In recent years, the construction and infrastructure sectors have undergone a clear shift in what clients value from their contractors and supply chains.

Clients are no longer focused solely on lowest cost or basic compliance. Instead, they are looking for partners who can consistently deliver safety, quality, transparency, and long-term value across their assets

In April 2025, the Environment Agency (EA) introduced new annual charges for waste exemptions, a move that initially created uncertainty across the arboricultural sector.

The changes raised questions about T6 exemptions and whether contractors engaged in chipping wood would now face added costs or regulatory burdens.

Beechwood Trees and Landscapes Ltd is proud to announce the successful renewal of our partnership with Erewash Borough Council, having secured the Arboricultural Services Framework for the third time running.

This repeated appointment is not only a significant win for Beechwood but a clear vote of confidence in our performance, compliance, and value delivery in the local authority tree maintenance sector.

This year has been one of growth, momentum and continued investment in the future of our industry. Take a look at our wrapped video linked below!

Autumn used to be predictable: cooler days, a sharp drop in temperature, and the steady shift from green canopies to deep gold and rust. Across the UK, 2025 has delivered yet another mild autumn — softer temperatures, fewer early frosts, and trees hanging onto their leaves far longer than expected.

The London Tree Officers Association (LTOA) has just released its revised Guide to Risk Management Strategies for Tree Root Claims, a timely update in the wake of increasingly hot summers and rising concerns over tree-related subsidence.

This guide is essential reading for property owners, local authorities, and arboricultural professionals alike.

A Guide and how Beechwood can help

Biodiversity is simply the variety of life in a place, everything from trees and shrubs to fungi, insects, birds, mammals and the microbes in the soil. It shows up at three levels:

We’re proud to share that Beechwood Trees and Landscapes Ltd has been named Arboriculture Company of the Year at the Pro Landscaper Sustainability & Biodiversity Awards.

The awards recognise organisations driving practical, measurable progress on climate, biodiversity and long-term commitment across our industry.

The latest HortWeek survey, in partnership with the Professional Gardeners’ Guild, has sparked important conversations across the horticulture and arboriculture sectors.
