We provide professional, high quality tree care and vegetation management services across all industry sectors (Utility, Commercial and Domestic) to customers across the Midlands, surrounding regions and Nationwide. We regularly invest in our fleet, plant and equipment to provide our staff with the very best and most effective tools for their work and to provide our customers with a ‘one stop shop’ for all of their requirements. We operate management systems that satisfy the requirements of ISO 9001: 2015, ISO 14001: 2015 and ISO 45001: 2018. We are accredited by the Arboricultural Association as Approved Contractors for both amenity and utility arboriculture. We are also RISQS audited for Sentinel and IMR, Achilles UDVB Registered and SafeContractor accredited.

While one of our Contracts Managers was surveying ash dieback works, he identified a mature ash tree with a severe split running down the main stem.

The tree was situated beside a 50 mph dual carriageway on a blind bend, presenting a significant risk to road users. It was immediately reported to the client, who quickly arranged an emergency road closure for the following evening.

Our team safely dismantled the tree using a 20-metre track-mounted MEWP, a whole-tree Bandit tracked chipper and a 3-tonne Bobcat to feed the chipper.

A great example of proactive site awareness, effective communication and everyone working together to protect the public and resolve a potentially dangerous situation before it became an incident.

The management of risk from trees breaking or uprooting is a balance between the safety of people and property and the retention of the many environmental and societal benefits that trees confer. If there is no target for the tree to fail on, then there is no risk. Conversely, a tree in a highly occupied area may present elevated levels of risk depending on the presence of defects and how the tree responds to those defects as it grows. In some cases, measures may be required to reduce the associated risk level.

We use Quantified Tree Risk Assessment (QTRA) to facilitate a reasonable, risk-based approach to our surveys, helping tree owners and managers maintain the many benefits that trees bring while keeping the risk from tree failure as low as reasonably practicable.

If you are a tree owner or manager with concerns about tree risk, contact the Thompson Consultancy team for a risk-based assessment.

Always great to work alongside good companies like Tindle Tree Care Ltd !

A few nice shots of our team out with the Jekko 545 V-Max, assisting with tree removals in some tricky positions. This is exactly the sort of job this machine is made for, and it’s great to see it making a difference on site!

Thanks to the team at Tindle Tree Care for getting us involved in one of their recent projects. It’s always good to work together and help get the job done.

If you’ve got a project coming up where you think we could help, we’re always happy to have a chat and see what we can do!

Tree and biodiversity considerations are a statutory part of the UK planning process. Local authorities have a duty to consider the protection and planting of trees when determining a planning application, as well as the conservation, protection and enhancement of biodiversity.

Thompson Consultancy provides tree and ecology consultancy services across all stages of the planning process. The graphic outlines what that typically looks like, from initial feasibility through to on-site supervision and ecological impact assessment.

Early input is essential. Tree and ecology constraints identified at the start of a project shape the design, protect valuable trees and habitats, avoid surveys booked at the wrong time of year and prevent costly redesigns, increasing the chance of a successful outcome for the scheme.

If you have a project and need tree or ecology consultancy support, contact the Thompson Consultancy team:
