Simpson Arboriculture are a trusted and well-established tree surgery company based in Ancaster, Lincolnshire. Trees are not just beautiful additions to our landscapes; they are essential for a healthy environment. However, as majestic as they are, trees can pose potential risks if not properly maintained. In this blog, we’ll explore the crucial role of tree surgery in ensuring the safety of your property and more importantly, your loved ones.

The importance of tree safety

When left unchecked, trees can develop structural issues, diseases and hazardous limbs that may compromise their stability. These issues pose a threat to your property and the people around. Tree safety is not just about preventing damage to structures, it is also about protecting the well-being of those who inhabit the area.

The role of tree surgery

Tree surgery, or arboriculture, involves a range of practices aimed at promoting tree health, maintaining structural integrity and mitigating potential risks. Here’s how tree surgery can contribute to overall tree safety:

1. Regular inspection: Professional arborists can identify signs of disease, decay or structural weaknesses. Early detection allows for timely intervention, preventing potential hazards.
2. Pruning for safety: Tree surgery includes strategic pruning to remove dead, damaged or weak branches. This not only enhances the tree’s aesthetics but also reduced the risk of falling limbs during storms or adverse weather conditions.  
3. Structural support: In cases where a tree has structural issues or is at risk of failure, arborists such as our experienced team at Simpson Arboriculture, can provide support systems such as cabling and bracing. This helps stabilise the tree, reducing the likelihood of branches or the entire tree falling.
4. Emergency response: Simpson Arboriculture are equipped to handle emergency situations, such as storm damage or fallen trees. Our quick response and expertise ensure a safe and efficient resolution to protect your property and loved ones.

Our experienced team have ample experience in dealing with fallen limbs, deadwood and trees blocking roads. They have attended emergency callouts on many occasions where trees have failed during storms and high winds and have had the power to destroy walls, fences, garden structures and even roofs.
