LEADING TREE SURGERY THROUGHOUT NORFOLK

Tree Removal

Whilst we always try to maintain a healthy tree, there will be occasions where it’s location or health can pose a risk to your property. At Dr Stump, we use state of the art equipment to provide tree removal services with minimal disruption to you or your home.

In large areas, tree felling is the popular method to cut down a tree by cutting at the base. This requires a lot of surrounding space for it to fall, and is not ideal for trees that are growing next to houses or other structures. For tight spaces, our team offers sectional dismantling. Using climbers or a mobile platform, the tree is gradually taken apart to avoid damage to surroundings.

Maintenance

It’s always best to keep your tree healthy and tidy to avoid issues in the future. With crown reduction, crown thinning, lifting and cleaning services available, the team is accredited to remove branches or deadwood, or shape tree crowns to maximise your garden space.

Whether you need to improve lighting in your home, create space for cars, or reduce the risk of fallen branches, our Norwich tree surgeons can tackle disruptive trees, offering cost effective solutions to keep you safe.

Tree Pruning

Pruning isn’t as simple as it looks – cutting a tree or hedge in the wrong season can place stress on the plant and result in disaster. Leave it to the experts to keep things neat and tidy with hedge trimming, pollarding, planting, and tree care advice.

Pollarding is a method of pruning that keeps trees and shrubs smaller than they would naturally grow. It is normally started once a tree or shrub reaches a certain height, and regular pollarding will restrict the plant to that height. The initial removal of the top of a young tree at a prescribed height to encourage multi stem branching from that point, or “bolling”.

Arboricultural Consultants

Over a Decade of Experience

With more than ten years of hands-on experience, our skilled team offers more than just tree care. Need advice on a tree survey or planning applications? We’re here to provide expert guidance tailored to your needs.

DOMESTIC

We understand that handling trees can often be a daunting task for homeowners. If the job isn’t done properly, there’s a risk of damage to your home and neighbouring properties. A tree protection order also has further complications with council planning and intervention.

We at Dr Stump have over ten years of experience and provide a bespoke service to each of our customers. We want you to feel safe and comfortable throughout the process, so we conduct a risk assessment before deciding on a course of action for you.

We have also made several efforts to consider the environment with our work and are considerate of your home and neighbouring areas when conducting tree services. 

Our thorough quotation process is transparent with no hidden fees, meaning you are always aware of our costs. 

COMMERCIAL

We have a strong knowledge and experience of conducting work within a commercial environment with a significantly larger size, scope, and complexity than domestic projects. We’re well-versed in delivering tight schedules and operating within sensitive work sites and considering environmental, legal or health and safety factors for your business. Additionally, we offer a fast track service for urgent or time sensitive projects.

As tree surgeons with arboricultural expertise, we can provide a practical and affordable solution to plans affected by habitat management or planning policies. 

PUBLIC LAND

Our Norwich tree surgeons are passionate about caring for the ecosystem and community within our public spaces and take additional precautions before carrying out works on public land. 

This often includes consulting an ecologist to ensure we can mitigate impact on native fauna – for example, we will schedule work around bird nesting season, avoid interfering with bat habitats, and use battery operated tools to avoid noise pollution in quiet areas.

In an effort to conserve Norfolk’s local wildlife, we install wildlife shelters to increase local biodiversity, such as bat and bird boxes, woodland shelter piles of deadwood for invertebrates, and habitats for lichen and mushrooms. 

We’re proud to say we’re able to care for the environment whilst carrying out works to a quality standard.
