We Love Trees! And We Know That They Need Help To Stay healthy too. Trees provide shade, homes for local wildlife and a bit of fresh air, too.

However, all of these benefits come at a cost; because, like all living creatures, trees need some tending to, and will fall unwell without adequate care.

That’s where Nottingham Tree Surgeons come in. One of the most crucial aspects of tree maintenance, which people often neglect to pay attention to, is to actively monitor for early signs of potential tree trouble. Your trees should look healthy. They will generally possess sturdy branches, numerous green leaves, and a solid trunk.

However, if your tree appears unusual, it may be telling you that something is not quite right.

Signs can include a tree with dead or shedding branches which can indicates a tree not getting enough water, or losing too much water. In some cases this can be due to root damage, but more commonly the issue is simply that the tree has not been adequately cared for or watered. In other cases, leaves turning brown or yellow for no apparent reason, outside of the autumnal season, is a definite indicator that the tree is unwell.

You’ll also want to inspect the trunk and bark. Cracking, splitting bark, peeling bark or even the growth of fungi can be signs of infection or decay within the tree. If you notice mushrooms growing at the base of the tree this can suggest there is root rot or decaying roots.

Leaning more than usual, especially if near the home or fence, should always be a cause for concern and the tree could be dangerously unstable.

Pests and Diseases A wide range of tiny organisms can be found living both in and around trees; and whilst the vast majority cause no harm, some (including specific beetles, aphids, and caterpillars) may have a damaging effect on the health of your trees. You may find holes or burrows in the trunk, chewing in the leaves or a constant outpouring of sticky, sap like material oozing from the trunk or any branches that are infected. These are indications that something is not well on the inside, of that of the tree itself. Many trees that fall ill may suffer from diseases that can spread from tree to tree.

You may experience leaf spot and discolouring or unsightly patches of decay.

Some fungi will spread rapidly through an infection if not treated, leading to significant harm for all nearby trees. This is the reason it is important to contact Nottingham Tree Surgeons at the earliest possible opportunity if you suspect disease or pests within your trees. Regular tree checks are another important practice that should be performed as a preventative measure to maintain the well-being of your trees.

Just as the best treatment for many health problems is early intervention, it’s often best to identify any issues before they become a major threat to the longevity of the trees, and before potential issues affect other trees and even structures around your home. The roots of a tree will extend beyond the tree canopy and these root systems may affect structures within and around your home and garden; including pavement slabs or even driveways if they rise up through the ground surface. The large, extensive roots of a tree can even block drainage and underground pipes, causing a variety of different problems that can damage your property.

While not all trees present problems for your garden due to their roots, it can still be very beneficial to ask for expert opinion when you plan to plant new trees or already have old and very large trees very close to buildings.

The team at Nottingham Tree Surgeons can help you to decide on the right place for new tree plantations, and will also be able to identify any potential issues with trees near existing structures. Tree pruning can also prevent problems such as unwanted growth, storm damage and the appearance of unsightly dead branches. Tree pruning can improve the appearance of your trees by tidying up and enhancing their structure. It will also allow more sunlight and air to circulate through the tree which contributes to a more healthy and balanced growing environment for your trees.

If any branches have become overly long or heavy they could snap under high winds, leading to damage to your property, as well as an increased risk to personal safety.

This can also mean the removal of dead or hazardous limbs, and the prevention of storm damage by pruning and removing those branches that have a tendency to break in winds or from other stresses and strains. Tree pruning typically should be carried out every one to three years, although this will depend largely on the type and the growth rate of the individual tree. Some trees require much more regular pruning than others – our team can give advice on this once they’ve had a chance to see the state of your trees.
