A phone conversation with Justin, promptly after my enquiry, suggested his aptitude and appetite for this considerable task. It’s a long time since we encountered a trained/qualified tradesperson demonstrating such professionalism, skill, enthusiasm, tireless work/safety ethic, great energy levels, pleasant demeanour and punctuality (and, over three days, there was a LOT of waste to be disposed of by correct methods!). He followed my brief ‘to the letter’. Highly recommended." > — Thanks (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "Justin was brilliant. He was clear up front about the cost. He was polite, helpful and to be honest, a breath of fresh air. I've been ripped off plenty of times in the past, so to have Justin who actually does what he says he's going to do and you end up paying exactly what he said it would cost was fantastic and took the stress out of employing somebody to carry out work in my home. I will 100% being going back to Justin and can't recommend Justin enough! Top bloke 10 of of 10!" > — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "Quick turnaround from initial contact and all sorted out in a day, reasonable price and the job exactly what I wanted. Left job in a tidy manner all debris removed, thanks very much." > — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) ## Trades Tree surgeon / arborist ## Independent verification _What MyTrustedTraders independently checked for this business (verified items only):_ - Review volume: MTT is showing 47 public reviews on this profile.
