Straight about what a tree needs

Plenty of trees that people ask us to fell do not need felling, and we will say so. Where one does have to come down, it comes down in sections, under control, and the site is left clean enough that you would not know we had been.

Qualified, and insured for the job

Our climbers hold NPTC certificates through City & Guilds, the platform operator is IPAF qualified, and the company carries public liability insurance. Ask to see any of it before work starts — anyone who hesitates at that question is the wrong outfit.

Local, not national

We are twenty minutes from most of Edinburgh and know the access problems that come with it: the closes, the shared drives, the walled gardens, the trees behind three other gardens. That is why the kit is tracked and narrow rather than big.
