James was responsive to our request for a quote, for felling a large ash tree we suspected had died. He replied to messages quickly, turned up when he said he would, and was correct that our tree had in fact died. James was professional the whole time and we would have no hesitation in hiring and recommending him to others in the future.

Colchester tree surgeon FAQs
How can I check if a tree in my Colchester garden has a Tree Preservation Order (TPO)?
Colchester City Council provides an interactive map that allows residents to search for TPOs and conservation areas. Our tree surgeons in Colchester are experienced in using these tools to identify protected status in areas like Lexden, Shrub End, and Wivenhoe, ensuring that all necessary applications are submitted to the council before work begins.
Do local arborists specialise in maintaining native Essex species like English Oak and Hornbeam?
Yes, our tree surgeons in Colchester have extensive knowledge of the native species found across Essex. Whether you have a mature English Oak requiring crown thinning or a Hornbeam hedge in need of professional shaping, our experts provide tailored care that respects the biological needs and growth patterns of local flora.
What are the rules for tree surgery skips and equipment on Colchester public highways?
If your tree work requires a skip or heavy machinery to be placed on a public road or pavement, a permit from Essex County Council is typically required. Your local tree surgeon can usually manage this process for you, ensuring that skip permits are secured and that appropriate safety lighting and markings are in place to comply with Essex Highways regulations.

We hired Cani Building Services to replace the front stairs and pathway of our Victorian home with granite pavers in the spring of 2025. When evaluating the builders it was important to us that we found somebody who was professional, reliable, and detail-oriented. Durim offered a competitive quote and promptly started work. ?He completed our job to a high level of quality within a week’s time, and we are very pleased with the outcome.

AVOID AT ALL COST and it is the right company. Don’t pay him or his partner Nick Moules any money. Nick will probably visit your home within a couple of hours of posting the job (making you feel confident that your job will be finished as quickly as you need it to be) send you links to the materials to be purchased, ask for deposit and then stop all forms of communication. They will quote +/- £20 to the other tradesmen. Should be banned on this site.
