Highlights
"I have used Arborfield Tree Care for a number of years. I would have no hesitation in recommending them. Their customer service is excellent from start to finish. They do a great job on site and, when they leave, you wouldn't even know they have been as they leave the site clean, tidy and completely free of any debris."
"From the initial contact, to meeting to discuss the job, the feedback, the quote and the planning of the work, everything was seamless and the communication was great. The job was understood and carried out to the letter. They were courteous to my neighbours whilst the work was carried out and carried out a thorough tidy of the area both in the garden and out the front of the property where the trees were fed into the chipper. Would gladly use again should the need arise."

The guys that showed up were prompt, professional, courteous and got the job done. They then tidied up and left after checking I was happy with the work. Impressed and would use again.
Great work by the team who pruned a large maple tree for us at a competitive price. They were very polite, efficient and cleaned up after themselves. Only one gripe, we didn’t know what time they would be arriving on the day.We have used Arborfield Tree Care before and would use them again.

Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check — a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 10 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Tree work is dangerous and unregulated - anyone can call themselves a tree surgeon. Arboricultural Association ARB Approved Contractors are independently assessed for the quality of their tree work, their qualifications, their insurance and their health & safety, and are re-assessed regularly. Check they're listed before work starts near your home or power lines.
Check the ARB Approved Contractor directoryCheck they carry public-liability insurance (commonly £2–5m) and ask to SEE the certificate — tree work is high-risk and damage to your property, a neighbour's, or a person is expensive to put right.
Before any felling or heavy pruning, check whether the tree is protected — a preservation order, a conservation area, or active bird nesting — because YOU, the homeowner, can be fined for unauthorised work, not just the contractor.
Get the scope in writing (which trees, how much to take off, and who removes the waste and grinds the stump), and never pay in full before the work is finished.
