🍂🌳 Autumn is here – is your garden ready for the change in season?

As the leaves turn golden and the days get shorter, autumn is a great time to take a closer look at the trees and hedges around your property.

Here are a few things to consider this autumn:

🌿 Shrubs and hedges – With the main bird nesting season coming to an end, autumn can be a good time to plan the removal of unwanted shrubs and hedges. Remember to check for any active nests before starting work.

🍂 Dead or damaged wood – Removing deadwood can help reduce potential hazards and keep your trees in good condition.

🌳 Tree and hedge maintenance – Autumn is a great time to plan ahead and get your garden looking its best before winter arrives.

🏡 Storm preparation – If you have concerns about a tree near your house, shed, greenhouse or driveway, it’s worth getting it checked before the winter weather sets in.

At R Watson Tree Surgery, we provide professional tree care across North Lancashire, helping you keep your trees safe, healthy and well maintained. 🌳

In the last few posts we've talked about why we may perform stump grinding and what we will assess when looking at your stump but what happens after the stumps been removed?

Following stump grinding, you’ll be left with a mixture of wood chips and soil where the stump once stood.

Depending on your plans, we can:

🌲Leave the grindings as a natural mulch
🌲Backfill the hole
🌲Remove excess grindings (where requested)
🌲Leave the area ready for turfing, planting or landscaping

We’ll discuss the best option with you before work begins.

Whether you’ve recently had a tree felled or have an old stump that’s become an eyesore, we’re happy to help!

Stumps .... so can every stump be removed? 🪵

Most tree stumps can be successfully ground out, even in confined gardens with limited access. Before starting work, we’ll assess:

- Access to the stump
- Nearby walls, fences and buildings
- Underground services where known
- The size and species of the tree
- Your plans for the area afterwards

This allows us to recommend the most suitable approach for your property.

A very autumnal day for tree work today! 🌧️🌳

Despite the rain, we carried out a reduction on this tree, carefully reducing the crown while retaining its natural shape and leaving a balanced result.

As we move into autumn, it’s a great time to start thinking about tree pruning, reductions and hedge maintenance. With summer growth coming to an end, we’re now taking bookings for autumn and winter work throughout Lancaster, Morecambe and the surrounding areas.

If you have a tree or hedge that has got a little too large over the summer, get in touch for advice and a free quotation.

Trees aren't just for us! 🐦

Trees and hedges provide valuable food, shelter and nesting habitat for a huge range of wildlife.

That's why responsible tree work means considering what's living in and around the tree before work begins.

🌿 Good tree care should work alongside nature wherever possible.

🌳 Tree Tip Tuesday

Thinking about making your tree smaller? Don't just "top" it!

Removing large sections of the crown can cause excessive regrowth, weaken the tree and leave it looking unnatural.

A carefully planned crown reduction can achieve a similar result while maintaining the tree's natural shape and structure. 🌿

Need to reduce the size of a tree? We can help.

🌳 Tree Tip

Not every tree that looks untidy needs removing!

Careful pruning can often improve a tree's shape, health and safety while allowing it to remain an important part of your garden. 🌿

🪺Hedge & Tree Work – A Quick Reminder

With the 1st of September fast approaching, now is a good time to start thinking about those overgrown hedges and trees.

The seasonal restriction on cutting agricultural hedgerows in England runs until 31st August, helping to protect nesting birds and wildlife. From 1st September, this restriction comes to an end. This restriction doesn't apply to your garden hedges.

However, active bird nests remain protected by law, so always check for nesting birds before carrying out any substantial work that may disturb active nests.

At R Watson Tree Surgery, we take care to work responsibly and avoid disturbing active nests.
