As we head into autumn, Dave Treanor from Renfrewshire-based Tree Wise Tree Surgeons, parts with some invaluable arboreal advice.

At Tree Wise Tree Surgeons, we are expecting this autumn to be prolific for fungi which can often give clues as to the health of your tree. Some are insignificant and even edible, but others can weaken trees and make them unpredictable.

As a tree owner, you have a legal duty of care to have your trees periodically inspected to gauge their health and condition so that you know they are safe and not a risk to people or property.

A great time to have a tree inspected is after leaf fall, as this enables the crown to be examined with enhanced clarity. Therefore, it is easier to observe any damage which might have occurred due to high winds or heavy rainfall that was previously obscured by the leaves.

Sometimes, we unfortunately must remove trees but always ensure that we notify the local authority in the case of any protection. Before this, we try to offer various tree surgery solutions to ensure the longevity of your tree so that it works better for you in your garden.

Get in touch if you feel like chatting about trees. It’s what we love to do, and we are local too!
