Native trees in the UK
When thinking of planting a tree in your garden we would almost always recommend using a native species. The native species are great at helping insects and nature survive and some of our favourite examples are below: Crab Apple (Malus sylvestris), a pretty tree that provides all year round interest as it barely without either […]
Keeping warm in the Dedham Vale
Well it’s very cold outside but Shelby loves coming to work so we’ve dressed her up in a tree themed dog coat. Added bonus is that she looks extra cute in it! Like most people we think the snow looks beautiful but we are so busy with work that we are keeping our fingers crossed […]

Happy 2019
Happy New Year to all our customers. We had our customary two-week break over Christmas and everyone was back to work fully refreshed last week.

Dedham Church

The tree albeit only 50 years old had grown to well over 35 metres and was undermining the foundations of the vicarage. Unfortunately it had to be removed. Many a tourist stopped to watch the […]

Crane Job
Today we have a large task. These sorts of jobs don’t come up often but when they do they are great fun. A large dead cedar had to be dismantled within one day. Surrounded by power lines and other obstacles we opted to use a 40-tonne crane. The job went incredibly smoothly and the tree […]
