    Great service

    Jack and his team did a great job pruning and lopping some pleached trees at my house. They were punctual, friendly and carried out the work very quickly. They tidied up after themselves and would recommend their services.

    Crown reduction of an oak tree

    Jack and the lads provided a great service. Turned up on time, completed the crown reduction of the oak tree in our back garden and tidied up after themselves. They explained the process and gave us some great tips on how to keep the oak healthy as we are currently doing some landscaping work.

    Tree Pruning

    Cutting overhanging neighbours trees

    Called for a quote and almost immediately was visited and given a very good price, to be honest I hadnt shopped around but had confidence in the advice that was given on the work and the quote was around the price I expected. Jack and crew followed just a week or so later, they did a fantastic job, neat and tidy and cleaned the garden as well. Highly recommended 5*

    Crown Reduction

    Posted 26 May

    tree felling and pruning

    Jack and his partner came to chop down a tall cherry tree that had suddenly died. They also pruned a bay tree. They were easy to communicate with, friendly and pleasant. They worked quickly, cleared up all the debris and left our garden tidy. They were that professional that we passed on their number to our neighbour who is contacting them. We will ask them to return, as we have done before, to keep our bay tree in shape.

    Tree Felling

    Posted 16 May

    Diseased Oak tree with preservation order removal

    Jack and his team completed the removal of a huge oak tree. They helped us massively with the paperwork as it had a preservation order on it, which we were really struggling with. The removal of the tree was a monster job involving a crane and it went seamlessly!! Super professional, skill-full and perfectly completed. New tree now planted and we are over the moon with the results. Could not recommend these guys highly enough, top top drawer !!!

Conifer removal. The trees were located on a bank and wind-throw was a concern. Removal of the trees was the safest option.
