Why Choose Tree and Hedgerow Planting?
Trees and hedgerows do a lot more than just look good. They provide shelter and food for wildlife, improve air quality, reduce noise, help with drainage and can significantly improve the look and value of a property. Getting the species and positioning right from the start makes a big difference to how well they establish and how much maintenance they need going forward.
Tree Planting Services: Tailored to Your Landscape
When it comes to tree and hedge planting, Treemedic follows a meticulous approach to ensure every plant establishes successfully and thrives for years to come. Our process includes assessment, selection, professional planting, and long-term aftercare.
Site Assessment:
Every planting job starts with us looking at the site properly. Soil type, drainage, light levels and available space all affect which species will do well and which won't. Getting this right at the start saves a lot of problems further down the line.
Species Selection:
Choosing the right species for your site and goals is one of the most important parts of the job. We can advise on native and ornamental trees suited to Surrey's soil and climate, whether you are after shade, seasonal colour, wildlife value or privacy. We source from trusted UK nurseries to make sure you are getting good quality stock.
Planting Process:
Our arborists handle the full planting process, from correct spacing and depth to soil preparation and staking where needed. Everything is done properly to give each tree or hedge the best possible start.
Aftercare Advice:
Once planting is done we will give you clear advice on watering, mulching and any early pruning needed. The first couple of seasons are the most critical for establishment and we will make sure you know what to look out for.
Hedgerow Planting: Creating Natural Borders and Wildlife Habitats
Hedgerows are more than decorative features — they serve as living fences, privacy screens, and vital wildlife corridors. Treemedic’s hedgerow planting services are customised to balance functionality, biodiversity, and visual appeal.
Planning and Design:
Before we plant anything we will talk through what you are trying to achieve. Whether that is screening, defining a boundary, or creating a habitat for wildlife, we will plan the layout and species mix to suit the site and give you the result you are after.
Species Selection:
We plant a range of native hedging species including hawthorn, field maple, hazel and beech, all of which are well suited to Surrey conditions. Native species establish well, require less intervention and provide the best value for wildlife. We can also mix species to give year-round interest and seasonal variation.
Planting Techniques:
Correct spacing and planting depth make a real difference to how quickly a hedge establishes and how dense it grows. We plant with care and will always explain what we have done and why so you understand how to look after it going forward.
Maintenance Guidance:
We will give you a clear maintenance schedule covering formative pruning in year one and ongoing shaping as the hedge matures. If you would rather hand it back to us to maintain, we offer regular hedge cutting visits as part of our ongoing service.
Why It's Worth Doing Right
A badly planted tree or hedge can fail to establish, grow in the wrong direction or need removing within a few years. Done well, trees and hedgerows planted today will still be improving your property in 20 or 30 years time. We take the time to get it right and our advice is always honest – if something is not going to work in your space, we will tell you.

Common Questions About Tree & Hedgerow Planting
Our clients often ask about the best planting times, species options, and maintenance. The answers below address the most frequent questions we receive.
When is the best time to plant trees and hedges?
The best time for planting is usually autumn through early spring, when the ground is workable and trees are dormant. This allows roots to establish before summer heat or winter frost. Container-grown plants can be planted at most times of year if watered well.
Do you supply the trees and hedging plants?
Yes – Treemedic Ltd can source and supply quality trees and hedging species from trusted UK nurseries, ensuring the right size, species, and quality for your site and soil conditions.
Can you help design and space the planting?
Absolutely. We can advise on spacing, layout, and species choice based on your goals — whether you want privacy screening, wildlife hedging, or ornamental planting.
Do you offer aftercare or maintenance once planting is complete?
Yes – we can provide aftercare plans, including watering schedules, formative pruning, and hedge trimming to ensure strong establishment and long-term health.
