What to know

Tree surgeons vs gardeners

Tree surgery is not hedge trimming with a bigger ladder. Around Cardiff, check insurance, waste removal, and whether a tree is protected.

Gardeners and landscaping

Lawn care and landscaping sit here too — confirm scope (mow only vs design) and how arisings are disposed of.

Protected trees

Tree Preservation Orders and conservation areas need council permission before major work — check first, not after the saw is out.
