We had the absolute pleasure of working in the beautiful Cambo in Northumberland earlier this month. Our client – Cambo Community Orchard – required the tree removal of two Lawson Cypress (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana) trees which had outgrown their space in the graveyard, and the crown lift of two large Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) overshadowing the newly planted orchard. #arborist #cambo #crownlift #northumberland #treepruning #treeremoval
20 mature beech reductions in a day has to be our record! π₯π₯π₯
Conservation area work in Fawdon, Newcastle. Using a MEWP and the new truck we nailed in in 8 hours.
Epic work by the team.
Really pleased with the sign-writing! Thanks @hoopersigns πππ»β€οΈ
Spotted us out and about yet?
We dismantled this large sycamore using a Mobile Elevated Working Platform (MEWP).
A large wound had resulted in major decay leaving the tree vulnerable to failure.
A few weeks ago we took most of the weight out of the crown and we popped back today finish off while traffic management was in place.
This jobs bloody great! Careful removal of two Lawson Cyprus at a grave yard in Cambo. Lush day βοΈβοΈβοΈ P.s. ain't that hawthorn lush πΊ
A delightful morning thinning these two big lads and reducing the height of a third (just to the right). π²π²ππ
Things are getting serious. The Tree Fella Bonsai Competition has stated. We will post updates as things progress.
Each of the team has five specimen plants to grow from seed. Larch, Sweet Gum, Pine, Redbud and Juniper.
The kits are made by @prontoseed and available online. Let us know if you're joining in ππ»

Big day today with the team tackling a dangerous tree removal, and two big overhanging poplars. π³π³
Timing the work with the road closure on Moore Lane meant less inconvenience for drivers too. ππ»
Making the most of these two conifers to get some rigging practice in for Dylan. Balancing quality slow-paced learning time with costs and productivity is Simon's biggest scheduling challenge to date.
Following a thorough check for nesting birds, π£π€ we removed this hedge for a customer in Boldon safely. π²β
Over the last two rainy days, we've completed a crown reduction on this mature beech and reduced a large willow tree. Wet and cold for the crew. Tops off a fantastic year for @thetreefellane.

Hello my little feathered friend π¦. See you in a month or two ππ»
Nesting season might be "over", but it's always important to carry out a nesting bird check before π³ work starts!
Carefully does it! Rigged removal of a storm damaged limb from a Poplar in Cleadon today.
Following a 5-day notice to South Tyneside Council and planning we've removed a large hazardous Ash tree removed in Monkton, Jarrow. π³
Sad to see it go, but you just can't take the risk in such a built up area and so close to a road. π’
Crown redcution carried out on a silver birch in Shiney Row. Reducing the size whilst keeping a natural shape.
Rigging allows for safe removal of sections of a tree without damaging objects in the immediate vicinity.
Canny view today as we pruned three large beech tree in South Shields. Thanks to TOTAL for providing the traffic management ππͺπΌπ€πΌ

Frequently Asked Questions about Tree Surgery
There are a lot of tree surgeons to choose from. Here’s some information to help you make an informed decision.
What’s the difference between a Tree Surgeon and an Arborist?
In some ways the terms are interchangeable. Tree Surgeon is a commonly used & less formal term referring to an Arborist.
In practice, however, an Arborist should be a professional in the field of arboriculture, which is the cultivation, management, and study of individual trees & shrubs, etc., and should hold professional qualifications. In the UK these terms are widely used and confused.
As a company, we much prefer the terms used by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) who differentiate between Tree Workers and Arborists.
Here at The Tree Fella NE Ltd, we are proud Tree Workers able to carry out tree pruning and tree removal work expertly. When expert scientific knowledge is required, we’d always refer our customers to an Arborist qualified to Level 4 or Level 5 for a professional survey back up by Professional Indemnity Insurance. Once the study has been carried out, and the doctor has prescribed the solution – we’ll carry out the work.
Why do I need a tree surgeon?
Tree work requires technical competence supported by a high level of training and lots of experience. For these reasons, tree work should only be undertaken by a qualified tree worker or arborist, with expertise in the area of work to be conducted.
If not carried out by a professional, tree work can lead to injuries to people, damage to property or severe harm to your trees.
No matter how small the job – it’s worth consulting a tree surgeon. Here at The Tree Fella NE Ltd, we’re not afraid to suggest if something can be done yourself to keep costs down – but equally, we’ll always be honest and inform you if it’s a task where you should seek professional advice.
