Our Tree Service Expertise
Your Local Tree Surgeons in Preston
We are professional tree surgeons based in Preston, specialising in tree removal, pruning, and stump removal. Alex founded his tree surgery business over 15 years ago before joining our team to provide expert tree services and pest control. With over 30 years of combined experience, we’ve built a strong reputation for quality workmanship, exceptional customer care, and strict safety standards. We like to think we offer the personalised customer care of a small business, with the knowledge, skills, and expertise to also specialise in bigger jobs.
We love our role in supporting communities and businesses to resolve their tree problems, from overgrown vegetation to diseased or fallen trees. We have looked after all different types of trees in all their shapes and sizes for councils, commercial, and residential clients. Whilst much of our work is in and around Preston, we do cover Lancashire and will travel to other areas within a 50-mile radius of Preston.
Alex is a passionate tree surgeon, and unlike most of our competitors—where the owner or manager might quote for the job but not actually be present on the day—Alex will always perform or closely oversee every job we undertake, ensuring it is completed to a high standard.

What Type of Tree Service Do you Need?
We can help with a range of tree services from hedging, excess vegetation, small and large scale tree removal. So, if you have overhanging branches, overgrown hedges or shrubs that are providing access for squirrels and rats to your premises, we can trim these back to help with the rodent and squirrel problems . You may not have a rodent problem, but we can still help with your problem trees, hedges or shrubs. We ensure your trees and greenery remain healthy and a well sized focus of your outdoor space. We also do emergency callouts for tree work if you need urgent help, as a result of a damaged tree. For every tree we end up removing, we plant a tree with Ecologi in the UK minimising our environmental impact.
Tree Felling & Removal
We remove and cut down hazardous trees
Trees can sometimes create structural problems to a building, they become diseased or damaged and need to be removed. We remove trees in any setting, be it in school playing fields, industrial sites or a residential garden. Whether it be in a confined or large and open space, we guarantee removal is done safely without causing damage to property or surrounding landscape.
Stump Grinding & Removal
We remove tree stumps
Once a tree has been felled, the stump then needs removing. Unwanted tree stumps can be unsightly and dangerous tripping hazards. They can also attract unwanted pests. We have the expertise and equipment to grind any stump down to below ground level, even when there is limited access. We can remove one stump to several in an entire grove.
Hedge & Shrub Service
We trim both deciduous and evergreen hedges and shrubs
Our skilled tree surgeons will trim the tops and sides of your hedges and shrubs into a smart shape, so they look their best. Cutting back dying or infected foliage and branches will improve the overall health of your shrubs and hedges.
Tree Pruning & Reduction
We cut back damaged, overgrown or diseased trees
Crown thinning or simply put tidying, thinning, weight/bulk reduction, and shaping of overgrown or unhealthy trees. Removal of any dead or hazardous limbs or branches. Trimming back is done to reduce the overall size of a tree when it has outgrown the space it lives in. Our expert tree surgeons ensure the overall health and future growth of the tree is taken into consideration when carrying out this work.
Site Clearance
Maintenance of overgrown areas
Care and maintenance of a plot of land or residential garden can often be left unmanaged over a period of time. Before you know it shrubs, trees and hedges can become overgrown. Rodents may be lurking about and causing even more destruction and have ventured into your house or premises. Our team of tree surgeons work to clear your site of unwanted vegetation. They can carry out any stump grinding to make sure you are left with a clear site to work with.
