Work done, site left tidy

NPTC-qualified team, £10m insured. All waste chipped on site or removed — you keep the logs or woodchip if you want them.

What we do

Every kind of tree work, one qualified team.

Tree removal & felling

Complete removals — from a single garden tree to large, leaning or dangerous trees close to buildings. Sectional dismantling, rigging and crane-assist where access is tight. More on tree removal →

Pruning & crown work

Crown reduction, thinning, lifting and pollarding — controlled cuts that keep the tree healthy, safe and natural-looking, never hacked about. More on pruning & crown reduction →

The trees others turn down

Oversized leylandii rows, storm-damaged limbs over conservatories, dead trees on clay banks — as a working forestry firm, big trees are routine for us — with the machinery and insurance to do it properly.

Conservation areas & TPOs

If your tree has a preservation order or sits in a conservation area, we'll check the tree's status with the council and make sure the right consents are in place before any work starts.

Questions

Tree surgeon questions, answered straight.

Are you qualified and insured?

Yes — NPTC-qualified teams, City & Guilds Level 3 for trees over 760mm diameter, and £10m public liability insurance. Documentation comes with every quote.

How fast can I get a quote?

We reply within 4 working hours on weekdays. Send photos with the form and we can often price the job straight away; bigger jobs get a free site survey.

Which parts of North London do you cover?

All of it — Barnet, Enfield, Haringey, Islington, Camden and the Hertfordshire fringe including Potters Bar. If you're near an N postcode, you're covered.

Can you handle very large or dangerous trees?

That's our speciality. We're a forestry company as well as tree surgeons — crane-assist, MEWPs and heavy kit mean big, leaning or dangerous trees are routine work, and dangerous trees get a same-week response.

My tree is protected (TPO / conservation area) — can you still work on it?

Usually yes, with the council's consent. We check the tree's status with the council and make sure the right consents are in place before any work is booked.
