When you look out at your garden, what do you see?
Maybe it used to be a calm, relaxing space — but now it’s looking overgrown, gloomy, or just too much to manage. You’re not alone. Gardens can quickly get out of hand, especially when trees and hedges start taking over.
Once that happens, sorting things out safely and properly isn’t a weekend DIY job. That’s where we come in.

Tree Surgery Is About More Than Cutting Trees Down
Tree surgery isn’t about hacking trees apart — it’s about managing them properly.
While felling is sometimes necessary, we always look for the most balanced, sustainable solution. In many cases, we can reshape or reduce a tree rather than remove it. That improves safety and appearance while keeping your garden green and healthy.
If you’ve got a stubborn stump getting in the way, we’ll recommend the best method for removing or grinding it based on its size, location, and what you plan to do with the space afterwards.
We also handle hedge cutting, garden clearances, and those tricky, awkward jobs that need specialist tools and proper training.
What Makes a Good Tree Surgeon?
Tree work is highly specialised — and not something just anyone with a chainsaw can do. A professional tree surgeon should have:
✅ Proper qualifications and training (such as City & Guilds/NPTC)
✅ Experience working safely at height and around buildings or power lines
✅ Knowledge of tree species, health, and growth patterns
✅ Full insurance cover for peace of mind
✅ Modern, well-maintained equipment
✅ A reputation for reliable, tidy, and professional work
At Woodfelder Tree Care, we tick every box. Our team is City & Guilds qualified, fully insured, and CHAS Advanced accredited, which means our health and safety standards meet national commercial compliance.
We’re known for being organised, efficient, and polite — and we always leave sites clean and tidy.
Why Not Just Do It Yourself?
Because it’s dangerous — and can cost far more if it goes wrong.
Tree work involves heavy equipment, working at height, and a lot of moving parts. Without the right training and tools, you risk serious injury or property damage.
Before we start any job, we carry out a detailed risk assessment, considering:
The tree’s condition (including signs of decay or disease)
Surrounding buildings, people, or power lines
Weather and ground conditions
Access for equipment and vehicles
Any Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or conservation restrictions
Safe removal and site clean-up procedures
If something goes wrong with DIY tree work — a branch hits a roof, a fence collapses, or someone gets hurt — the cost of repairs or insurance claims can quickly outweigh the price of hiring professionals in the first place.
