I needed to thin an overcrowded small copse at the bottom of my garden. I am so glad I chose Epic Tree Care, as right from the beginning with the visit from Elaine to advise what the best solution would be, to the work being carried out by Jason and his team everything was excellent. The friendly men on site worked professionally and efficiently and with care to avoid any unnecessary damage to remaining trees and fences. They left the site clean and tidy, overall a pleasant experience. I would strongly recommend this company.

I recently bought a new home that had very tall, very unkempt hedges and a few rotten and self-seeded trees. Clive and Elaine's team were amazing from start to finish. Elaine came out to assess the job first and I told her my budget. She worked with it to get the maximum amount of work from it, and gave a timescale for the job to be completed by. The team appeared on time at the job and were polite, happy and very informative. They went over the job list to make sure I was happy. Then they got to work. Everything was done to an incredibly high standard. The equipment itself was very impressive. The professionalism of the team was really lovely to see. They even paused at regular intervals to tidy up around them! After they were finished, apart from a couple of pieces of twig that the wind caught, there was no evidence of them having been there! Three trees, one huge laurel type hedge cut back and a whopper of an evergreen hedge completely removed, roots and all, and all done in one day... An absolutely brilliant team. I won't need you again probably, but if I did I wouldn't hesitate to call, and I'll happily recommend you all day long. A trusted and reliable team and a truly epic service, thank you guys!

This company is to be commended! They have all the necessary equipment to make the project as seamless as possible, not to mention the safety gear provided to the staff. Jason was calm, polite and very approachable. Nothing was a problem. They removed a mature Sycamore in poor condition to a habitat stump for the birds and a Crown raise and sympathetic thin of mature Elm tree, which now looks amazing. I enquired about keeping the chippings from this tree and Jason advised to keep it if I had a place to spread it as hard wood timber makes great mulch. Be aware you need to leave it for 12 months if you want to used it around flowers/plants etc. They worked seamlessly and left the place immaculate. Considering the amount of shrubbery this was no mean feat. The costing was very reasonable and to my mind money well spent. Your business model is great!

Epic Tree Care have pollarded our big sycamore. They have done an excellent job, very quick and so careful of the surroundings that nothing in the garden was damaged despite the tree being surrounded by borders, sheds and garages. Thank you, guys and thank you, Elaine for the excellent customer service, it has been a good experience from the beginning to the end.

Carefully assessed the work to be done and promptly quoted. Agreed dates for the work to be done and came when they said. Carried out the work exactly as agreed. Team was organised and hard working. Tidied up well once the work was completed. I was particularly impressed with the stump removal and the care taken to make sure I was happy with the finished shape of the trimmed trees. Cost seemed high until I saw how many workers were in the team, what work was actually involved, how much wood had to be disposed of and the amount of equipment involved. I was completely satisfied with the work done and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

We operate with £5 million Public Liability Insurance and £10 million Employers Liability Insurance.

Frequently Asked Questions

A tree surgeon (also known as an arborist) is a highly trained professional involved in the management and care of trees. They have specialised training in the fields of tree pruning, tree removal and stump removal as well as in the treatment of various diseases and infestations that affect trees. In addition, they conduct tree risk assessments and consult in cases of protected trees or trees that exist in conservation zones. Following extreme weather events you will often see tree surgeons involved in the safe removal of damaged trees along roadways and on residential and commercial properties.

The UK has some of the world’s most restrictive laws governing the treatment of trees. As such, if you work on a tree yourself you may wind up being sanctioned by a very upset local authority or even the UK Forestry Commission. But beyond invoking the wrath of regulatory agencies, pruning and felling trees is dangerous work. Many people have been seriously hurt attempting to fell trees on their own, and many others have wound up causing damage to their own or other people’s property because of inadequate training.

It depends. But given the number and complexity of tree care regulations in the UK it is always a safe bet to assume you will need permission from some governing body in order to prune, move or fell a tree, even if it is on your own property. If you want to alter a tree for whatever reason the smart thing to do is to call Epic Tree Care and allow one of our highly trained arborists to handle it. That way you can be certain all relevant laws will be adhered to and there will be no harm to people or property.

No matter what type of work we are performing on your trees our team members will remove all waste from your property in accordance with the government’s safe disposal laws and regulations. Nothing is wasted in that all branches are either turned into logs or we put them through our chipping machine and create wood chips to use as a landscaping element. If you wish to keep any logs created from trees pruned or felled on your property simply let us know ahead of time and we will be happy to turn them over to you.

In theory, yes. However, some people are more suited to being tree surgeons than others. For example: a tree surgeon needs to be in excellent physical shape because they are going to spend a good portion of their working life climbing trees and working with chainsaws while high above the ground. And speaking of high above the ground… They also need to have no fear of heights. They must also love the outdoors and have the ability to remain calm under pressure.
