The Purpose of Tree Surgeons
All living organisms are susceptible to damage, injury and diseases just like human’s trees and plants are no exception. Tree surgeons are the best individuals to deal with attending problems with trees and plants as our own tree surgeons Nottingham team know. These are professional arborists that have expert knowledge of specific diseases and ailments that affect certain types of trees and the best methods in which to treat them. As well as being able to provide various other skilled tree services that may prove beneficial such as felling, pruning, cutting or removal.
Trees can suffer from a number of ailments and when infected with certain diseases it can cause severe stress to their life as well as harm and even death. Honey fungus, blight, and powdery mildew are just some of the diseases that could infect your tree. For specific diseases and other issues such as visible damage and impairments, you should always hire a tree surgeon. Their aim is to ensure the survival of your tree(s) and they will provide the best care, treatment, and maintenance to make that possible.
It is not always easy to find a qualified practitioner in this field and can be daunting if you haven’t had to do so before. Below is a quick guide in how to hire a quality tree surgeon for any type of tree services you may need.
Finding out about registration and insurance
Another name for this kind of expert is an arborist. Therefore, you should not feel surprised when someone introduces himself to you as an arborist. Instead, you should ask him if he belongs to any local or national arborist associations. Some well-known UK associations are Arboricultural Association Approved Contractor and (CHAS) The Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme and Trustmark.

If they are then you are likely to be dealing with a professional so you should perhaps further enquire about their training. For example, did he study the management and cultivation of different trees especially the one you want him to handle.
Insurance is also critical when someone is working in this field because not just in case someone is affected by an injury whilst working but in case any damage occurs to yours or any adjacent property during the course of any work that is being carried out. Or it may be a case that you notice damage to your property occurring sometime after work has been carried out in the case of a tree being removed for example and structural integrity nearby has been compromised. Insurance and works of guarantee protect you and the company dealing with your work when such issues arise.
Local authorities are also particular about the trees you can plant in your home or business. They also want to know what kind of equipment, fertilisers, and pesticides your arborist will be using to treat your trees. Therefore, it is critical for you to make sure that the person you hire is following all the laws and guidelines set by your local authority. Remember, it is important to exercise caution when choosing a tree surgeon even though doing so may be a bit exhaustive.
Here are some of the other tree services that tree surgeons can provide;
A tree surgeon will remove dead, infected, or diseased branches so that they preserve your tree. They can straighten young tree so that it grows without damaging any property around it. For example, they will make sure it does not obstruct light standards or any wiring. Additionally, they will make sure that the branches do not interfere with your chimney, roof, or gutters. They will also thin out the inner branches of your tree so that all the leaves in the tree receive an adequate amount of sunlight.
