Treeclear UK provides a range of mechanical habitat management services. We predominantly provide habitat management in Lancashire, Cumbria, Cheshire, Yorkshire, Northumberland & Co Durham. We also cover Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, and Cambridgeshire. 

Habitat management is the act of enhancing or preserving a varied range of environments. This can include management practices to help or protect threatened species.

Habitat management operations are often time sensitive and are normally performed at a suitable time of the year to reduce impact on breeding and hibernating species.

Mechanical tree felling and selectively removing trees by tree shearing to open up areas, felled trees can be used to enhance an area and if stacked correctly, they make perfect wildlife habitat piles.

Opening up existing ponds to bring them back into a managed habitat, ponds are vital for biodiversity as they support a vast amount of wildlife as well as a source of freshwater.

Mulching to create breeding sites has become an increasingly important part. of the service Treeclear UK offers. Selectively mulching areas of bracken, heather, scrub pine and birch opens up important areas for potential nesting sites for birds such as nightjar.

This work normally takes place on peatland sites which are sites of special scientific interest (SSSi) or Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) so a sensitive approach is always adopted for this type of habitat creation.

Controlling a site’s hydrology can be an important step to creating habitats. Rewetting is a process of creating bunds and ditch blocks to raise the water level on a site, normally a nature reserve or a degrading peat bog.

I have used TreeClear UK as contractors for the last nine years and have always been really impressed with their service and approach to each job. Anthony Lambert and his team bring extensive knowledge and experience that is applied with diligence to difficult work sites. The use of their low ground pressure tracked machines on peat mires leave very little impact on sensitive vegetation. Their bespoke mulching equipment has efficiently dealt with really dense stands of rhododendron and regenerated Sitka spruce, reducing material to a manageable chip mat. Our landowners and other clients have been extremely pleased with the end result. I would always recommend TreeClear UK for clearance work on sensitive tree/shrub clearance sites.

Treeclear removed trees, scrub and rhododendron during the winters of 2021/22 and 2022/23 at on of our National Nature Reserves. They delivered an excellent service; competent, practical and efficient on a complex and hazardous site. Their understanding of the difficulties in working on a raised bog and their expert use of specialist equipment was integral to the successful delivery of the project which has allowed us to restore key parts of the habitat to benefit biodiversity and help reduce CO2 emissions.
