Retain and manage
Pruning can address dead branches, clearance, excessive spread or a canopy that has outgrown the available space without removing the whole tree.

Read service guideStart with the outcome
The best specification solves the problem without unnecessary work
A request such as “make the tree smaller” can mean several different things. It may be about light, roof clearance, a damaged branch, a blocked drive or concern after high winds. Explaining the problem makes it easier to recommend an appropriate scope and produce a quotation that can be compared fairly.
Remove safely
When a tree cannot reasonably be retained, the method should account for buildings, boundaries, roads, garden features and the available drop zone.
Read the service guideFinish the ground
Stump grinding can remove the main obstruction below the agreed level so the area can be prepared for turf, planting, gravel or landscaping.
Read the service guideRegain usable space
Garden clearance needs a defined finish, realistic waste allowance and checks for access, hidden material and active wildlife.

Plan the right work before anything is cut
Good tree work starts with the reason for the job: safety, clearance, light, long-term management or removal. The quotation should define the outcome, access, waste handling and any permissions so everyone understands what is included.
A written scope based on the tree, site and access
Clear options for timber, woodchip and green waste
Protected-tree and conservation-area checks considered early
Practical planning around buildings, boundaries and neighbours

Before requesting a date
Access, protection and neighbours can change the plan
Narrow gates, steps, slopes, conservatories and shared driveways affect equipment and waste handling. Trees close to roads or overhead lines may require additional controls. Photographs of the route from the road to the work area are often as useful as a close photograph of the tree itself.
Before pruning or removal, establish whether the tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order or stands in a conservation area. The property owner remains responsible for ensuring that the correct permission or notice is in place. Boundary trees and work affecting a neighbour should also be discussed before the job starts.

Tree work questions from Shrewsbury customers
How much does tree work cost in Shrewsbury?
The price depends on the tree or hedge size, access, proximity to buildings and roads, the equipment required, and whether timber and green waste are removed. Photos are useful for an initial assessment, but larger or restricted-access work normally needs a site visit before a firm quotation.
Do I need permission before tree work starts?
Possibly. A Tree Preservation Order can restrict pruning and removal, and work to many trees in a conservation area requires prior notice to the local planning authority. These checks should be completed before a date is agreed.
What information should I include with an enquiry?
Include the property area or postcode, the type and approximate size of the tree, hedge or stump, what outcome you want, any access limitations, and clear photos from several angles. Mention roads, neighbouring property, sheds, walls or overhead cables nearby.
Can branches, logs and woodchip be removed?
Waste handling can be included in the quotation. Some customers prefer to keep suitable logs or woodchip, while others want the site cleared. Confirm the preferred option before work begins so labour and disposal are priced clearly.
Can you quote for domestic and commercial sites?
Enquiries are welcome for gardens, rental properties, managed grounds, farms, estates and commercial sites. Larger sites may require a more detailed visit so access, work zones and waste volumes can be assessed properly.
