> "This work was very expensive £900 to clear a fallen tree. I was disappointed that many branches were left on the floor and also that a damaged tree next to it was not cut back far enough. As this was paid for by insurance, the insurance company have had to send someone else. Did send an email saying I was disappointed but received no response."

## 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.
