    Our huge horse chestnut tree was cut back by 50%

    Posted 11 January

    Dave and his team were fantastic. The tree was huge and they cut it back by 50% which has made a big difference to our garden and the light. They were fast, efficient and tidied behind them (the garden looks tidier than before). I would highly recommend them.

    Removal of large conifer to ground level

    Posted 22 November 2024

    After a postponed start due to illness, the contractor made a big effort to rearrange and carry out the work to the new date. David carried out the work effeciently and left the site in a very tidy state afterwards. The work also involved pollarding some other trees, which was also carried out very professionally. The work involved cooperating with a neighbour, and David has been courteous throughout.

    Removal to ground level of a large conifer

    Posted 22 November 2024

    After postponing the date due to illness, David made a great effort to rearrange and complete to the new timing. Dave was polite and cooperative throughout, and also made an excellent job of clearing up afterwards. This was not an easy job and involved cooperating with a neighbour, and setting up the shredding machine on a busy side road. David also pollarded some trees as part of the contract and did an excellant job on this as well.

    Tree stump grinding

    Posted 07 November 2024

    David reviewed the job from photos I sent and called me soon after to explain the work and any potential issues. The price quoted was good and we agreed a date and time that worked for us. His team arrived on time and were friendly, courteous, professional and hard-working. David spoke to me at various stages of the work, which was really appreciated. The team took away all cuts and cleaned the whole area of sawdust (including neighbours garden). I highly recommend DR Tree Services and would not hesitate to use them again. We are very pleased with the work they have done.
