Shire Wood Fuel

About

We offer all the following:

Kiln dried hardwood fuel, With the environment in mind, we produce excellent firewood logs that are from a local sustainable source
Trees contain natural moisture that can remain in the wood for a period of time. Unseasoned logs will contain this moisture and when burnt will produce smoke and other by-products that could potentially damage your chimney.
The benefit of our kiln dried logs is the moisture content is less than 20%. This will not only be better for your fire but will produce a maximum heat output.

Tree removal, The total removal of tree through either felling or sectional dismantle to ground level.
Pollarding/Repollarding, The removal of all branches to a point along the main stems and allowing the crown to regenerate. Often a useful alternative to removing the tree.
Especially in the case of severely diseased or damaged trees.
Grounds maintenance, We can carry out a variety of grounds maintenance works including general garden maintenance and overgrown garden clearance (removal of brambles, strimming etc) .
Crown Thinning, Lifting or Reduction, Crown thinning allows more light to get to shady areas below the tree.
Crown lifting removes lower branches and increases clearance between the crown and the ground.
Crown reduction is a shortening of the crown branches to provide a balanced shape and controlled growth.
Stump Removal, Stump grinding will prevent most stumps from regenerating and can be beneficial in the control of diseases such as Honey Fungus. This common tree disease feeds on dead woody material in the ground so thorough stump removal can play an important role in limiting the spread of Honey Fungus.
Formative Pruning, The removal of dead, diseased, dying, crossing and rubbing branches from the crown to promote a balanced and healthy branch structure.
