Not all hope is lost, but in the UK, the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 makes it illegal to damage or destroy active nests. Birds typically nest between March and August, so it adds an extra layer of complication that isn't there outside of this timeframe.

Also, depending on the type of tree you want pruned, active growth periods are best avoided to prevent damage.

It all sounds complicated and annoying to plan around, but that's what we are here to do for you. We know the regulations, laws and information to avoid any issues, and we can guide you on the best actions to take. Just get in contact with any questions; we are always happy to help!

Congratulations, you've found one.

But in general, if you want to make sure you've found the right team for the job, there are a few checks you can make.

First off, reviews! Customers are going to be a lot more honest about the quality of an arborist's work than the actual arborist. We obviously think we're pretty great, but our customers do too, so it's fine.

Google reviews are a great way to check, just make sure to read the written reviews instead of just looking at a star rating. Then you can be sure you know what type of service to expect.

You can also ask to see their public liability insurance. Not having any form of insurance is a big red flag. While your pal may say they know a guy, that guy might just have a saw and a dream. Make sure they're insured and qualified.

Get some quotes! We're always happy to come out and have a chat before you commit to the work. If an arborist isn't happy to do that, there you go, another red flag!

If you're in need of high-quality tree services, feel free to send us a message and we'll get back ASAP.

We've all seen those trees that look like they're a light breeze away from toppling over, but is that fall inevitable?

Not necessarily.

If a tree has grown with a natural lean, then it isn't a problem. The tree will have grown roots to stabilise itself. Yes, it looks a little dramatic, but it won't cause any drama. It's just a bit of character.

However, if a tree grows straight and then develops a lean, there is the potential for problems, and you should consider calling us to have a look!

So, is a leaning tree dangerous? Mibbes aye, mibbes naw.

We're back to answer some frequently asked questions! To kick off, here's one we get a lot. So, do you need council permission to have tree work done?

It depends.

Generally speaking, in Glasgow you do not have to get council permission to prune or remove a tree, UNLESS it is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or is in a Conservation Area.

How do you know if your tree is protected or in a Conservation Area?

The Glasgow city council website does have online Interactive Mapping applications that can help, and some documents, but borderline cases can be hard to determine. That's something that we would be able to advise you on.

Don't worry, we won't lead you wrong. If you have any questions, please get in contact!

It's getting cold out there! Luckily, the team at Green Touch Services have big coats and are fuelled by cups of tea 😌

So if you're looking to get your green spaces ready for Spring (we promise it'll come one day), then we can help!

You know you're getting the best when you get in touch with Green Touch Services, because the man in charge is your first point of contact! That's one of the benefits of working with a local arborist company over a huge organisation that's based down South 😌

You've all lucked out because not only does Tam have a super good work ethic, but he's also very kind! Seriously, he rescued a cat from a tree a few weeks ago and didn't tell his social team about it.

(Sorry Tam, but you deserve your kudos).

If you want Tam and the team to work their magic on your trees or hedges, give him a message on WhatsApp or email us at [email protected]

One of the big gripes when it comes to getting any kind of ground maintenance or tree surgery done is the mess left behind. If you walk through any local park right now, you'll know exactly what we're talking about.

That's what makes Green Touch Services different.

We don't leave you with a pile of branches to deal with. We leave our clients with a green space that is perfectly clear; the only evidence of work done is safer, healthier trees😁
