Great tree work and great team
It was a pleasure to have the Forbes Tree team undertake substantial tree work in our garden. They completed the work early and below budget, and to a high quality. They dealt sensitively and politely with our neighbours to ensure that everyone was “on side” and the work went smoothly. They were also extremely good about tidying everything up when they had finished. We would not hesitate to use them again.

Overgrown hedge and ivy

My laurel hedge had got completely overgrown and was as tall as the house, and the ivy on the outside of the house was trying to get inside! Patrick and his team sorted everything out so efficiently, with a smile (and in the rain too!). And they cleared up all the waste, chipped it and took it away. I would highly recommend them.

I'm very pleased with the work Forbes Treecare carried out yesterday. They fitted me in sooner than originally agreed owing to a cancellation that had occurred. A large holly was cut back to half its height and nicely shaped, and a plum tree taken out. Numerous overhanging plum branches were cut back to my fence line. The work was done swiftly and they listened to my requests. All in all, very good experience.

These guys did a brilliant job of cutting a large eucalyptus tree down within a very tight space. They were friendly and extremely professional they are also extremely good value for money. I’d highly recommend them to anyone looking for a job well done. The team also cleared up after them and ensured no other plant or trees were damaged in the process. A brilliant job carried out seamlessly.

Forbes Tree Care trimmed our Holm Oak tree for the second time. The first trim some 4 years ago gave the tree a much better shape and this year's trim has continued the improvement. The team undertaking the work were brilliant and I'd thoroughly recommend Forbes for both the quality of their work and for the price/value for money.

Forbes were all excellent. They came punctually each day and were always friendly. They thought there was a bee's nest high up in the tree. (It transpired to be a wasp's.) They talked to the bee expert who said that it was best to cut the tree down in one go and he would deal with the bees. They cut it down very precisely, hitting nothing and making little noise. Our neighbours could not believe how neat it was! They came back to chop it into logs and remove it all through the house. They took over 6 hours with 4 of them working. The mess was incredible and they cleared it all up. They even shook my dust sheets and swept any mess in the house. I could not rate anyone higher.

We would like to thank Sean at Forbes Tree Care, and thanks especially on the day to Alex, Joel, and Harry, who were lovely and great from start to finish of the job. They turned up on time, were super polite, and did a quality job. As all the tree rubble had to go through our turn-of-the-century terrace, they sheeted the route through the house as soon as they arrived. I would happily recommend.
