Tree surgery being carried out in Farnborough, Hampshire

Farnborough is about six miles north of Farnham and we work there constantly. The town divides fairly neatly for our purposes: the older, leafier streets around Farnborough Park and Farnborough Hill, the interwar and postwar housing through Cove and Southwood, and the newer business districts near the airport.

Farnborough sits on Bagshot sand, and that shows in what grows here. Scots pine, birch and rhododendron dominate the older gardens, and the pines in particular get very tall very fast. A mature Scots pine in a Farnborough Park garden can easily reach 25 metres, and because they carry their weight high they are among the trees most likely to shed limbs in a gale. We do a lot of crown work and sectional dismantling on pines in this town.

The area around Farnborough Hill and the older conservation streets has a good deal of protected planting, including some fine cedars and redwoods from the Victorian era. Rushmoor Borough Council takes a close interest in these, and consent is generally needed before any work. We handle that check as a matter of course.

Cove and Southwood are a different job again - smaller postwar gardens where the common problem is a boundary conifer hedge that was planted at two feet and is now at twenty, or a birch that has outgrown a modest plot and is dropping seed into everyone's guttering. These are quick, straightforward jobs and we can usually turn them round promptly.

One local quirk worth mentioning: properties near Farnborough Airport sometimes sit under height and obstacle considerations, and there are occasions where tree height is a genuine operational matter rather than just a garden preference. If that applies to your property we can advise on it and work to whatever height is required.

All of it - Farnborough Park, Farnborough Street, Cove, Southwood, Hawley and the areas around the town centre and the airport. We are only six miles away in Farnham.

Yes, and we do it regularly in Farnborough. Mature pines here often exceed 20 metres and carry their weight high, so they are dismantled in sections from the top down with everything rigged and lowered under control rather than dropped.

Many are. The older conservation streets around Farnborough Park and Farnborough Hill contain a lot of Victorian planting under Tree Preservation Orders. Consent from Rushmoor Borough Council is needed before work, and we check this before quoting.

Usually the height can be brought down substantially. The limit is that leylandii and most conifers will not regenerate from bare brown wood, so there is only so far the sides can be taken back. We will tell you honestly what it will look like afterwards before you commit.

As fast as we can get there, and being six miles away helps. Call us on 07557 376349 rather than emailing if a tree is down or unsafe.
