Highlights

"I found LC Tree Care and another Tree Surgeon on Trusted Traders. After a visit from both and (identical!) quotes, I chose LC because of their approach during the visit. They provided me with the details of their liability insurance ahead of the day. They arrived early, after checking with me first about bringing the time forward, and did an excellent job of removing 5 dead conifers from the rear of the garden. With the prior agreement of my neighbour, they removed two fence panels between our properties to allow for more efficient and safer working. The trees were down and chipped in short order and everything was left exactly as they found it. Highly recommended."

"I've used Leigh before to tidy up a hedge of conifers. He came highly recommended. I engaged him to remove two of the largest trees of that hedge and clear two flower beds in preparation for building work. Leigh came to site to quote beforehand. He reviewed the work to be done in detail, checking he had a full understanding of what was required. He then priced the job and provided me with his availability. I decided his price was fair given the work and booked him in. He turned up at site and started straight away. His team were incredibly professional and hard working. Any time he came up against an issue he discussed it with me and proposed a solution. For example, he needed to temporarily remove a fence panel to allow his stump grinder access to the garden. At the end of the day, he confirmed what had been done and left the site spotless, taking all the organic waste with him. I was incredibly impressed with his professionalism and attitude. I would definitely use him again."

Lee Colyer and his team performed an expert job in a most efficient and pleasant manner. They accommodated the date of commencement, arrived on time prepared access to maintain safety off decor and structure. They were pleasant to deal with and polite. The costing were most reasonable, and following the tree felling and trimming the area was left extremely tidy, perfectly in order with no damage whatsoever. What more can one ask for!

Lee and his team pollarded two trees, dismantled a lime tree and ground the stump at one of our sites. I had sought quotations from other suppliers, Lee's quote was by far the most reasonable. Lee and his team were quick, efficient and easy to deal with from start to finish. They left the site incredibly tidy, so much so I told the site cleaner not to come. Lee is very professional, and you can tell he has invested well in his business with the specialist equipment he brought to the site. It was clear he was passionate and cared about the customer experience. I would certainly use and recommend LC Tree Care going forward.

Leigh and his team were knowledgeable, friendly and polite. They turned up when they said they would and took away all the clippings and waste. This is the second time I've used LC Tree Care and he service is good.

Lee gave me a good price to remove a forty foot conifer, heavily prune a large beech, and cut back trees overhanging down one side of our garden. He turned up promptly with Jordan and Will who cracked on with only a brief pause for lunch. All work done on the day and left the site squeaky clean. Will definitely use them again.

I contacted LC to have a review and recommendations on the Oak Tree in our garden which has a habit of dropping branches and was in need of some thinning etc.. Lee looked at the tree and recommended the work to be done and provided a quotation. A date was agreed and LC turned up at the time agreed. The details of the work were explained and the job started. When carrying out the work, health and safety precautions were excellent. The garden was left tidy on completion of the work.

We have used LC Tree Care many times over the last several years for both domestic and commercial jobs. Their extensive knowledge, reliability, good pricing, politeness and great customer service are why we will always use LC Tree Care time and time again, and they never leave a mess. A real harding working company you can rely on.

Dan and the rest of the team came out to remove the top of a very large sycamore tree in our garden which had become hollow and unsafe. We were very pleased with the way they dealt with the removal. Extremely careful and cleared up everything after themselves. They had a long day and all worked really hard to get the job finished. Highly recommend them.

Good service once again. All operatives with correct PPE, working with correct plant and equipment. Work completed on time and site left tidy.

Lee and his team did an excellent job in my front my garden which needed a tree removing and a couple of hedges trimming. Lee was very professional and knowledgeable, and he and his team were correctly equipped with PPE. Their vehicle was properly illuminated and had the right equipment to dispose of the tree and the hedge trimmings. They cleared up once the job was complete and, for such an excellent and expeditious service, they were very competitively priced. I would have no hesitation in recommending LC Tree Care to any of my friends and family.

Lee and his team did a great job trimming back two trees which were overhanging into the neighbour's garden. We contacted Lee for a quote in October and arranged a mutually convenient time with the neighbour for Lee and his team to do the work. The team took great care with the trees and the surrounding plants. There was great communication throughout. Our neighbour was also very pleased with the work and mentioned how tidy they had left his side of the garden.

I'm always suspicious of 5 star ratings but anything less than 5 stars wouldn't do justice to Lee and his team. Punctual professional courteous and treat your property as their own. Use LC with complete confidence

I contacted Lee regarding removing the tree that was overhanging my car. Within 3 days of contacting him, he came with his team to remove the tree. Absolutely wonderful service, very fast work and they left with everything clean and tidy. You would not have even known that a tree had been there. I totally recommend Lee and his team at 'LC Tree Care'

LCTree care, headed by Lee, is a friendly, efficient and professional company. Their quote to remove a dead tree was very competitive and they left the site tidier than when they started! I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or to recommend them.

Lee comes to us every spring for some tree work and cutting our 2m-high hedges. This year we also had a yew tree removed including the stump and roots, plus removal of overhanging branches from an adjacent property. They did an excellent job with an impressive range of equipment. It was done all in one day, including a complete tidy-up of the garden and cleaning mud from the drive. We also have the bonus of a new white gravel garden. An excellent job as usual. Lee and his crew are always so efficient, polite and take great care.

Lee & his team were taken on to remove several large trees at home and to remove all the roots. Their quote was extremely reasonable and their office confirmed everything in writing, including a copy of their current insurance policy. On the day the team arrived it was obvious that health and safety measures were taken seriously. They worked through the front and rear garden methodically, advising me of anything that needed a decision as they went. They tidied up meticulously and walked me through the work they had completed. I was very impressed and all the team were extremely polite and engaging. They were a pleasure to have on site and I would highly recommend them.

Lee and Tom were very respectful both to us and our property. They clearly wanted us to be happy with their work and asked us to review their progress several times. We are very happy with their work and the fee charged. They used electrically powered tools where possible and therefore there was not the noise pollution of petrol power. They left the site clean and tidy. We shall definitely ask them to look after our other trees.
