Highlights

"Very prompt and efficient at lopping a big poplar tree in a difficult position. Very sensitive to health and safety and they cleared up well before they left. Will use again."

arowbaWhich? Trusted Traders5.0 rating

"Simon took down a Eucalyptus tree and an apple tree, and pruned three other fruit trees. Done very effciently and left the garden tidier than when they'd arrived, including leaving a chopped up pile of logs for our fire. It took a while to schedule their visit after getting the quote because they were very busy, but would definitely use again."

I asked this Company to reduce the height of a beech hedge and remove a holly tree. They visited promptly and quoted very competitively. The work was completed quickly and efficiently by a friendly and well motivated crew. They paid particular attention to clearing up the site. I strongly recommend this company for garden services.

Trader arrived to give estimate at appointed time, and we were impressed by his knowledge and personality. However, more than 3 weeks later we are still not in receipt of his estimate. We would have been grateful if he had informed us that he did not have time or want the job, as it delayed us accepting an alternative estimate.

Simon responded quickly to my request for a quote to remove two large conifers and grind the stumps. After a visit, a quotation was emailed to me promptly and it was competitive. We agreed a date. His team arrived on time and started work. They were efficient and quick and had all the necessary equipment to do an effective job. They even cut some of the trunks into logs for me. They not only tidied everything up in my garden, but also went to my neighbour to retrieve the few branches that had fallen over the fence and to vacuum up the sawdust for her. I would have no hesitation in recommending them on the basis of the work they did for me.

I had several trees and large shrubs removed, 2 much larger trees lopped and some ground cleared and weedkiller put down. I was very impressed with how hard the men worked. They were friendly and expertly got the job done. We are extremly happy with the result and would not hestiate to recomend them. The quote was competitive and they did extra bits for me whilst they were there.

I had 3 large trees pruned, a hedge trimmed and a stump ground out. The team arrived promptly and did an excellent job, ensuring that I was happy with how much was to be taken off before they started. clearing away everything and even using a leaf blower so my garden was tidier after they left than before they came. They were friendly and very polite, so my children did not learn any new unsuitable words which has happened in the past with other workmen. Competitive quote. Couldn't find fault with anything.

We needed shaping and height reduction of a neglected leylandii hedge in our back garden, and removal of two small but tall trees. The team turned up on time, were properly equipped, and with appropriate safety items. THey completed the job in a morning and removed all cuttings etc. from the garden and our front drive. The quotation wasn't the cheapest, but we got what we paid for i.e. a professional job well done. Compared to experience with other tree people we have used, this was entirely trouble free, and we'll be using them again

We had let our hedge get too big for us to cut so called this company on the basis of this website. Simon came and did a visit and gave us a quote. The team turned up exactly as arranged and did a very good job, including all the clearing up. Very good service.

Hired them to prune back a large beech tree in my back garden, with relatively limited access through a side conservatory. They turned up on time, were neat and careful, and did a very nice job, cleaning up thoroughly afterwards. Would definitely recommend.

To cut down a 40 year old conifer in a very small garden with access only via the house The speed and coordination of the operation was remarkable The care of disposal of a large quantity of foliage, branches and trunk was meticulous And finally the grinding of the stump with patience All completed with good humor: Thank you all for making a difficult job very easy

Several Cypress trees, Laurel and Elderberry bushes required to be reduced in height and cut back across the whole rear and part side of the garden. Arrived exactly on time and work started immediately. All care was taken to protect the surrounding area i.e. lawns and fences as a lot of the debris had to be removed through the garden. The work was carried out very efficiently and quickly. During the course of the work we asked for some additional work to be carried out and this was agreed but meant that the work would be carried over to the next day to complete. The next day was exactly the same - prompt arrival and quick, efficient work. At the end, the garden was completely cleared of any debris, leaves etc. and was left in perfect order. The people undertaking the work were very nice, polite and hard working. I would have no hesitation in having them back if further work is needed in the future and would wholeheartedly recommend them to others.

We used this company to remove a diseased Norway Spruce and to prune and thin an apple tree and Scots Pine and Oak. All work was undertaken in a safe and very professional manner. All workers were polite and helpful and even replaced garden benches and swing neatly when tidying up. The quote we had received was clear and detailed and was exactly the price paid which seemed very reasonable for the work involved. This is a local firm and we recommend them.
