    Removal of 2 trees

    Posted 15 September

    I contacted David regarding removal of 2 trees and the stumps ground. He responded to my query quickly and we discussed the necessary work and gave me a competitive quote which I went with. They turned up on time, explained exactly what they were going to and carried out the work without issue, leaving the areas very tidy afterwards. I'm very pleased with the work and how it was carried out, and highly recommend this company.

    Fell one conifer to ground level. Lop branches off another

    Posted 11 July

    After a short delay due to staff illness, Dave was very helpful in rescheduling the work. Dave needed to liaise with neighbours regarding part of the work, which he did in a friendly and professional way. He left the work in a tidy state and was courteous throughout. I would certaily consider him for any furure tree work.

    4 trees removed.

    Posted 25 June

    overall a very good service. very professional. I did need all stumps removed however David did say he will try but could guarantee it due to the ground not being level, which I agreed to. the service was very good and can fault them in the slightest.
