Rivers, clay and new homes
Gillingham has grown fast, with new estates alongside an old market town and its rivers.
On the clay, oaks grow large, and near houses with shallow foundations they can contribute to subsidence when the ground shrinks in dry summers. A tree assessment looks at the risk.
Along the Stour, Lodden and Shreen Water, willows and alders grow fast and suit regular reduction or pollarding.
On the newer estates, trees and hedges planted with the houses are now big enough to need crown work and hedge trimming, and some are covered by planning conditions, which we check first.
