Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if a tree is dangerous or diseased?

If it's leaning, cracking, dropping branches or looking unhealthy, it could be a risk. We can check it out and let you know what needs to be done.

When’s the best time to cut or prune trees?

Usually late winter or early spring, but it depends on the tree. If there's an issue or it's in the way, we can handle it whenever it's needed.

Do I need permission to take down a tree?

Sometimes. If it's protected or near public land, the council might need to approve it. We’ll help you find out before we start.

Do you take away all the mess?

Yes, we clear everything unless you want to keep some logs or chippings. We always leave the place neat and tidy.

Are you fully insured and qualified?

Yes. We're fully certified, insured and experienced. You're covered from start to finish.

Do you work with businesses too?

We do. Homes, landlords, schools, builders — we work with anyone who needs safe, reliable tree services.

Can you cut a tree down in size without removing it?

Yes. We can reduce the height or reshape it to make it safer and easier to manage without taking the whole tree out.

Is it safe to remove ash trees with dieback?

Yes, and it's important. Ash dieback makes trees unstable. We’re certified to remove them safely at any time of year.
