Official description

T1 - 1x False Acacia / Black Locust - Sectionally dismantle, fell, and remove to ground level using appropriate dismantling and lowering techniques to ensure the safe and controlled removal of all sections in accordance with industry best practice. Treat the cut stump with a selective herbicide in the form of Eco Plugs (glyphosate) to reduce the likelihood of regrowth. T2 - 1x Common Beech Tree - Reduce the overall canopy of the tree as follows: Reduce the height of the tree by approximately 2.0 metres, leaving a final overall height of 8.0 metres. Reduce the radial crown spread by approximately 2.0 metres, leaving a final radial spread of approximately 6.0 m at all compass points. All works shall retain the tree?s main framework and natural form, maintaining a high proportion of the foliage-bearing structure. Individual pruning wounds shall not exceed 80 mm in diameter. Crown lift by removing secondary and sub-lateral branch growth only, to provide a vertical clearance of approximately 2.50 metres between ground level and the lowest foliage tips, thereby achieving the desired clearance above the driveway & garage roof. All works shall retain the natural form of the crown and avoid the creation of large pruning wounds. Individual pruning wounds shall not exceed 40 mm in diameter. All cuts shall be made at suitable growth points in accordance with BS 3998:2010 Tree Work ? Recommendations.
