soil remediation is a term for various processes which can improve soil conditions for the tree. In short, it makes soil better for the plants and trees that sit within it.

For any tree in decline or succumbing to stresses from its surroundings, we can carry out a soil assessment and create a condition improvement plan.

One of our main techniques for soil remediation is Air Spading. This can be used for soil decompaction, for example after heavy construction where machinery may have been driving over root systems.

Soil Assessment & Condition Improvement Plan

Soil is very important and is often overlooked when tree health is considered. If you notice a decline in the health of a tree then getting it checked is recommended.

For any tree in decline, whether it is  succumbing to stresses from its surroundings or in need of a tree fungus treatment plan, we can help.

By carrying out a soil assessment and condition improvement plan, we can greatly improve the quality of the growing medium in which the tree is standing.
