Tree Surgeon Consett

Tree services in Consett

Consett sits high on the edge of the Derwent Valley, west of Durham, one of the highest towns in England. The former steel town has steep streets and exposed gardens that take the brunt of weather coming off the Pennines.

Exposed sites around Consett mean trees take storm damage first. We deal with split limbs, leaning trees and removals where wind has made a tree unsafe, plus the usual reductions and crown work.

All work includes a free inspection and fixed written quote, with timber, branches and green waste taken away when the job is done.

Local knowledge: working in Consett

Access on site: Streets around Consett are steep and many gardens back onto embankments. The high position means strong wind on site, which we factor into how we rig and dismantle.

Trees you are most likely to have: Sycamore and ash are widespread, with birch and rowan on the higher, exposed sites. Leylandii and other conifers are common shelter screens.

Wind and storm risk: The altitude and open position make Consett one of the most wind-exposed towns in County Durham. Storm damage and wind-shaped trees are the norm here.

Permissions and Conservation Areas: There are several Conservation Areas close to Consett, including Blackhill, Iveston, Low Westwood and Shotley Bridge, and parts of the town centre are covered by TPOs.
