Frequently Asked Questions
When is tree removal necessary?
Tree removal is typically required for several reasons, including:
-
Safety/Hazard: The tree is dead, diseased, unstable, or poses a risk to people or property (e.g., leaning heavily, major decay).
-
Damage: Roots are damaging foundations, driveways, or underground utilities.
-
Obstruction: The tree is blocking light, interfering with construction/development, or growing too close to power lines.
-
Disease Control: To prevent the spread of serious disease to other trees.
Do I need permission to remove a tree in Salisbury?
It depends. You generally do not need permission for an unprotected tree on private land.
However, you must check for:
-
Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs): If a tree has a TPO, you need written consent from the Local Planning Authority (LPA).
-
Conservation Areas: If your property is in a Conservation Area, you must give the LPA six weeks’ written notice before carrying out work.
Always check with your local council before proceeding. A professional tree surgeon can advise and help with the application process.
How much does tree removal cost?
Costs vary significantly based on several factors:
-
Tree Size: Taller/larger diameter trees require more time and specialised equipment, increasing the cost.
-
Location/Access: Trees in restricted spaces, near buildings, or with difficult access are more expensive due to the complexity of the dismantling process.9
-
Tree Condition: Hazardous, decayed, or storm-damaged trees may require high-risk techniques.
-
Additional Services: Whether you require stump grinding, root removal, or complete waste/debris removal.
A qualified arborist must inspect the tree to give an accurate, free quote.
Do you provide free quotes?
Yes. We offer free, no-obligation quotes and expert advice so you can make informed decisions about your tree care.
Can I remove the tree myself?
We strongly advise against DIY tree removal. It is extremely dangerous and should only be performed by qualified, insured professionals. Risks include serious injury, property damage, and legal liability.11 Professional tree surgeons have the necessary training, safety equipment, and insurance to handle the work safely and efficiently.
Is stump removal or grinding included?
The removal of the visible tree trunk is standard, but the remaining stump and roots are typically a separate, optional service called stump grinding. We can discuss whether you want the stump removed to below ground level during your consultation.
