Why Choose Red Fox Tree Care?
Choosing a tree surgeon isn't simply about finding someone who can cut a tree. Good arboricultural work should consider the tree, the property and what you're trying to achieve.
1
Honest Advice
Removing a tree isn't always the answer. Where a tree can safely and reasonably be retained, we'll explain the options available rather than recommending unnecessary work.
2
Professional Tree Care
We use appropriate arboricultural techniques, specialist equipment and careful planning to complete work safely and to a high standard.
3
Respect for Your Property
Tree work can be messy. We take care around gardens, neighbouring properties and surrounding structures and leave the working area tidy once the job is complete.
4
Local & Independent
Red Fox Tree Care is an independent North Tyneside business. When you contact us, you're dealing directly with the team responsible for assessing and completing your work.
5
Responsible With Green Waste
Branches, timber and woodchip generated through our work are reused or recycled wherever practical, helping us reduce the amount of useful material sent to waste.
Do You Need Permission for Tree Work in Durham?
Some trees in Durham are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO), while additional restrictions can apply to trees within Conservation Areas. This does not necessarily mean that work cannot be carried out, but the appropriate permission or notification may be required before work begins.
If your tree is protected, Red Fox Tree Care can prepare and submit the required TPO application on your behalf, including the proposed arboricultural works, so you do not have to navigate the application process yourself.
If you are unsure whether your tree is protected, we can check this as part of planning your tree work and advise you on the next steps.
