Trees are a wonderful addition to any garden. They provide precious shade on hot days. They add beauty to our surroundings and they’re vital to our wellbeing.
But trees that aren’t properly pruned can be a nuisance. They can obstruct driveways and paths, fill gutters with leaves, stop light coming through windows, create unwelcome noise, and overhang neighbouring properties.
Even worse, they can come into contact with electrical and other cabling. And loose branches caused by severe storms and heavy winds are downright dangerous.
