Tree surgery being carried out in Fleet, Hampshire

Fleet is roughly eight miles north-west of Farnham and is one of our busiest areas outside the town itself. It is a prosperous commuter town with generous plot sizes, and that combination means a lot of large, well-established gardens with trees to match.

The older parts of Fleet - the roads running off Fleet Road, and the area around Fleet Pond - were developed when the land was still heath, and much of the original birch, oak and Scots pine was retained rather than cleared. The result is streets where mature trees sit close to houses, garages and boundaries. A good proportion of our Fleet work is crown reduction and thinning to get light back into gardens that have gradually been shaded out over thirty years.

Fleet Pond is the largest freshwater lake in Hampshire and a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and properties backing onto the reserve or the surrounding heath need a slightly more careful approach. Work close to designated sites is worth getting right, and we are happy to liaise with Hart District Council where it is relevant.

Elvetham Heath is a different proposition entirely. Built from the late nineties onwards, it was landscaped with a great deal of new planting, and those trees are now twenty to twenty-five years old - exactly the age at which formative work pays off. Getting a young tree properly shaped now prevents a much larger and more expensive problem in another two decades. We do a lot of this sort of preventative pruning on the estate.

Across Fleet generally, beech and hornbeam hedging is popular and well-suited to the soil, and we maintain a good number of them on annual or twice-yearly cycles. If you want a hedge kept properly rather than just hacked back once it has got away, that is exactly the kind of ongoing work we like to take on.

Tree Surgery in Fleet: Your Questions Answered

Can't find what you're looking for? Get in touch and we'll be happy to help.

Yes, along with central Fleet, Fleet Pond, Pondtail and Crookham Village. We are about eight miles away in Farnham.

This is one of the most common jobs we do in Fleet. Crown thinning lets more light through without changing the tree's outline, while crown reduction brings the overall height and spread down. Often a combination of the two transforms a garden without needing to remove anything.

Fleet Pond is a Site of Special Scientific Interest, so work on properties backing onto the reserve or surrounding heath needs a more considered approach. We are happy to check the position with Hart District Council before starting.

Often yes, and this is the ideal time. Estate planting from the late nineties is now reaching the age where formative pruning pays for itself many times over - correcting shape and structure now avoids far bigger and more costly work in twenty years.

Yes. Beech and hornbeam hedging does well on Fleet's soil and we maintain a lot of it on annual or twice-yearly visits. Regular cutting keeps a hedge dense and manageable rather than letting it get away.
