Treetex manages the full tree lifecycle — from initial survey and risk assessment through to maintenance, remedial works, and safe removal. Fully qualified teams, specialist equipment, and 24/7 emergency response across the UK.
Treetex provides comprehensive BS5837 tree surveys and Visual Tree Assessment (VTA) inspections for planning applications, development sites, local authority stock management, and private estate programmes. Reports are produced by qualified arborists and presented in a clear, practical format.
Risk assessments, tree constraints plans, arboricultural impact assessments, and tree protection plans are all available where required. Our surveys provide the evidence base you need to make informed decisions about your trees.
All crown work carried out by Treetex is performed to BS3998 standards by NPTC-qualified arborists. Whether the requirement is crown reduction to manage scale, crown lifting for clearance, crown thinning to improve light and airflow, or deadwood removal for safety — we carry out the work with care and precision.
Good crown management extends tree life, reduces risk, and maintains amenity value. Treetex takes an agronomically sound approach that considers long-term tree health alongside immediate client requirements.
Safe removal of hazardous, diseased, or unwanted trees in any environment. Treetex deploys the appropriate technique for each situation — straight felling where space allows, section felling and lowering for constrained sites, or full aerial rigged dismantling for trees adjacent to structures, roads, and utilities.
All operations are planned with documented RAMS, full insurance in place, and operatives qualified to the required NPTC chainsaw and aerial work standards. Site left clean on completion.
Mechanical stump grinding to below ground level following tree removal, or as a standalone service on existing stumps. Treetex operates a range of stump grinders suited to different stump sizes and access constraints — from compact tracked machines for tight gardens to large capacity grinders for major stumps in open ground.
Ground left level and chippings available for backfill or removal. Site fully suitable for replanting, turfing, or hard surfacing following treatment.
Treetex operates a 24-hour emergency response service for storm-damaged trees, fallen trees blocking roads or access, and urgent hazards on public or private land. Rapid-response teams are equipped to deal with any situation safely and efficiently — day or night.
We work alongside local authorities, highways agencies, facilities managers, and private clients to clear hazards, make sites safe, and document works for insurance purposes. For genuine emergencies, call us directly on 01403 824972.
Treetex provides programmed highway tree inspection, maintenance, and emergency response services to local authorities and highways agencies. Operations are compliant with highway standards and delivered with Chapter 8 traffic management where required, by experienced teams familiar with working in live highway environments.
Services range from programmed crown maintenance and clearance pruning through to full tree removal and emergency storm response. We can take on managed service contracts or deliver individual call-off works to specification.
Straight answers for planning applicants, local authorities, and anyone dealing with a dangerous or storm-damaged tree.
BS 5837:2012 is the British Standard that governs tree surveys for planning applications in the UK — it covers how trees are assessed, categorised, and protected in relation to design and construction. Treetex's qualified consultants produce BS 5837 tree surveys and Arboricultural Impact Assessments to the standard local planning authorities expect.
Yes. All climbing arborists hold relevant NPTC/CS units, including CS30 (felling small trees), CS31 (aerial tree work), and CS38 (climbing and rescue), and ground-based chainsaw operatives hold the appropriate NPTC certificates for crosscutting, felling, and processing — Treetex does not permit chainsaw work on any contract without the relevant certification.
Yes, Treetex operates a 24-hour emergency response service for storm-damaged trees, fallen trees blocking roads or access, and urgent hazards on public or private land. For a genuine emergency, call 01403 824972 directly — the line is monitored around the clock.
Yes. Highway and roadside tree work requires Chapter 8 traffic management, and Treetex's supervisors hold the relevant LANTRA Award, enabling us to set up and manage appropriate signing and guarding for carriageway operations for local authorities and highways agencies.
A BS5837 survey is the formal report required to support a planning application, assessing every tree on site against the proposed development. A Visual Tree Assessment (VTA) is a ground-level risk inspection used for ongoing stock management — checking a tree's condition and structural safety without the planning-specific reporting a BS5837 survey requires. Treetex carries out both.
All crown work — crown reduction, crown lifting, crown thinning, and deadwood removal — is carried out to BS3998 standards by NPTC-qualified arborists, whether the aim is managing scale, improving clearance, or improving light and airflow.
For emergencies, call us now on 01403 824972. For planned works and quotes, send an enquiry and we will respond within one business day.
