Our Commercial Forestry Services in North East Scotland
In addition to individual services such as thinning and felling, we offer full woodland and forestry management services for larger tracts of land owned by commercial or public sector organisations in this part of Scotland. If you are looking for a team that possesses the knowledge and expertise to provide large-scale commercial woodland management services, Epic Tree Care is an excellent choice. We have been providing such services across North East Scotland for many years and we look forward to doing so for many more to come. As qualified tree surgeons, we can perform all types of commercial arboricultural procedures with ease and we can also care for your hedges and mature shrubbery if desired.
Our Forestry Services for Storm Damaged Trees
High winds and violent storms cause a lot of damage to trees in Scotland every year and, after every storm, we help companies and individuals to deal with the aftermath. If you are faced with the task of clearing or caring for damaged trees on your land, feel free to call at any time. It will be our pleasure to provide you with the services you need and to answer any questions you may have about what we do.
If you should require emergency assistance following a storm, please don’t feel that you have to wait before getting in touch with us. You are more than welcome to call or message us at any time of night or day and, whatever your needs may be, we will do our best to meet them as quickly as possible. We pride ourselves on providing a highly responsive service to all of our private and public sector clients.
Why Our Forestry Services Are Unique
Almost all commercial tree surgeons will be happy to offer you a similar range of forestry services to ours, including tree felling and removal, woodland thinning and pruning. So what is it that makes our services unique?
- Our Holistic Approach – Whichever of our services you take advantage of, you will benefit from our holistic approach, which ensures we never miss any important details. Rather than dealing with each problem in isolation, we look at the whole picture, enabling us to find solutions that other professionals may overlook.
- Integrity – We never take shortcuts as far as safety is concerned and we never recommend arboricultural procedures if they are not beneficial to our clients. Our primary objective is always your satisfaction and we prioritise this over profitability and all other business concerns.
- Commitment to Excellence – We aim to excel on every job we undertake. If you are tired of dealing with companies that overpromise and under-deliver, you are in for a very pleasant surprise if you decide to avail yourself of our forestry services in this part of Scotland.
For all of these reasons and more besides, we are the company that many organisations call whenever they need forestry services in North East Scotland they can rely on completely.
We operate with £10 million Public Liability Insurance and £10 million Employers Liability Insurance
