What actually is a Tree Surgeon?
A tree surgeon is a professional in his own right. They are highly trained individuals and tree care specialists in the art of tree surgery. They complete all kinds of tasks on a daily basis including tree trimming, pruning and cutting away any large limbs, they also remove whole trees that can be in a residential customers way or to make way on land or forest for a commercial building project that needs to progress forward. Sometimes this can include stump removals by grinding down the stumps with a large machine purposely built for the job. These unwanted stumps can protrude from the ground and become diseased, hazardous and troublesome on a clients property and they would like them removed to claim back the land. Tree surgeons take care of a multitude of tasks throughout the four seasons, maintaining trees is a full time and never ending pursuit throughout the year, keeping unwanted growth and foliage down to acceptable levels on many different types of properties and land projects.
Other Tree Surgeon abilities are to plant and regenerate new trees and advise customers of the correct trees to plant in their particular area or climate. Tree conservation is always important to any tree surgeon or arborist, they would rather save and preserve an existing tree than remove it altogether. But unfortunately and sadly some trees cannot be saved due to disease or damage and need to be removed before becoming too dangerous and hazardous to buildings or indeed human life.
What is an Arborist?
An Arborist tree specialist can be highly regarded as a Doctor of trees. Rather like a tree surgeon can be classed like a surgeon in the medical world. Arborists go through rigorous academic and practical training at different levels ranging from City and Guilds to Master’s degrees in Forestry and Arboriculture. Arborists usually choose a specialised area to hone their skills and this could be anything like diagnosis and treatments of tree diseases, climbing and pruning, lightning protection cabling and bracing. Sometimes when an Arborist struggles to climb trees through advancing age or injury, they might move into another field of expertise like tree reports, surveying and consultancy work which is less demanding on the body.
The main difference I would say between an Arborist and a regular tree surgeon is education. Certified Arborists hold the correct certification handed out by the “International Society of Arboriculture” Even here there are different levels and skills from a climber specialist, right up to a ISA Board certified master Arborist.
