    Crown Reduction

    Posted 29 April

    A good hardworking knowledgeable team!

    My palm tree was encroaching the telephone lines and the lovely team from Sika cut it back and reshaped it nicely. They also took down a huge vertical branch from my fig tree at the same time. They were punctual, polite and they worked hard and the two jobs were done quickly. They cleared all the bits of branches, etc. and tidied up very conscientiously afterwards. I would definitely recommend them.

    Tree Felling

    Posted 12 April

    Highly recommend Mark and his team at Sika Tree Surgery.

    Mark contacted me the same day and assessed the works to be carried out the next morning. His quote came through very quickly which was accepted and all works completed within 2 weeks. I also asked his to carry out more work re a tree stump removal which was completed within a few days of accepting his quote. Mark and his guys are very professional, polite, friendly and tidy workers. I would highly recommend Mark at Sika Tree Surgery.

    Beautiful reshaping job on Hawthorn tree

    Thank you so much for the wonderful job you did on my hawthorn tree ! It is perfect! Both young men were charming . They listened to what I wanted done to all my trees with great patience and explained how best to achieve it. The garden is now all ready for next summer.

    Emergency Tree Surgeon Service

    Fabulous service

    We had a tree come down on Christmas Day blocking the entrance to a private road in our neighbourhood affecting quite a few residents. Thankfully Mark came out and cleared the tree immediately and enabled us to all enjoy our Christmas Day. What a great guy would highly recommend.

    Emergency Tree Surgeon Service

    Posted 26 December 2025

    Very fair and reasonable emergency service

    A fantastic Christmas day service to clear a very large fallen tree completely blocking a private road with at least thirteen houses downstream reliant on a prompt response. Very fair and reasonable price for such a call out. It was all completed without any fuss or drama.
