Wolf Pine

Tree surgeon in St Ives

Wolf Pine is a tree surgeon covering St Ives, five miles from Hayle. Most work here is climbing and sectional dismantling, because a large share of the town cannot be reached by machine.

Tree work in St Ives

St Ives is the access town. The older parts of it are a network of steep, narrow lanes between granite terraces, with courtyard gardens reached through the house or down a passage barely wide enough for a wheelbarrow. There is frequently nowhere to put a chipper, no route for a platform, and nowhere legal to leave a vehicle while the work happens. That is not an inconvenience to be worked around — it decides the whole method. A tree that would be felled whole in an afternoon somewhere flatter has to be climbed and taken down piece by piece, with every section lowered on a rope, because there is no ground for it to fall onto.

The other thing that shapes work here is that much of the town sits within a conservation area, and a great many properties are holiday lets whose owners live somewhere else entirely. Conservation area status means the council has to be given six weeks notice before most tree work, which catches people out when they have a tenant arriving and a branch over the parking space. If you are managing the property from up-country, I am happy to deal with the whole thing by phone and photographs and send you the quote — the on-site visit still happens, I just do not need you standing in the garden for it.
