Services
Tree felling
We safely remove hazardous or unwanted trees using controlled dismantling techniques. Our certified team handles emergency storm damage and planned removals near buildings or power lines. All waste is recycled responsibly, ensuring minimal environmental impact.
Crown reduction
This service reduces tree size while maintaining structural integrity. We improve light access and prevent branch failure through selective cutting, following British Standard BS3998 guidelines for long-term tree health.
Stump grinding
Our low-mess stump grinding process removes trip hazards and prepares sites for replanting. Using specialist machinery, we clear stumps completely, leaving the ground ready for landscaping or construction projects.
Storm damage clearance
We offer rapid response for fallen trees or storm-damaged branches. Our team prioritises safety, using risk assessments and equipment to clear debris and secure properties with minimal disruption to clients.
Site clearance
We provide complete vegetation removal for development projects, including tree felling, shrub clearance, and invasive species management. Our services prepare sites for construction while ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and recycling protocols.
Questions
What does a tree surgeon do?
Tree surgeons maintain and remove trees through pruning, felling, and emergency work. At Casey Tree Care, we use climbing gear and MEWPs to ensure safety and precision in urban and rural settings.
Why hire a certified tree surgeon in Scotland?
Certified arborists ensure legal compliance and safety. Our NPTC qualifications guarantee expertise in chainsaw use, rigging, and tree biology, preventing damage and fines from unauthorised work.
Do I need permission to cut down a tree in Scotland?
Yes, if the tree has a Tree Preservation Order or is in a conservation area. We assist with council applications to ensure compliance with Glasgow City Council regulations.
What is a Tree Preservation Order (TPO)?
A TPO legally protects trees from unauthorised work. Our team identifies TPOs using council systems and submits applications for necessary pruning or removal.
How much does a tree surgeon in Glasgow cost?
Tree pruning starts at £120, removal from £250, and stump grinding from £60. Prices include debris clearance and recycling, with no hidden fees.
What qualifications should a tree surgeon have?
Professionals should hold NPTC certifications for chainsaw use, climbing, and aerial rescue. Our team maintains up-to-date qualifications and industry standards.
