Last week’s unexpected winds brought chaos throughout the Midlands, with all of our teams out responding to emergency call outs 🪾

Over in West Bridgford, Tullan and Liam tackled a monster of an Ivy-covered Poplar that was uprooted overnight and resting precariously in a neighbouring Oak tree ⚠️

Dismantling the stems section by section, the team worked tirelessly over two days to make the garden safe and secure. The tree was leaning across a brook and busy allotment site so an swift and skillful response was required 🦺

Exemplary work and attitudes shown by of teams in their resilience to responding to emergency call outs, a great display of abilities and skills from all 💪🏼

For all emergencies, urgent works and weather-related incidents give us a call and know you’re in safe hands:

So today is said to be ‘Blue Monday’, the most miserable day of the year, and although it’s pretty grey and wet in Derbyshire right now, coming into the office to an email like this has lifted even the gloomiest of spirits🌦️

These moments are reminders of why we do what we do, and how proud we are of the team and culture we’ve developed in the process 💪🏼

Warm wishes from the team at Tom Richards🎄

Remember to be sure to recycle or compost your real tree after the holidays to prevent it from releasing methane in a landfill - they can be composted or chipped to return nutrients to the soil 🌳

As we get ready to close our doors for Christmas at the end of another year, there's just time for a moment of reflection on 2025 . . .

Just like hundreds of other businesses in the industry have experienced, 2025's brought its fair share of challenges to the world of forestry and arboriculture🌲 As a team, a company and a sector, we've battled hurdles and setbacks - and that's just with the weather! ☔ Working outdoors in a particularly challenging and skilled industry comes hand-in-hand with ups and downs but, yet again, the team have excelled to do us so proud 😊

We've seen customers both new and old, travelled to fresh places and revisited those with years of memories and, once again, finished the year as a tight-knit team who genuinely enjoy the crazy life they call work 🌳

A huge thank you to our incredible customers - you keep our doors open and our lights on and we're so grateful. For a small business in a busy, busy industry, we're so excited for the new year and what it is going to bring and we can't wait to bring you along on the journey! 💚

The countdown has begun, cheers to 2025!

Huge congratulations are in order for our longest serving team member, Adam, who we're immensely proud to share has just passed his Professional Tree Inspectorate qualification🌳

The PTI is no small achievement, it is a widely recognise and highly renowned accolade that only the most experienced inspectors can undertake. As highly advanced course that will take Adam to the next level in his profession, the PTI is described as a: 📝

"well-respected, tough qualification that requires demonstration of an advanced level of knowledge and experience - all inspectors require an in-depth knowledge of plant and arboricultural science" 🌲

As Tom Richards Tree Services gains another tree inspector working to the pinnacle of industry standards we can't wait to see what the future might hold! Congratulations Adam, it's very well deserved 🌟

Nice to see the Merlo making light work of our recent job down in Mapperley today 🌲

These Poplar trees were being pollarded to keep them maintained and manageable as a boundary, a big job that the Grapple Saw made look more than easy! 💪🏼

The stems and brash were stacked throughout the day ready for the Whole Tree Chipper tomorrow. The chip will be transported over to the National Forest for biomass production 🔥

Always a pleasure to work alongside the team at Bowen Landscape Management and Milner Forestry - thanks for lending us a sizable helping hand! 🌳

Did you know that, alongside our work for domestical and residential customers, Tom Richards Tree Services also carry out larger scale projects for a variety of clients in the property sector? 🏞

Whether it be management and planning of land and rural areas, property development and expansion or estate maintenance and coordination, clients in these industries often require a level of arboricultural assistance🌲🌳

Last week we supported Fisher German with a number of trees showing signs of Ash Die Back on one of their sites in Stanley, Derbyshire. Some trees were already dead, some were hazardous and dangerous and others showed signs of advanced Die Back☢️

Due to the condition of the trees, the team used a MEWP to work from height safely, rather than climbing them. The team pruned back the trees to create a wider sightline over the bridge, working alongside Traffic Management to ensure the public and road users were kept safe at all times🚘

The wood chippings and timber from the works have been distributed throughout the adjacent woodland, providing benefit to nature and wildlife and ensuring 100% of the waste products produced from our works were completely recycled♻️
