MJC Tree Surgeons Ltd News

MJC Staff have now undertaken MEWP (Mobile Elevated Work Platform) Training in order to improve the service that they provide for their customers. For our client in the pictures below it was important and effective to provide a safe platform to reduce the beech tree limbs overhanging an oak framed barn.

MJC Tree Surgeons Ltd have also recently been assisting in the site preparation for the new IKEA store in Southampton city centre. The site required large fells and stump grinding of 5 lombardi poplar trees as well as some crown lifting along the roadside leading up to the new entrance on the West Quay Road.

MJC Tree Surgeons Limited have been involved in some much needed maintenance work on a very historical tree at one of hampshires largest schools. The large twin stemmed cedar is supposedly the place where Florence Nightingale recieved her calling from god to do his work. Below are a sample of images from the grounds of Embley School.

As a result of the work that we carry out, MJC Tree Surgeons produce a variety of recycled products. Approximately 97% of our waste is recycled and we are keen to keep that figure as high as possible. We have a constant supply of seasoned woodchip mulch, which is ideal for preventing weeds and adding richness to your garden beds. Seasoned logs split and ready to burn during the winter cold or summer evenings. In addition to this we have a growing supply of planked wood from varying species of tree aswell as raw wood for wood turners.

All our recycled products are available for purchase. In order to view or buy any of our products please visit our For Sale page or contact us using the details at the foot of each page of our website.
