    Professional Family Business

    Posted 25 January

    Have used this company on 2 occasions - 10 years apart. This is a proper local family business. Jack came around to visit and inspect what needed doing, discussed a variety of trees and listened to my thoughts. If a tree only needs a trim that’s all they’ll do. Booked a date for the work, arrived promptly and you wouldn’t even know a leaf had been removed by the time they’d tidied up. Fully recommend.

    Branches Tree Services were excellent!Jack and Adrian tackled all the trees in my garden, reducing them in size. They were professional and knowledgeable and courteous. They were reliable and punctual. They left the garden good and tidy and all for a reasonable price. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone. Many thanks to Branches Tree Services.

    Tree rejuvenated

    Posted 09 December 2025

    We are really pleased with the work carried out on our oak tree. The tree looks quite eye catching now, uniform and lets a lot more light into our houses. They were very professional and personable with the whole process from quote to the work carried out and take a lot of pride in their worlk. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone

Conifer removal. The trees were located on a bank and wind-throw was a concern. Removal of the trees was the safest option.
