Tree Relocations
Tree relocations involve the safe and strategic movement of trees from one location to another, with the primary goal of minimizing stress and maintaining the trees' overall health during the process.
Experts thoroughly evaluate the tree’s size, age, species, and current growing conditions to determine the feasibility and best approach for relocation.
Arborists carefully prune the tree’s roots and canopy to create a balanced root-to-shoot ratio, ensuring the tree can establish itself in the new location. The entire root ball is carefully extracted while preserving as much of the root system as possible.
The tree is transported to the new site using specialized equipment, such as tree spades or cranes, to prevent damage. The tree is then replanted in a pre-prepared hole, with great care taken to ensure the proper depth, orientation, and soil compaction.
Comprehensive aftercare measures are implemented, including irrigation, mulching, and monitoring, to support the tree’s acclimatisation and recovery in the new environment. Regular pruning and maintenance may also be required to help the tree regain its vigor.
Arborists at Horticare closely monitor the relocated tree’s progress, making adjustments as needed, to ensure its long-term survival and successful establishment in the new location.
