Tree work, start to finish.
Every job is different. Here is what we do most, from a single overgrown tree in a back garden to clearance work beside a busy road.
Tree removal
Trees that are dead, dangerous or simply in the wrong place, taken down safely and in a controlled way.
Pruning and crown reduction
More light, less weight and a healthier shape, without hacking the tree back further than it needs.
Sectional dismantling
Tight gardens, roofs and fences close by. The tree comes down piece by piece, from a platform or on ropes.
Roadside and commercial
Overhanging trees on roads, car parks and business sites, with signage set out before work begins.
Three things worth checking.
Is the tree protected?
Some trees in Cardiff are covered by a Tree Preservation Order or sit in a conservation area. Work on them usually needs consent from, or notice to, Cardiff Council first. Will can help you check before anything is booked.
Are birds nesting?
Active bird nests are protected by law. Nesting season runs roughly from March to August, so we check the tree before work starts and plan around any nests we find.
Can you send photos?
A few photos of the tree, plus how we get to it, helps Will understand the job straight away. Show the whole tree and anything close by, like roofs, fences or cables.
Rope and platform work
Planned properly, left tidy.
Will Rees Tree Surgery is a Cardiff tree surgery business run by Will. Every job starts with a proper look at the tree, the access and everything around it, so the work is planned before a single cut is made.
Will holds City & Guilds NPTC Level 2 certificates in chainsaw maintenance and cross-cutting, and in felling small trees. On site, we work from an aerial platform or on ropes, depending on what the job needs.

When to book tree work.
Most tree work can be done at any time of year, but some jobs suit certain seasons better.
Winter
With the leaves gone, the shape of the tree is easy to see. A good time for pruning and crown reduction on many trees.
Pruning seasonSpring
Birds start nesting, so every tree is checked first. If you want work done before summer, it pays to get in touch early.
Nesting checksSummer
In full leaf, dead and weak branches stand out clearly. A good time to spot problems and remove deadwood.
Deadwood checksAutumn
Before the winter winds arrive, have weak limbs and trees close to the house looked at and made safe.
