We Care About Trees...
2002 to 2012 - 10 Years of Trees!
It is now 10 years since Monmouth Tree
Services was formed with the aim of providing quality tree services
in Monmouthshire and in that time we have gained experience of all
aspects of arboriculture & woodland management from sensitive
pruning of 800 year old Oaks to felling 120ft pine trees. From
the very beginning our work was carried out with nature in mind and
we were keen to keep ecological disruption to a minimum whilst
carrying out our work. This was noted by our local authority
countryside service who in 2004 endorsed our practice of leaving
dead wood within tree canopies for invertebrate habitats and feeding
areas which in turn promoted bat and bird conservation.
Building on this ecological ethos, we are now actively involved with
projects in sites of special scientific interest and special areas
of conservation. Monmouthshire has many ancient wooded areas which
have some of the best biodiversity in the country. It is also one of
the most important areas for veteran trees of many differing species
from small leafed Lime to Yew and Oaks.
These trees are a haven for wildlife providing food and
habitats for many different species including Protected Dormice,
Bats and Owls. Bats especially use trees for foraging, breeding,
hibernation and even navigation therefore we have to be very careful
when pruning or felling trees especially old hollow trees. A bat
surveying course provided by the Bat Conservation Trust along with
working and training with Monmouthshire bat group has been a real
help and has enabled us to give our customers the right advice
concerning bats in trees. We now
routinely carry out a
bat
habitat survey if we have any reason to suspect it is being used
as a roost or is a potential
roost. There is sometimes a clash of interests due to old hollow
trees (used by bats & owls) becoming dangerous when near to roads or
buildings. Working together with the bat group, the Countryside
Council for Wales, Natural England and our local county tree
officers & ecologist
we are able to ensure we
take the right approach and actions when we work on these types of
trees, many of which do
not need to be felled completely therefore saving valuable wildlife
habitats. We are
looking forward to another 10 years of tree work & conservation and
would like to say a big thank you to all our customers for making it
possible. Steve

Monmouth Tree Services provide a very competitive high quality arboriculture service to private and commercial customers.
The quality of our arboriculture work is second to none, and we are able to carry out all aspects of arboriculture from planting the smallest tree to felling the largest most dangerous of trees.
We provide FREE ESTIMATES for all our work and always leave the work area clean and tidy on completion of operation. No job is too big or too small.
Established in 1999 we pride ourselves on the quality of our work and customer care. We go to great effort to ensure our customers are happy with our work and punctuality and as a result we are able to offer excellent references from our existing customers. Arboriculture is about caring for trees and learning about tree systems, not just cutting them down without regard for the environment. We work closely with local authority and environmental / animal welfare groups to ensure there is no effect to the environment or wild life when we carry out our operations.
With ecology in mind we use biodegradable oil for our chainsaws and offer to plant new trees when we are unable to save the existing tree. We also recycle all our cuttings to create wood mulch and use the larger wood for furniture and wood fuel.
When we carry out operations we use only the best equipment and are
up to date with the latest technology. We operate to Briti
