Testimonials
Trevor Bower2024-06-24I 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.Gale Solomon2024-06-13Great service with good tidy up, helpful and friendlyRosemary Carroll2024-06-04I 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!Debra Whelband2024-05-23This 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!Lisa Rose2024-05-08Very efficient and professional service,excellent communication and friendly staff. Would highly recommend Epic Tree care.Alistair Law2024-05-01excellent advice delivered by a very nice and pleasant and knowledgeable young girlJulia Wright2024-04-02Epic 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.Lee Halsall2024-03-20Efficient , professional and affordable . They have the right equipment to carry out any felling and trimming leaving hardly a trace that they’ve been .A Webster2024-02-22Big thanks to Epic Tree Care for their exceptional service in removing a tree and stump from my garden. Their professionalism, efficiency, and tidy work were top-notch. Highly recommend their skilled team for anyone in need of tree services!Rhona Watson2023-11-05Carefully 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
A tree surgeon or arborist is a highly-trained professional who performs a variety of tasks related to the care and maintenance of trees. Tree surgeons are most visible in the aftermath of extreme weather events when they can be seen cutting back or removing damaged trees on roadways. The job of the tree surgeon involves tree pruning, tree planting, tree relocating and tree removal as well as treating tree diseases and infestations. They also consult in cases where trees and developers come into conflict or when someone desires to work on a tree protected by a Tree Protection Order (TPO), or a tree located in a conservation area.
You may, repeat may, have the right to remove one of the trees on your property yourself, but it is not advisable unless you have experience felling trees. A mature tree can weigh 3 or 4 tonnes which can do considerable damage to your home, not to mention people, should you lose control of the removal process. But there is also the possibility you may not have the right to remove one of your trees without permission. If there is a Tree Protection Order active for the tree or the tree is in a Conservation area you will need to obtain permission from your local authority before removing it.
All waste from a jobsite is disposed of in full compliance with the government’s safe disposal regulations. But not all the byproducts of work are disposed of. Branches, trunks and stumps may be cut into logs for firewood or put through our chipper and transformed into chips that can be used as a landscaping element. If you would like to keep any logs or chips just let us know beforehand and we will be happy to turn them over to you.
There are a variety of reasons why trees need to be pruned. For one, pruning may enhance the structure and strength of the tree. Pruning can also remove any dangerous or dead branches. Pruning is also done to make sure branches do not come in contact with power lines and to reduce the amount of shade a tree casts on a property. And pruning is often called for to make sure there is a safe distance between a tree and a house or business.
The cost depends on a number of factors including how many trees are involved, the size of the trees, whether they are easy or difficult to access, the type of work that needs to be done and how many tree surgeons are required to perform the work properly. We will be happy to provide you with a no-obligation quotation. Simply get in touch with Epic Tree Care and let us know what type of work you need to be done on your tree or trees.
