    The cutting down of two small fir trees and stump grinding.

    Posted 08 July

    Having provided a competitive quote, James and his team arrived nice and early and got the job done in around 40 minutes, shredding foliage and branches, grinding the stumps and tidying up after the job was over. I would recommend them to anyone.

    Absolutely Outstanding Service! James and his team from GTF Tree Care were incredibly professional from start to finish. They offered the most reasonable quote and completed the removal of a few small trees in front of my house quickly and efficiently. I’m beyond happy with the results and would recommend them a million times over. Thank you for the fantastic work!
