Tree Care Service

Tree Care

Caring for trees effectively means applying consistent and knowledgeable maintenance to support their health and lifespan. At Tree Surgeon Exeter, we follow a routine of scheduled upkeep that includes essential practices like pruning to remove damaged or diseased limbs, which stimulates healthy development. Pest control is another core element—we carry out routine inspections to catch infestations early and prevent serious harm. Seasonal attention also plays a key role. In spring, we boost vitality with targeted fertilisation, while in autumn, we apply mulch to shield roots from cold conditions. When combined, these strategies ensure Exeter’s trees remain strong and vibrant throughout the year. Our expertise at Tree Surgeon Exeter ensures your trees receive care that sustains their beauty and structural integrity over time.

Tree Planting

Beyond maintaining existing trees, planting new ones is a proactive step toward enhancing Exeter’s environment and landscape. At Tree Surgeon Exeter, we place strong emphasis on selecting the right tree species suited to your site’s conditions, improving the odds of long-term success. We use refined planting practices, paying attention to depth, spacing, and soil readiness to promote strong root establishment. Timing also matters—planting during optimal seasonal windows increases survival and healthy growth. By applying our experience in tree selection and planting techniques, we help cultivate a greener, more enduring landscape that benefits the local ecosystem for years to come.

Tree Fertilisation

Tree fertilisation is vital for supporting nutrient uptake and sustaining long-term tree health. At Tree Surgeon Exeter, we begin with soil testing to pinpoint any nutritional gaps, then choose the most effective fertiliser—be it slow-release, liquid, or granular—based on the specific requirements of each tree. Timing plays a crucial role; we typically recommend applying fertiliser in early spring and late autumn, when trees are most capable of absorbing nutrients efficiently. Our fertilisation process strengthens trees from root to crown, ensuring they remain healthy, resilient, and capable of withstanding Exeter’s changing seasons.

Tree Health

True tree health requires a broad strategy that goes beyond surface care. At Tree Surgeon Exeter, we adopt a thorough approach that includes routine health checks to spot diseases early, allowing for prompt treatment before they escalate. We also focus on root vitality, which is essential for nutrient uptake and anchoring the tree. Each season presents its own care requirements, and we adjust our techniques accordingly to protect and nurture trees year-round. By addressing tree health from the ground up, we foster strong, stable trees that enhance both safety and appearance across Exeter’s landscapes.

Tree Risk Assessment

At Tree Surgeon Exeter, we rely on directional pruning as a key method for managing how trees grow and interact with their surroundings. This technique helps us steer growth away from buildings, roads, or power lines, reducing long-term risks and minimising the need for major interventions. One major benefit of directional pruning is that it prevents future structural conflicts while supporting healthier, more natural tree shapes. We follow best seasonal pruning practices—for example, pruning in late winter encourages vigorous spring regrowth. Our team evaluates each tree carefully to determine the safest and most beneficial course of action, keeping Exeter’s environment safe while supporting healthy tree development.
