tree Surgery

Skywalkers! and that’s exactly what Landmarc did, when they needed assistance with some technical tree works.

#landmarc

Landmarc are a prestigious environmental engineering company based near Totnes, who provide water and landscape solutions for clients nationwide. Skywalkers DTS were honoured to be asked to provide assistance on several local projects recently. There’s isn’t a lot they can’t deal with, using their vast array of machinery and highly skilled operators, but sometimes, a chainsaw in an experienced pair of hands is called for.

Carefully dismantling a large Sycamore that had outgrown it’s surroundings, and was overshadowing an Oak that really needed some extra space and light.
There’s usually several ways to ‘skin a cat’, and Marcus introduced us to a whole new way of shifting brash, when a tired old Leyland Cypress hedge had to be removed.

At Skywalkers we always treat tree removal as an absolute last resort. Everything we removed for Landmarc on these projects was for very good reason. Removing non-native species in favour of replanting natively, or Ash trees that were becoming dangerous due to Dieback infection and their location. Throughout the projects, far more is being replanted than we removed.

Removals, pruning, hedge reshaping, you name it, we did it.
It’s all in the preparation. It was truly fascinating to watch a filthy bog get transformed into an enormous lake.
There’s pond liner, and then there’s lake liner – 1.2t per roll.
