Winchester Tree Surgeon & Hedge Services
Tree Dismantling
When a tree has overgrown its space or has become diseased it may need removal and disposal. We specialise in this kind of work and have all of the equipment to carry it out safely and efficiently.
We'll take any waste away with us, or we can even cut it into logs for your own use.
Hedge Trimming
Established hedges require trimming to keep them dense and compact. Formal hedges require more frequent trimming than informal hedges.
New hedges require formative pruning for their first couple of years after planting. Formative pruning is usually carried out in winter or spring.
After this, maintenance trimming is carried out, usually once a year for informal hedges and twice a year for formal hedges. Some formal hedges may need three cuts a year. Maintenance trimming is generally carried out between spring and summer.
For more information on Hedge Trimming visit the Royal Horticultural Society website.
Stump Grinding and Removal
When trees are felled or fall, their stumps should be removed to prevent suckering and fungal root rots.
Tree stumps can be left in the ground after felling but this can lead to problems with suckering where new shoots arise from the trunk and roots.
Completely dead stumps won't form suckers, but they can play host to root diseases such as honey fungus, so aren't worth leaving in and taking the risk.
For more information on stump removal visit the Royal Horticultural Society webite
Fruit Tree Pruning
Winter pruning of apple and pear trees is essential to ensure a good crop the following year and to prevent branches getting congested. Pruning should be carried out when the tree is dormant, between leaf fall and bud burst (usually between November and early March).
If you have an old tree that has not been baring fruit it is often possible to bring it back to life with the right pruning.

Thank you for making such a neat job of our trees! We appreciated the professional approach, great communication and arriving exactly on time. Everything was done very efficiently without a trace left on the ground of all that had been done. You took note of all our requests and gave us the result we were hoping for. We can now relax and enjoy the garden! Thank you. Mr & Mrs Millar.
The guys at C&D trees were exceptionally professional and did a great job. When they left the house was actually cleaner than when they arrived. I've already recommended them to a friend. Thanks.
