Another repeat customer in Yately today 😊 was almost exactly a year ago we were here can’t believe how quickly that has gone! Even stranger is we had exactly the same weather of thunder and hail stones to get us through the job but when completed we finished with sunshine!

We are seeing a lot of beech trees failing from meripilus. This parasitic white rot disease will weaken the roots causing a high chance of wind throw. Most commonly found on beech it’s also seen on birch, oak, london plane and Norway spruce. Please look out for the large brackets earning it the nickname giant polypore ! that grow on the roots of the tree oftern away from the stem and you can also look out for a thin crown and a lack of foliage which will get worse as disease progresses.if you have any queries or are concerned please don’t hesitate to give us a call.

Today we are enjoying the sun ! And also removing 30 Scots pine stumps with the stump grinder from a clear fell site ready for raking the site with an 8t excavator in preperation for planting. We take on any stump removal jobs large or small.
