Tree work in city gardens

In a city, trees are often squeezed between houses, walls, garages and power lines. We plan every job so branches and timber are lowered under control, with nothing dropped onto roofs, greenhouses or your neighbour's garden. We can carry all the waste out through a house or passageway if there's no side access, and protect floors on the way.

Many of Manchester's street trees belong to the council, and some garden trees are protected. We'll check with Manchester City Council before any work where needed.

FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS

[    F.A.Q    ]
Can you prune the street tree outside my house?
Not without permission. Street trees usually belong to the council, so you'll need to contact Manchester City Council. We can prune any branches overhanging your property if the council allows it.
Can you take a tree out of a back garden with no side access?
Yes. We dismantle it in sections and carry it out by hand.
Do I need to be home for the quote?
As long as we have clear access to the garden, we can often provide an estimate without you being present.
Is any job too small?
No, we handle everything from minor branch pruning and hedge tidying to full-scale tree removals.
Do I need permission to cut down or prune a tree?
Sometimes. If a tree has a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or is in a conservation area, you need your local council's consent before most work. We check this before starting and can advise you on the application.
Which areas do you cover?
We're based in the borough of Bury and cover Greater Manchester and Lancashire, including Bury, Ramsbottom, Rochdale, Bolton, Manchester, Rossendale and Darwen.
Do you take the waste away?
Yes. All branches, logs and green waste are removed and the area is cleaned up, unless you'd like to keep the logs or woodchip.
