“A three man team of very polite and professional guys did a great job of my treework yesterday. Large box elder and large larch tree was reduced in height, thinned out back to growing tips and crown reshaped. Two smaller maple trees were reduced in height and reshaped and a very large pittosporum shrub was reduced in height. The guys took care to carefully prune the trees into a natural shaped canopy and safely remove the branches. Shed roof and lawn were protected with boards before the work began. End result is great - natural looking with privacy maintained but now much neater.”

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 directoryPublic-liability cover for tree work is commonly £2–5m. Anything much lower is worth questioning on a big job.
Check they carry public-liability insurance 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.
