    Two trees needed extensive work to keep the branches away from the house.

    Posted 19 October

    I have two large trees whose branches were encroaching on the house, including overhanging the roof. I outlined what was needed and a very reasonable price agreed. On the appointed day, the men from Arbocare arrived on time. The work was completed within a few hours and I was very pleased with the result. They knew exactly what needed doing and the results exceeded my expectations. They removed all material and left my garden neat and tidy. I am very grateful and hope that Arbocare will be able to help with further work in the future.

    Professional Hedge Work. Fully Satisfied.

    Posted 09 September

    Arbocare came to assess our large hedge, which needed taming, and gave a thorough professional review, advising necessary action supported by a detailed quotation. They then turned up on time to do the work (extensive surgery) and did a fantastic job. The friendly, professional team advised and consulted throughout the whole process, and left the area clean and tidy. I would strongly recommend Arbocare.

    Tree pruned, wild growth cleared and tree planted.

    Posted 28 April

    It's not often that you meet a team where you actually enjoy having work done! Mike and his staff were incredibly professional and treated our quite small tree pruning and clearing job like any other, making sure that no cuttings or mess were left. Absolutely recommended for both quality and fair pricing.
