‘We had a problem with ailing beech trees on our small estate and tried to source diagnostic assistance from several leading national institutions without success before we were recommended to try Crown. What a difference! They conducted a very detailed survey, produced an exceptional and very professional report, the accuracy of which was amply verified when subsequent surgery was carried out on the trees. All staff a pleasure to deal with, very knowledgeable and professional. We are already discussing their next assignment on other trees. Very highly recommended.’

‘Wayside Bowling Club appointed Crown Tree Consultancy following a number of recommendations from various sources. The Administration team provided timely responses to communications and the appointed Consultant could not have been more helpful. The Consultant carried out a review of all the trees in the area and took notes, measurements and numerous pictures to identify trees and potential problems. The Tree Condion report provided a detailed insight into the condition of the trees and the Consultant’s recommendations for removal of a few trees, removal of deadwood and canopy pruning. In addition, the report recommended timescales for the work to be carried out. This will be particularly helpful for budgeting purposes as there is extensive work to be carried out. Finally, the administration and the technical knowledge provided by Crown Tree Consultancy was excellent and we would recommend them to any future client.’

Once we had agreed on the quote, the tree report was booked in with our estate agent for a few days later. Emma, who undertook the survey, was able to answer any queries we had and was able to put together a full report with everything that we had asked to be looked at. The whole process was very simple and will definitely use their service again.’
