Highlights

"Carrington are a very professional company. They were very polite. Cleared up everything behind them. The work carried out was on 2 conifer trees that were very close together and had grown exceptionally tall and bushy. They trimmed them in height and width and made them look like one tree. Exceptional work and my trees now look fantastic. I would definitely recommend. Very good value for money."

Contacted Nigel about an overgrown olive tree. He advised the best time to do the work and provided a quote. His team arrived on the agreed day and time. All work was discussed with me beforehand. Carried out work quickly and professionally. The team were polite and helpful. The area was cleared afterwards, all debris removed. Would not hesitate to recommend this company and to use them again myself in the future.

Incredibly quick massive eucalyptus tree clearance followed by further two tree clearances and two additional tree surgeries with further smaller trees and undergrowth also cleared. Logging and stacking of the wood for future use was also undertaken. All to agreed schedule and price and with excellent garden tidying post the work. Very friendly very efficient and a really good job by a skilled and pleasant team led by Nigel. Thoroughly recommended.

Had tree and overgrown shrub causing a problem on a boundry fence. I telephoned, left a message, and received a call back right on time. Explained predicament - Nigel and team arrived next morning, on time as promised, and did a brilliant job of removing. I would highly recommend and infact have obtained an estimate for further work in due course.

Carringtons tamed a large hedge that was far too big for me to manage. Quoting, communication, timekeeping & quality of work are all excellent & dealing with them was an absolute pleasure. Will def use again & would highly recommend.

The first time we have used this company and they were very professional, prompt, left the site very tidy, a good price for the job, and most importantly the trees looked amazing when the job was finished, would recommend this company to anyone looking for a tree surgery work.

Nigel and his team provide a very friendly and efficient service which makes dealing with them a pleasure. The eucalyptus tree in my garden was getting out of hand and has been trimmed right back but, still looks a very pleasant shape. All the work undertaken is cleared away and you wouldn’t know that they had been. Superb job.

Nigel and his team have done two jobs for me now. The first time they pruned two trees back and cared for and cleared some conifers which had become overgrown. The second time they cut down a tree, shaped another and shaped and cleared some high hard-to-reach hedging. Both times Nigel visited and talked through exactly what I wanted. Approachable, helpful and clearly very knowledgeable giving honest, fair advice. The work that the team did was exactly as discussed and better, and the price was exactly as the quote was given initially. Fantastic job, completely recommend and will be using their services again. Thank you Nigel and the team.

Following a house move, we needed to seriously prune some of the trees and hedges on the property. Nigel came and gave advice on what needed to be done and what could wait until another year, clearly knowledgeable on the types of trees concerned. Also gave a reasonable quote. Due to other work being done, we had to put Nigel off until we were ready but he was completely understanding and fitted us in once we were ready to proceed. Turned up on the agreed day with a small team who all worked quickly and efficiently to get the work done. They protected other plants and flowers as best as possible while they worked, and removed all cuttings on completion leaving the garden neat and tidy again. They were also very sensitive about the possibility of nesting birds in the trees while they were pruning them. We're very pleased with the result and will happily use him again.

Carringtons removed a 30ft+ tree in my garden. They completed the work efficiently and without damage to the surrounding vegetation. The branches were removed and put through a chipper and the trunk was removed in manageable sized pieces. Small twigs etc were removed in bags leaving the garden clean and tidy. I was impressed with their professionalism and safe working practices. The work was completed on time and on budget. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Carringtons again and would recommend them to anyone needing similar work done.

We've used Nigel and his team for many years for various projects ranging from large to small and he always makes time to fit us in. Always gives great advice, always turns up on time, always clears up (not always the case with many tradesmen), always friendly and always reliable. Couldn't recommend high enough.

Experienced tree surgeons who know their ‘stuff’. Communication is great and they arrive on time. No time wasting, straight on the job! The guys work quickly and thoroughly. Afterwards my garden was cleared and you’d have no idea that I’d had so much work done! Garden looks fabulous, so neat and tidy. Would recommend to all.

Carringtons pruned our mature Bay tree and did an excellent job. Arrived promptly, did a thorough job and cleaned up afterwards. We are very pleased with the results and at a price that was good value. I can happily recommend Nigel and his team.

Nigel and his team showed up when they said they would and done a great job cutting back the conifers away from our house. Would 100% use again!
