    Pruning overgrown apply tree and reducing height of laurel

    Posted 24 February

    Josh has been really helpful from the quote to the work being done today. Josh and Steve were polite, punctual and left the site clear. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending them to anyone wanting tree work, in fact we already have recommended them to our neighbour.

    Reduction in height and spread of acacia tree.

    Posted 20 February

    I had used JL Tree Care to prune the same tree two years ago. They did an excellent job so I did not hesitate to ask them again this time. Josh responded promptly to my initial contact and arrived slightly earlier than expected to do the job. He gave me an opportunity to check that I was happy with the work and then he and his colleague cleared away all the waste and left my garden tidier than before.

    Felling large shrub

    Posted 18 February

    This is the second time I have used JL Treecare. This time they cut down a very overgrown shrub in the garden and cleared it all away. Josh and JL Treecare are very easy to work with, they are prompt in replying to enquiries, polite and very reliable and all debris is cleared and the garden is left tidy afterwards. I have been very happy with their work and would highly recommend them.
