http://www.calibratree.co.uk - 01344 311 101 are Tree surgeons and Tree aborists based in Bracknell. But covering Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire, Surrey and London. here are a few urban myths about people whose job it is to cut down trees. Some may view them as slash and burn merchants cutting a swathe through the countryside. Yet nothing could be further from the truth. Reputable tree surgeons will be qualified in arboriculture. Which means they are highly knowledgeable in everything to do with trees, from planting to harvest. And which invariably means they care passionately about trees and their effect on local landscapes and ecology. Some may have a background in landscape ecology and horticulture. All of which means they are the least likely people to advocate random felling of healthy specimens which are a vital part of the local eco-system. So by buying your firewood from qualified tree surgeons, you can be sure that the logs are from a sustainable source and that there was a valid reason for the timber in question to be available to you as firewood. Much timber sold as firewood by arborists have fallen or been felled because of storm damage. After high winds, trees may have fallen or come down partially, blocking roads or making electricity supplies dangerous, possibly cutting off telephones. Local authorities will have a list of qualified specialist tree professionals in their area available to deal with such emergencies. The resulting wood is then often available for sale as logs, direct from a local, ethical supplier. Similarly, local authorities may sometimes have to take action in the case of roadside trees which have become dangerous through disease, threatening to fall onto roads or other areas where there is a high risk of causing injury or possibly fatalities. Again, councils will call on the expertise of local tree consultants to carry out risk assessments and detailed tree reports to determine the best course of action. Home owners too can employ tree surgeons to advise on health, care and maintenance of trees on their properties. A good professional tree surgeon will normally offer free advice and estimates for tree work. Set aside plenty of time for their visit, as most enjoy talking about trees! Proper professional advice may enable you to keep your beautiful oak, ash or chestnut for longer. But if they do have to be felled, a properly qualified professional tree surgeon will carry out the work carefully and skilfully, leaving you with a supply of the most efficient and environmentally friendly fuel you can get.
