Highlights

"The work was first class, as was the overall service."

"I have an oak tree in my back garden which had grown very spindly. Rob came and quoted for the job and his team came and completed it a few days later. Quickly and neatly done and all waste removed. Fast and friendly - and good value. Would definitely recommend."

"Nice couple of guys arrived, assessed the tree to see if it could be saved. Sadly the main root had snapped so they cut up the tree and neatly stacked the logs/branches, cleared up and left the site in a tidy state"

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 directory

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.
