“We had a very large tree reduced by around 25% and a smaller tree that was overhanging the house taken down to ground level. The end result was better than we could possibly have hoped for. Stephen, Ben and Alex completed a very sympathetic reshaping, chipping the offcuts and cleaning up to leave the site immaculate. The fallen tree was left on site in rings as arranged. I would recommend SJ Farley to anyone needed a tree surgeon and we'll definitely ask them back to reduce another large tree next winter.”

Highlights
“2 silver birch trees and a horse chestnut tree trimmed back. Pitched up when they said they would, completed the job in the day, tidied up and left the chippings and logs as my wife requested.”
“Stephen came to cut down an old tree. Arrived when expected, did a great job in a friendly way, and left the garden much tidier than I had thought would be managed. We have used the team before and would definitely recommend.”

What to check before you hire
Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour. A vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials'. Agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated. Protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
