Case Study: Keeping Our Streets Green - Ealing

Ealing Council prides itself on being one of the greenest boroughs in London thanks to its tree-lined streets and parks, offering many benefits to its residents.

The well-being enhancing trees and green spaces require a lot of maintenance and need to be closely managed to keep them in good condition and prevent damage to roads and pavements.

Each year the Council carries out routine maintenance and planting of huge numbers of trees. The Borough has some 26,000 highway trees and around 1% of these fail each year. The Council make sure that at least one tree is planted for every tree that has to be removed. In addition there are some 20,000 park & cemetery trees plus yet more trees on housing land that need looking after.

The Council has to carry our regular ad hoc inspections to keep the trees in good condition and occasionally find trees that needs emergency remedial work done, especially after extreme weather.

Artemis was delighted to win a contract with Ealing Borough Council and be involved in its pruning programme across the borough, helping to manage trees in compliance with the London Tree Officers Association Risk Limitation Strategy.

Meeting a timetable set by the Council, sticking to completion dates, using appropriate levels of staff & equipment on-site, Artemis were kept busy for several months working on the trees.

Working in all weather conditions, carrying out procedures such as crown reductions & targeted removal, our teams were working in largely built-up areas. The teams had to consider urban services including electricity & telephone cables, water, sewage & gas pipes whilst causing minimum disruptions to traffic and pedestrians and ensuring access for the disabled, buggies and the elderly.

Artemis Tree Services is proud to be involved in keeping London’s streets green and healthy for everyone to enjoy. From a single small fruit tree in your own garden to hundreds of large-scale street trees, Artemis has the experience and expertise to help.

The level of service is second to none. The survey outlined what would be required, advised on any contact for consent from neighbours if required and what the short and long term expectations would be. The team that undertook the extreme pruning of fir trees on the boundary of my property were polite, engaging, professional and made sure I was happy with the end result. Never having had to engage a tree services before I had no idea of pricing and was more than surprised at the value for money. Meticulously clearing up afterwards and removing all debris the same day. Plus points, everything, negative points, none. I would most highly recommend.

Set up was thorough as we needed to get permits, keys for a shared gate and the ok from neighbours. Two guys that did the work were friendly, organised and probably left the garden looking tidier than when they started. Thoroughly recommended.

Artemis took down two lime trees who's roots had damaged the garage floor and were an inch away from the foundations of the house . The trees were in a very awkward place to get to but this didn't seem to trouble this highly competent team. The team were extremely well equipped , and they worked together like a well oiled machine. We were delighted with their work, tidiness and very pleasant manner. And it was at a fair price.
