Arboricultural Services:
JAG Timber undertake all arboricultural operations. The use of modern equipment and safe working practices enable solutions for even the most complicated tasks to be found.
Felling
Including sectional felling and dismantling, with safe lowering of all debris.
Crown Shaping
Carried out to ‘make safe’ unbalanced trees where their continued presence is of importance.
Crown Reduction
A reduction in the current overall size of the crown.
Crown Thinning
Aims to produce a well spaced and balanced branch structure within the existing crown by removing small non structural branches. This can help reduce the potential damaging effects of wind during storms.
Crown Cleaning
Involves the removal of dead dying or diseased branches.
Crown Lifting
Is the removal of branches from the lowest part of the crown, often carried out to reduce interference of branch structures with human activities.
Pruning
Carried out during the juvenile stage of a trees development in order to produce a tree which once mature will be free from structural weakness.
Pollarding
Most often seen on willows, but applicable to many species, where all limbs are removed to the main stem.
Coppicing
Cutting of the entire tree to near to ground level on a cyclical basis, depending on species this can be between 5-30 years.
Stump Grinding
Mechanical removal of the tree stump to a depth of up to 30cm below ground level.
