Official checkOn the public register
Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 12 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Steve and his team did a fantastic job removing a couple of dead trees, crowning a plum tree and topping conifers, very tidy and efficient.
Steve and his team did an amazing job. A lovely crew who left my garden and drive tidier than when they arrived. I would recommend “ Southcoast Tree Care Ltd “ to anyone.
Steve came and sorted out a couple of bits left at the original visit, otherwise it would all have been 10/10

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.
