Highlights
“turned up next day at the time specified removed the stump in 15 minutes and also did another for us on the way out. highly recommend”
“Highly recommend these guys, they carried out pollarding work to 3 large lime trees, they arrived when they said they would, they were respectful to their working environment and they cleaned up after, to a point you could barely tell they had been, on top of all this the price was right, thanks.”
“I couldn't believe how quickly and efficiently the job was done. In about an hour they cut down the tree, shredded it, cleaned up my garden and departed! If I had even thought about attempting it myself it would have taken longer than that just going to the tip with the debris and my garden would never have looked so tidy. Very happy with the work carried out and the result”

What to check before you hire
Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour. A vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials'. Agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated. Protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
