More Information
Safe and Methodical Tree Removal
Tree removal is not a job to rush. We assess each tree carefully before starting, looking at its size, condition, the space available and what is around it. Where there is room to fell the tree in one piece, we do that. Where buildings, fences or other trees are close by, we work in sections and use ropes to lower the timber safely. We bring the equipment needed for the job and make sure the site is safe throughout. When the tree is down and cleared, we leave the area tidy and ready for the next stage.
Routine Tree Work and Pruning
Not every tree needs to come down. Many trees just need regular pruning to stay safe, healthy and the right size for their location. We carry out crown reduction, branch removal, deadwood clearance and general shaping for trees of all sizes. Regular work keeps trees manageable, reduces the risk of damage in storms, and often extends the life of a tree significantly. This service is popular with homeowners across the Peterhead area who want to keep mature trees on their property without the worry.
Stump Removal and Site Clearance
After a tree is felled, the stump can be a nuisance. It takes up space, can become a trip hazard and will eventually attract pests and fungi as it decays. We can grind stumps down below ground level as part of the removal job, leaving a clean area that can be grassed over, paved or planted. For larger clearance projects involving multiple trees, we manage the whole operation and dispose of all timber and green waste from site.
ABOUT US
We were called to a property near Crimond a few years back where a large sycamore had been damaged in a winter storm, leaving a heavy limb hanging over the owner's garage roof. The situation needed dealing with quickly and safely. We removed the hanging limb first, then worked through the rest of the tree in sections, leaving the garage undamaged and the garden clear. The owner had been worrying about it for days before calling us. One morning's work and it was sorted.
