Last week, our team at J.H.E Tree Services was called out to a local primary school in Garstang to safely dismantle a dead Alder tree that had become a concern for staff and parents. The tree was heavily decayed and overhanging the road where parents park to collect their children — making it a significant safety hazard. Our qualified arborists followed strict safety protocols to dismantle the tree section by section, preventing any damage to the surrounding area. If you need similar work at a school, business premises, or residential property, we offer expert tree removal services across Preston and the wider Lancashire area.  The Removal ProcessThe Alder tree showed advanced signs of decay, including visible fungus growing along the trunk. After a safety inspection, our NPTC-certified arborists carefully rigged and dismantled the tree section by section. To ensure the safety of nearby vehicles and pedestrians, the road was coned off and all safety measures followed strictly.
Stump Cut and Clean-UpOnce dismantled, we made a final cut just above hedge height, leaving it as a monolith. All debris and branches were removed from the site, leaving the school grounds safe and tidy.
⭐ Customer SatisfactionThe school was thrilled with the swift and tidy completion of the job. Need a Dangerous Tree Removed?At J.H.E Tree Services, we specialise in safe, efficient tree removals for schools, homes, and businesses across Garstang and Preston. We’re:

At J.H.E Tree Services, we were recently contacted by a homeowner in Chorley who was dealing with a large horse chestnut tree overhanging their garden. The tree was growing from a neighbouring property that had been vacant for over 10 years, and had become completely overgrown. The ChallengeWith no contact details for the absent owner, the customer approached the local council. They were informed they could have the tree trimmed back to their boundary line, provided it was carried out by a professional and fully insured tree surgeon. Our SolutionWe conducted a safe and controlled crown reduction, cutting back all branches that extended beyond the fence line. Our team used ropes and rigging to protect the surrounding area during the reduction. As always, safety was our top priority. The Results

Transforming a School Garden: Tree Pruning, Willow Dome Care & Raised Bed RepairsAt J.H.E Tree Services, we recently completed a rewarding project at a local primary school, where we helped revitalise their outdoor learning and garden area. This project is a great example of how expert tree care and grounds maintenance can transform a school garden into a safe, engaging space for children to learn and explore. Improving Light for Raised Beds and Garden GrowthOne of the main goals of this project was to increase sunlight exposure to the school’s raised beds for planting. We carried out tree reduction work, carefully cutting back overhanging branches to allow more natural light to reach the planting area. This is a crucial step in supporting healthy plant growth and creating an inviting environment for outdoor education.
Willow Dome Pruning and Hedge TrimmingThe garden featured a large willow dome, which had become very overgrown. Our team conducted a careful willow dome pruning, shaping and managing the structure to keep it safe, tidy, and accessible for the children to use. We also completed hedge trimming throughout the area to improve visibility, access, and overall appearance.  
Raised Bed Repairs with New SleepersSafety and sustainability are at the heart of everything we do. During our assessment, we discovered two rotten sleepers in one of the raised garden beds. These were replaced with new timber sleepers to ensure the structure remained stable and secure for students to plant and interact with.   Fresh Woodchip for Paths and Play AreasTo finish the job, we applied fresh woodchip mulch to the garden paths, borders, and underneath the willow dome. Not only does this improve the look of the space, but it also helps with weed suppression, improves drainage, and provides a safer, softer surface for children to walk and play on.
