At Altom Tree Care Ltd, nothing is more important to us than the health, safety and welfare of our employees and Thame-based customers. Whether working at height to perform sectional dismantling or using powerful equipment for stump removals, we regularly engage in tree surgery that carries a certain level of risk. That is why we always perform a thorough risk assessment before undertaking any job.That is why we always perform a thorough risk assessment before undertaking any job.
Our tree surgeons have BTEC and City & Guilds qualifications, as well as NPTC certification for spraying, machinery and chainsaws. This enables us to carry out tree felling, hedge cutting and site clearance services safely in and around the areas we cover. We also offer in-house training for our personnel to ensure they remain up to date with the latest techniques and equipment for their safety and that of our customers.

We always adhere to the following regulations:
For any tree surgery or hedge maintenance job we undertake, our arborists always conduct a site inspection and full risk assessment before we begin. This helps reduce the risk of property damage and personal injury to ourselves, our clients and passersby.
When working with tools such as hedge cutting equipment and stump removal machinery, we insist that our tree surgeons always wear appropriate safety gear. That is why Altom Tree Care Ltd provides every member of our team with helmets, gloves, ear defenders, safety goggles and other PPE.
Whether tackling site clearances around Thame, trimming tall hedges or performing general tree surgery and stump grinding, we often use equipment that enables us to work at height. Our extensive training and experience ensure we always use rigging equipment, ladders and climbing harnesses appropriately to reduce the risk of falling.
Performing stump removals with grinding machinery and using hedge cutting equipment to trim hedgerows can create potentially hazardous substances like diesel fumes and sawdust. Our arborists equip our personnel with appropriate gear to reduce the risk of inhaling these harmful substances.
If, for any reason, our tree surgeons can’t use standard climbing equipment to scale a tree, we often use mobile elevated work platforms. This enables us to carry out pruning and sectional dismantling of specimens that are too weak or unstable to climb, making clearances and general tree surgery work far safer for our team.
Our tree surgeons often use powerful machinery and equipment when tackling stump removals, stump grinding, tree felling and hedge trimming around Thame. Thanks to our comprehensive in-house training, along with our personnel's experience and qualifications, we know how to handle and care for this equipment to keep it functioning safely and efficiently at all times.
By strictly adhering to these regulations and our company health and safety guidelines, Altom Tree Care Ltd takes appropriate steps to minimise the risk of property damage and personal injury during all hedge maintenance services.
Our work can be hazardous at times, but we approach every job with the same care and attention as always. When you choose our team, you choose the highest standards:
