 – MG Tree Services – 

Hello from the team at MG Tree Surgery! As we settle into April here in Cambridge, the air is finally warming up, and our trees are waking up. But for business owners and facility managers across Cambridgeshire, this month isn’t just about enjoying the sunshine—it’s about getting ahead of the seasonal challenges before they become expensive headaches.

 

Here’s what your commercial site likely needs right now:

Clearing Up Winter’s Mess 

Let’s be honest, British winters can be brutal. By April, the full extent of storm damage usually shows up. Broken branches hanging over car parks or leaning trunks near your office aren’t just unsightly; they’re safety hazards. We recommend a thorough safety sweep now. It’s much better to clear debris and remove unstable limbs today than to deal with an emergency call-out (and potential liability issues) when the summer arrives.

Pruning While You Can Still See the Structure 

April is a sweet spot for crown reduction and pruning. The leaves haven’t fully burst out yet, so we can clearly see the tree’s structure. This makes it easier to shape trees properly, reduce wind resistance for the coming summer storms, and ensure your solar panels or ground-floor windows aren’t getting shaded out too early.

Hedge Trimming for a Sharp Look 

Nothing says “professional” like crisp, tidy hedges. With nesting season in full swing soon, April is the perfect window for that initial trim. We can get your boundaries looking sharp for the warmer months while staying fully compliant with wildlife regulations.

Planting and Health Checks 

It’s still a great time to plant new trees or replace those lost over winter. Plus, our team can spot early signs of pests or diseases like ash dieback before they spread. Catching issues early saves money and keeps your site healthy.
