> "They guys were hugely knowledgeable and really helped to steer us in the right direction in terms of what needed to be done. They arrived on time and made quick work of removing two trees entirely and taking away the debris. They also trimmed back another tree and the hedges in the back garden. They were remarkably polite and left the garden neat and tidy. Will definitely be using them again. Cracking."

## Before you hire a tree surgeon / arborist
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade — general guidance, not a claim about this business:_
- Check 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.
- Prefer a tree surgeon approved by the Arboricultural Association, and check with your local council's tree officer before working on any protected tree or one in a conservation area.
- Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
