Our internal system teaches from the basics for a grounds person through accurate tree care operations to technical rigging of a huge tree for a crew leader tree surgeon. You can rest assured that our tree surgeons are not allowed to undertake a type of work until we are entirely happy they are delivering the best standard of workmanship.
We undertake the removal or pruning of at least 20 large (60ft +) trees and often up to 80 large trees per week. So we are highly experienced and practised at all forms of rigging and dismantling trees in the safest possible ways.
Our climbing and lowering ropes, pulleys, karabiners, etc are regularly safety checked and our tree surgeons will often be using the latest climbing tools. Clients often like to watch us dismantle large trees with ropes as it is fascinating to see how we manoeuvre branches in mid-air and how one man can control such a large branch with only his fingertips!
