Why us?

Because we are open minded, innovative and good at what we do. We recognise that Arboriculture cannot function in isolation from other professions and disciplines; our people have wide ranging skills, qualifications and experience.

Beyond Arboriculture we have people with degrees in Ecology, and Building Studies. We currently have two Graduates (1 MSc & 1 BSc) and two more studying for degrees. We feel that it is important to our clients that our people have qualifications, the level of which is immediately recognisable and understood.

We are aware that Arboriculture is a constantly evolving science and that, to best serve our clients, we must keep abreast of developments. Our people are encouraged to attend seminars and conferences and to pursue a path of continuing professional development.

We like trees; we recognise trees as amazing, wonderful and irreplaceable, but we do not go out and hug them!

We realise that trees are, for the most part, a renewable resource. We feel that, within society as it is now, far too much attention is paid to retaining often unsuitable trees and nowhere near enough importance is given to management felling and new planting. We are deeply concerned that our grandchildren are being short changed so that local politicians can appease the 'no change' lobby and claim 'green' credentials they do not deserve.

We will tell you how it is - we will not milk a 'no hope' situation and we will not recommend tree work that you do not need.

We will not visit your site without charging you, because the truth is not cheap.
