Trust Professional Arborists

You should only trust ​and​​​ engage​ an AQF Level 5 when assessing the hazard potential and long term viability of your trees.

We work on complex jobs daily. We approach hazardous jobs with safety as a top priority, protect your property and keep you safe. Have a look at some of the complex jobs we have worked on previously.

Tree Pruning

All trees require routine pruning to keep them healthy, safe and looking good. Tree Needs arborists can carry out all stages of tree pruning including trimming, branch removal, shaping, formative pruning & providing good weight distribution. Pruning and trimming dead, dying and overgrown branches promotes healthy new growth and increases a tree’s life expectancy but should be carried out by a qualified expert who knows what they are doing.

Tree Removal

Tree removal is generally the last choice Tree Needs arborists will make but often it is unavoidable. Trees that are diseased, storm damaged or an obstacle can be dangerous and a risk to the safety of people and their property. Our tree removal process is adaptable as tree removal will always depend on the circumstances of where your tree is located, its condition and many other factors – we will quote the cost of your job for free.

Stump Removal

We offer a stump grinding service to remove obstructive tree stumps from your property - giving you back extra space in your garden and clearing potentially hazardous root systems. Stump removal will bring life back to your garden by restoring valuable nutrients that are being lost to the stump and avoid potential cracks in structural walls and pavement. We will also mulch the stump grindings into nutrient-rich woodchips for your garden (and remove the excess waste).
