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.

What can a tree surgeon help with?

Tree surgeons are often hired when a tree grows out of control and begins to threaten the structural stability of a property. Old trees pose the risk of falling onto your home, whilst hidden tree roots can damage foundations and pipework.

As well as this, arborists offer maintenance services that keep your trees and hedges looking neat and tidy, year-round.

The main jobs tree surgeons carry out include:

  • Tree survey and report
  • Tree care, tree treatment and tree maintenance
  • Assessing hazards posed by trees
  • Tree stump grinding, crown reductions, tree pruning, tree pollarding, tree lopping, tree coppicing, and hedge removal
  • Planting trees
  • Tree removal and clearance

Whether you need a tree stump removed or are looking for a crown reduction specialist, tree surgeons are skilled at a range of tree care, tree surgery and tree removal services.

What should I consider when hiring a tree surgeon?

Before you hire, you should do your research to ensure that your arborists:

  1. Are an experienced company with a strong history of successful projects
  2. Have all the necessary licenses, insurance and warranties needed to protect you and their workers
  3. Have a good range of positive reviews from previous customers vouching for their reliability
  4. Are offering the tree surgery services you need, and are available to carry out the work in the timeframe you need it to be completed by
  5. Are quoting a price and payment option that you are happy with, having compared the quote with other local tree surgeons.

Local tradespeople are more likely to respond quickly, as they’ll be right around the corner. Hire a tree surgeon today to help you maintain or remove the trees in your garden.

How much do tree surgeons cost to hire?

The cost of hiring a tree surgeon varies depending on the size of the tree and the nature of the job:

  • Small Trees (below 25 ft): £150 – £350, typically completed within 4 hours.
  • Medium Trees (25 ft – 50 ft): £200 – £750, usually requiring one full day.
  • Large Trees (50 ft – 75 ft): £650 – £1200, taking 1-2 days.
  • Extra Large Trees (over 75 ft): £1000 – £2500, spanning 2-5 days.

Other tree surgeon FAQs

What is the difference between a tree surgeon and an arborist?

A tree surgeon focuses on the physical maintenance and safe removal of trees, while an arborist also encompasses the study and management of tree health, diseases, and overall care.

Are you allowed to cut trees down in your garden?

Generally, you can cut down trees in your garden unless they are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or you live in a conservation area.

How do I find out if a tree surgeon is qualified?

Check for qualifications such as certifications from recognized bodies like the Arboricultural Association or similar credentials that ensure they are trained and knowledgeable.

Fired him for appalling work, no-shows and delays; see his other bad reviews. He's a middle man; does not do any work; got others to do it like a plumber, then a tiler the next day; slow work made worse when someone messed up or did not show up. Ali only shows to deliver materials or check work. Quick to reply when wanting the job. Slow/no response once job starts thinking you wont cancel. Materials I paid not returned; take every receipt and check you keep/use every item as he will even for wipes/tape

I posted the job with my budget when Shane arrived (several hours later than he initially specified) his quote was significantly higher than my budget so the work never took place. He later revised the quote so I booked him for the job. He never showed up on the revised date, rescheduled and never showed up again and didn't return my messages. A complete waste of my time.
