Tree Care Tips

Time flies and every year seems to go by faster. Perhaps you remember our video from the 2010 climbing championships at Schloss Dyck? Back then, Alexander and Kevin were competing with the world’s best professional tree climbers. The younger siblings watched spellbound and at the end of the video William drove his bobby car through […]

For the Baumdienst Siebengebirge tree service, my family, and our customers, there is nothing better than being able to preserve old trees for a long time. These trees are often associated with precious memories. With our experience, we have managed to save many trees, even natural monuments, when other “experts” had already given up on […]

Spring is just around the corner and in a few weeks the trees will be in full leaf again. So don’t miss the short window of opportunity: now is still the time to arrange a free professional tree inspection at your premises via our office. (Tel: 02645 / 9999-000) Why is a professional inspection so […]

The trees in our region are now under constant stress. Periods of intense heat in summer are followed by torrential rains. The already damaged roots find less support in the eroded soil, causing the tree to lose stability. If the initial signs are overlooked, such a tree can become a major danger to its surroundings. […]

Among the most beautiful experiences in our profession are the moments when we manage to save a tree that other supposed experts have already given up on and recommended felling. This summer, my sons had such an experience when they were asked to assess an apple tree that was unlikely to be saved. It had […]

In the wild and in home gardens, isolated trees from former groves are particularly vulnerable to wind and weather. I am often asked, “Are the storms getting stronger, or are the trees more vulnerable than they used to be?” In fact, both are true. Natural events such as heavy rains and violent storms are occurring […]

The weather, the temperature and the energy costs… Surely these are even more important topics for you than already in the previous years. Because of the energy costs, we humans have wished for a mild winter. For the trees, however, moderate temperatures in winter mean double stress. This is because the growing season starts earlier. […]

Are you also worried whether your trees will survive the winter safely? This concern is absolutely justified, because the trees are very weakened by the long-lasting heat periods of the last summers. The trees have not yet shed all their leaves. All the more reason for me and my sons to notice a disturbing phenomenon […]

Historic lows are being reported in the river levels, and there is a high risk of fire in the forests. In many places, water has to be rationed. England is suffering from the hottest summer in 50 years. The consequences of climate change have reached us much earlier and far more drastically than experts had […]

We have built up a relationship of trust with many customers over the decades. Friendships have grown out of it. My sons Kevin, Alex, and Luke, who today manage the Baumdienst Siebengebirge, know many still as children, who even back then were enthusiastic about climbing to the top of the trees. When new customers approach […]
