December is shaping up to be an exceptionally busy period, as companies focus on organising their workload ahead of the festive season.
This week, one of our dedicated teams has been actively engaged in preparing a development site for construction. Their efforts have included clearing boundaries and levelling the land, ensuring that everything is in place and ready for the next stage of building.

Autumn offers an ideal opportunity for the removal of trees and vegetation that may pose a risk to public safety.

In this instance, a White Poplar tree was identified as having the potential to fall or drop dead branches, which could endanger members of the public. To mitigate this risk, the tree was carefully removed by the one of our teams.

All wood resulting from the removal process will be recycled into biomass. This approach ensures that the timber is put to good use, helping to heat homes and provide power for the electrical grid.

By converting the tree into biomass, the project not only addresses public safety concerns but also contributes positively to sustainable energy solutions.

We’re regularly called to jobs where others struggle – this one included the removal of a willow tree on the side of the Middle Level’s water ways. The tree was too difficult to fell in the garden due to the amount of space for access and proximity to the house. We cleared the work with the Middle Level’s commission and brought in specialist equipment to remove the tree across the water way. Including Safety Boat.

Another interesting 'no climb' tree removal. This one included power line isolation and the removal of two trees, including stumps, so that houses can be built.

This Ash tree has been reduced - due to it dropping old limbs and becoming a hazard to the public, it's now set to extend its life instead of felling. This sort of cut back stimulated new growth.

Using equipment adapted from other industries can provide solutions. In this edition of Institute of Water (IWater) magazine, we highlight the modification to a wood chipper to help in recycling water pipe.

Before clearing a site, we always do an ecological survey to make sure there are no nesting birds: this drainage clearance came up clear, so work was carried out by one of our teams to help prevent flooding.

Another one of our teams extending the life of a tree – and also maintaining the safety of the people passing from falling dead branches. All waste goes to biomas: for heating homes and power generation.

One of our teams out pollarding large a poplar today - this is a form of tree pruning where the upper branches are removed, forcing new growth from the main trunk. It extends the life of the tree rather than cutting it down, it also increases public safety from falling branches.

One of our teams out on a difficult tree removal: having two buildings underneath - not only more precise, but also using 'no climb' for safety.
