This was the second time we have used Nigel to undertake work in my father's garden. On this occasion Nigel felled a giant eucalyptus tree that had overgrown its spot close to the house. He executed the work quickly, professionally and left no mess. He is always pleasant and courteous and is sensitive to the needs of the situation. I wouldn't hesitate to employ Nigel's services for any future garden need. Highly recommended.

Carringtons have felled a row of conifers for me. Service was quick and efficient and the workers very nice to deal with. They came when they said they would, and cleaned up after themselves. Very pleased with their work, would definitely recommend them. Price was competitive also.

Nigel and his crew demonstrate what I like in service providers. He gives confidence that he knows what he is doing so I can rely on his advice. They turn up when they say they will come and leave the site/garden tidy and clear having completed the job . Recommended.

Carringtons Tree Surgery, run by Nigel, was recommended to us. We found Nigel reliable, trustworthy, flexible and he accurately quotes. His first job on our new property was undertaken in May 2016 when we needed 3 massive conifers to be removed plus to chip lots of hedge debris from a previous fencing job. Nigel visited the site to review the job, if asked he would provide advise, and quote. Nigel was meticulous in taking notes, to ensure he followed what was agreed too. Nigel and his team undertook a professional and tidy job. His team were all a pleasure to have on site - polite, industrious and client focused. We needed more work done in Jan 2017 so naturally Nigel was our first choice. He is popular (has a loyal customer base) but will manage expectations about waiting times and will confirm exact date 7-10 days before. Nigel turns up on time, is considerate to neighbours/pedestrians and our invoices matched the price quoted. I would whole heartedly recommend Nigel and would trust him with any tree/heavy garden cutback work.

Nigel and his team carried out pruning work on 3 very large oak trees at our local community hall. e has also pruned a large silver birch in my own garden. All the work was carried out to a very high standard and on completion the sites were left clean and tidy. I would not hesitate to recommend Carringtons for any tree work you require.

Over the last few years Carrington's have carried out bi-annual maintenance to an ash tree in our front garden, to control height and spread in a fairly small area, with limited access. They have always completed the work when they promised, shaped the tree well, not caused any damage (given the space available), cleared up efficiently, and been ready to give advice when asked for. We are very happy with the work they do.

I am so pleased with this trader. Very polite and courteous and the estimate was very reasonable. The men arrived early and started work in my garden which was quite confined, they worked swiftly and quietly and had all the correct safety equipment. I was really impressed by the care they took in the trimming and pruning and after they left you would not have known they had been there other the the great job they had done in my garden. Would not hesitate to use them again.

Arrived early for initial inspection assessment. Difficult due to bad weather/light. Scope of work defined and cost agreed. No extra charges. Arrived promptly, carried out work efficiently. Some damage to dense under planting inevitable. Left site tidy, including neighbours.

Highly recommend Nigel and his team. He turned up exactly when he said he would and clearly "knew his stuff". His work, has made such a difference to our garden which was very dark due to the amount of trees in it. We did not want to lose the trees but his expertise has allowed the light into our garden whilst retaining the trees, so we are very happy. Everywhere was left so neat and tidy with no mess! Nigel has also tidied up a bay tree, some shrubs and two conifers at the front of the house - the drive looks so much bigger and so tidy! We have already booked Nigel for later in the year to reduce three further trees that he advised would be the better time of year to do so. I have no hesitation in recommending him. Thank you to Nigel and his team.

Had Nigel Carrington and his team to cut off approx 4 feet off our conifers and laurels. Turned up on the time he stated, which in my book goes a long way. A really professional job done and was very pleased, would not hesitate to recommend him.

Had Nigel and his team remove a 50ft conifer from the corner of our garden. He turned up exactly on time with all the correct equipment, removed the tree in about 2 hours and tidied so well you wouldn't have known they had been in. The price was very reasonable as well. With so many cowboys in this line of work I was so pleased Nigel Carrington was recommended to me.
