    Fantastic job done by a delightful team!

    Posted 1 day ago

    Bruk is one of the most polite people I have met in a long time! He and his staff are delightful, they were respectful to both me and my property cleaning up after themselves. They did a wonderful job and I will definitely be using them again.

    Eucalyptus tree

    Posted 06 July

    I was concerned my eucalyptus tree was unsafe, it leans heavily to one side and had started creaking. I logged the job to have it felled. Bruk came out and reassured me the tree was safe and just needed a heavy prune and untangling from another tree which was causing the creaking. The whole process was carried out within a week. Bruk is very professional and knowledgeable. I would not hesitate in recommending him and his team.

    Topping of trees

    Posted 17 April

    Boss came promptly and we discussed what I needed. He was extremely polite. We agreed a price and he gave me a date. His team of four gentlemen arrived bang on time. They looked very professional in their smart sweatshirts. All four were cheerful and affable. They completed their work with a minimum of fuss and when they had finished, they completely cleared away all the cuttings and left the garden immaculate. A great job leaving one very satisfied customer.

    TREE-mendous service !

    Posted 24 February

    After a worrying time during the recent storms we wanted to have our large and very old sycamore tree cut back considerably and reshaped. We also wanted advice on whether the tree was sufficiently sturdy to withstand any further gales, etc. Bruks visited us to inspect the tree and arranged a date for the work to be done. On the day the crew arrived on time and were absolutely professional. They did the work to the highest possible standard , were friendly and polite throughout , and cleared the work area completely . Bruks then rendered an invoice which we found to be more than fair.

Bruks Tree Surgery is a unique family run business with a military-backbone; offering great service since its creation in 2008 after Bruk completed 23 years of service in the British Army. Based in Thanet and Canterbury, BTS covers every aspect of Tree Work and Garden Maintenance throughout the Kent region, employing many ex-military staff to maintain both precision and manners within an industry not often renowned for either!BTS is very proud to work with The Prince’s Trust and with several local Primary & Secondary schools in order to offer relevant key skills and experience to many young people interested in the Arboricultural and Creative Wood Industries.BTS cover Dover, Deal, Sandwich, Canterbury, Faversham, Whitstable, Herne Bay, Medway & Thanet.Your needs for a Tree Surgeon might only involve pruning small trees and shrubs or reducing height and side growth from your hedge or you may simply need a stump removed. It may be more substantial, where the complete dismantle of a large or dangerous tree close to your home is required or a full ground site-clearance job may need to be carried out for new building work to take place. BTS can happily accommodate all of these varied work requirements.In short, we love what we do – we know what we are doing and we understand how to do it all safely!Bruks Tree Carving adds another dimension to Bruks Tree Surgery, as you might prefer to leave the stump in your garden exactly where it is and have Bruks Tree Carving create a little magic out of it!If you would like to see one of Bruk’s African themed Carvings, then you will find one of a traditionally clothed African pregnant lady displayed in the Powell-Cotton Museum & Gardens situated in Quex Park, Birchington.Bruks Tree Surgery can meet all of your requirements using a variety of techniques to adapt to the landscape and we endeavour to climb the trees in question using either ropes & harnesses or hooks & straps, rather than cranes and lifts.We understand the varied Kent environment and the need to often work close to animals as well as in close proximity to homes or office buildings. Bruks Tree Surgeons pride themselves on the vast choice of equipment available to use for each individual job, from large Chainsaws and Stump Grinders to the humble petrol mower and secateurs.We are; most importantly, fully qualified, fully insured and completely reliable. The majority of the BTS crew are from a military background where precision, dependability and courtesy form the backbone of our service. All tree surgeon operations are carried out to the relevant British Standard BS3998: 1989; all work is undertaken to within the current Health and Safety Executive recommendations; AFAG (Arboriculture & Forestry Advisory Group) directives and to Arboricultural Association guidelines and directives currently in use.
