10 Overgrown baytree surgery!
Posted 2 days ago
The team were excellent, I had been avoiding dealing with my overgrown baytree for a few years but had I known how straightforward it would be I woukd have sorted it yonks ago. Getting a quote and communication was straightforward, and the team thag cut back the tree were knowledgeable polite and efficient. They brought the branches carefully through my flat and chipped them on the street taking away all the mess. Very happy with their work. Thankyou!Verified reviewerJob location: E1710 Tree Pruning

The two guys arrived bang on time. All the prep was discussed and executed clearly and smoothly and while they worked they were as unobtrusive as two guys with chainsaws can be. I'm no expert but they seemd to work pretty fast too. All clearing up done comprehensively.Verified reviewerJob location: N79.33 3m taken off a large Ah tree and pruning to smoke bush.

The work was booked back in November for February to avoid bird nesting season. The guys were on time and carried out the work successfully and cleared up after themselves. We had to arrange access with neighbours to remove a fence panel so that the debris was not carried through the house. On the whole good communication, registration numbers were provided the day before so that parking permits could be organised - they were friendly and professional. Would definitely recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: N2210 Tree reduction

I used Forbes 3 years ago and they were excellent, so I had no hesitation in using them again. They were equally good this time and did some additional work reducing the height of hedges.Verified reviewerJob location: N110 Tree pruning

We employed Sean & team to prune our weeping silver birch. It hadn’t had professional pruning for a number of years & the canopy had a rogue branch which looked out of place. The tree was also overhanging our neighbours garden. The team dealt with tidying the tree as required providing guidance & expertise. As a terraced house it was necessary to carry tools & prunings through the house. The team took care to protect the floors indoors & cleared clippings efficiently & speedily. A lovely team.Verified reviewerJob location: N810 tree pruning
