Lightning Damaged Tree Removal - June 2019

Artemis Tree Services Ltd were instructed by the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead council to remove a 25m tall pine tree that had been struck by lightning some time ago!

This was made particularly difficult as the tree had 4 bee’s nests nestled between the cracks of the lightning strike! As we know bees are endangered so these had to be removed carefully by our team at midnight on the night prior to the trees removal, whilst accompanied by a bee specialist.

Once the nests were safely removed we could remove the dangerous tree. This involved a full road closure to enable access for the 35 tonne crane! Once the road was closed we were able to remove the tree in 5m sections with all the large branches going into our 12 inch wood chipper and all the large cordwood getting loaded directly onto our 18 tonne Hiab truck.

After only 4 hours we were able to re-open the road! Leaving it clean and safe! Residents on site praised the team for the clean tidy up and the minimal disruption caused! All the resulting debris was taken back to our HQ were 100% of it will be recycled and turned into biomass energy.

This time it was to fell and remove a mature sycamore. The team were excellent throughout - from initial enquiries, advice with what was suitable, scheduling of the work, the tree work itself, the disposal of the felled tree and invoicing. Very pleasant, smart, tidy and courteous.

The estimator Billy was great to deal with professional and gave great advice. We required a Laurel and Holly tree to be reduced in height and shaped and several leylandia trees at the back of the garden to be reduced in height and tidied up.A detailed quote was provided within 24 hours. On the day of the scheduled work the crew arrived on time and Tom and Charlie did a fantastic job very courteous and making sure everything was left nice and tidy. I would have no hesitation in contacting them for any future work required this is an extremely well run business.

Not a leaf was left for me to tidy up. Kirstie Harvey in the office is a legend! Cannot recommend this company highly enough.

The estimator came when he said he would, gave us meaningful and thoughtful suggestions. His detailed estimate was produced within hours of his visit. Once we had accepted the estimate we received planned date for the work. On the day the workmen arrived when we were told they would. They were extremely co-operative, helpful and informative. The work procedure without a hitch with everything being competed to a high standard, and all the refuse removed, leaving the garden neat and tidy. We will have Artemis back later in the year to prune the fruit trees.
