Signs You Need Tree Surgery

Brittle branches that snap easily, no leaves in growing season, or peeling bark indicate decay

Sudden leaning or exposed roots on one side suggest instability and potential falling risk

Pest Infestation

Visible insects, holes in trunk, sawdust around base indicate damaging pest activity

Fungal Growth

Mushrooms or conks on trunk or roots signal internal decay and structural weakness

Cracks in Trunk

Deep splits or cracks in trunk or major branches indicate structural failure risk

Too Close to Building

Branches touching roof or walls, roots damaging foundations require professional management

Conservation Areas

Trees in conservation areas have special protection. You must notify the local council 6 weeks before cutting down, uprooting, topping, or lopping any tree over 75mm diameter (measured at 1.5m height).

📋 Required Notice:

Council has 6 weeks to decide whether to issue a TPO. If no TPO is issued, work can proceed after notice period.

Neighbour's Trees

Tree Health & Maintenance Tips

Keeping Trees Healthy

Proper Watering

Deep watering during drought, especially for young trees. 25-30 gallons weekly for newly planted trees.

Mulching

3-4 inch layer around base (not touching trunk). Retains moisture and regulates soil temperature.

Soil Care

Test soil pH every 2-3 years. Aerate compacted soil. Add organic matter annually.

Regular Pruning

Remove dead/diseased branches promptly. Professional pruning every 3-5 years maintains structure.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Mulch Volcanoes

Piling mulch against trunk causes rot and disease

Topping Trees

Severe cutting creates weak growth and shortens tree life

Ignoring Warning Signs

Delaying treatment of disease/pests allows spread

Over-Pruning

Removing more than 25% of canopy stresses the tree

Wrong Season Pruning

Spring pruning causes excessive sap loss

Soil Compaction

Building/parking near trees damages root systems

DIY Tree Work

High risk of injury and improper technique damage

Professional Tree Health Assessments Available

Certified arborists provide comprehensive tree surveys identifying issues before they become serious problems
