Care & Maintenance for the Tree's and Hedges in Your Garden & Surrounding Areas
“If a person’s home is their castle, then the garden is their kingdom.”
In other words, trees need caring for – and we are happy to provide expert, professional and hassle-free care. Whether you are looking to bring more light into your garden, tidy up an unsightly tree or remove one completely, we offer a comprehensive service that is sensitive to your home and neighbours.
We will behave as any good guest should, with courtesy and politeness. We appreciate in many instances we will need to work beyond the boundaries of your home, therefore we make every effort to accommodate the needs of neighbours with sensitivity.
Where there is a particular dispute about a neighbouring tree, we are happy to prune overhanging branches to the boundary; however, we are legally unable to go any further without the neighbour’s consent.
Similarly, if there is any likelihood that working on a tree may breach a conservation order or tree preservation order, we will advise you on how to check with your local council. If required, we can submit applications on your behalf and manage the permission correctly and in a timely manner.

Why choose us for garden maintenance & private work?
We have over 25 years’ experience, delivering competitive pricing, professional tree care by qualified arborists, we are very reliable, polite and leave the site clean and tidy.
We carry Public Liability Insurance with £10,000,000 cover and we carry Professional Indemnity Insurance for all our tree surveys and advice given.
We take care of all the paperwork, such as applications for TPO’d trees or trees within a Conservation Area. We will liaise with all appropriate third parties, saving you from unnecessary hassle and administration. We have sound knowledge of the planning system and local authority requirements. We are happy to deal directly with members of the public, homeowners, tenants, site managers or with business owners at all levels.
Timings are always to suit you. Work at Schools is generally scheduled to take place in the school holidays, whenever possible, to avoid unnecessary risk and disruption. On construction sites, we will fit in around the contractor’s schedule and agree on a plan.
If you wish to keep woodchip or logs, that’s fine – but rest assured we will remove anything you don’t want to keep. We take environmental concerns seriously and all waste is recycled or left in habitat piles for wildlife.
Furthermore, our works are planned to avoid disturbance of wildlife, while all machinery, tools and vehicles are fully maintained to maximise efficiency and reduce emissions.
How we work
BEFORE
We offer a free consultation and no-obligation quote emailed within 24 hrs and also in writing. Since no two projects are the same, we always recommend a visit to ascertain the scope of the work required, but please let us know if this is difficult and we will do our best to accommodate you.
DURING
We will work at your convenience; we can work when you are out provided we have sufficient access, and we do not require any electricity as our tools are all powered by petrol or diesel.
AFTER
We take away all tree waste as standard, but if you would prefer to keep logs or chippings, we are happy to do that.
