We appointed Forbes Treecare to reduce an oak, about 15m tall, in our garden. I was pleased with the clarity of the information provided in advance of the works as well as with the 4 young gentlemen who carried out the task professionally and efficiently.

I required a dead plum tree taken down and chopped for firewood together with a holly and pyracantha hedge reduced by 1 metre. Alfie Bines Gardens recommended Forbes Treecare. I called Sean and a visit to look at work and provide quote was arranged within 24 hours. The quote was received within a couple of days, accepted and the date was agreed. The team of two arrived as arranged at 8.30am and worked solidly without a break until completion at 3pm. All work was efficiently completed and the waste was removed. Helpfully the firewood was carried up the lawn and stacked as requested. In summary, a highly skilled job carried out professionally.

This was a great tree service team. So pleased. They came on time, were profession, thoughtful and considerate. They cleaned up the garden, leaves which fell into the neighbour's garden, the house, the front garden and the street around the chipper. Great team manager and members of the team. Fantastic!

The two experts immediately understood our exact requirements and carried out the work in record time, (They declined the offer of a tea break until after the work was completed!) The site was left properly tidy. The behaviour and attitude of the experts was faultless.

Large apple tree crown reduction

We had inherited a large apple tree in our garden and were unsure as to how much of it should be pruned in order to keep the tree healthy. We’d already had a quote from another firm but weren’t impressed. Sean came and gave us great advice which worked best for us and the long term health of the tree - and the job was very competitively priced too. The work was completed within a few weeks & we’re extremely happy with the results. We would highly recommend Forbes Treecare & will be back to use their services in future.

Poplar Tree Felling

Having appointed Forbes Treecare to fell two very large (15m and 20m) poplar trees, we found the whole team to be very efficient and a pleasure to work with. We got the impression that the whole team enjoyed their work as well as working together. They were very knowledgeable and professional. They protected the inside of the house so as to carry through all the waste and tidied up all the debris from the tree felling. Their cost was very competitive too. I would strongly recommend them!
