Making and installing props to support veteran oak trees:
Today we have been installing props under veteran oaks to support over extended limbs. We made the props in-house along with all metal feet and supports, installed by Steve and Dan.

For examples of the more ‘random’ work we undertake please see our web page here
Here we are using our versatile Protech Evo 2 self-propelled post driver to create 10″ holes x 1 meter deep in solid chalk for steel gate posts.
Our task was to create one meter deep holes for metal gate posts for Wessex Water in Durrington, just north of Amesbury. With this piece of kit, we punch a hole in the ground, put in the post and add the concrete – “Simples” (and no digging, and no soil to take away !)
This is one for the everything else page on the website
We were asked to remove grass and replace with an artificial grass surface for a healthcare client in Poole.

Vegetation Management comes in many forms. Here we’re clearing a bank at Chitterne for Wylye Valley Farm Shoot. It’s steeper than it looks.
And then Rich Trevor Geoff and Lawrence have found a barn whilst working at Valley Farm.
Refresher training for the tree department last week with a few practice aerial rescues along with new felling cuts for leaning trees.
This is part of our ongoing training for our teams in line with our accreditations and their requirements. See full details here.
Something a little different
We erected a 2.4 m high “358 prison steel” mesh security fencing with two access gates for Wessex Water in Blandford Forum Dorset. This was ‘green blend’ in colour so as to blend in with the landscape. The fencing was to provide safe storage of their water purification equipment.

Cirencester Opportunity Group
Cirencester Opportunity Group is an independent charity providing integrated education for preschool children and support for their families.
M&S supply various foods and undertook to recreate a forest school where the children can learn in the great outdoors. We were delighted to be able to support by creating a hedgehog habitat as it seems there are resident hedgehogs!
For further information about our ‘different’ activities, please see our web page here.
We erected a security fence and gates to form a new entrance for Witheys Welding in Westbury.
It was 2.4m high palisade fencing.
A few pictures of a large dismantle project started last week for Hill Construction at Tidworth. We’re removing the overhanging trees on a new housing project for Ministry of Defence to house soldiers returning to Wiltshire. The trees were a large beech, ash and sycamore.
