Safety

Safe felling, even in tight spots

Not every tree can drop in one piece. When one stands close to a house, a carport, a power line or a boundary, we take it down in sections, lowering each piece on ropes or working from the platform. That is how the building, the fence and the planting come through it unmarked.

We are fully insured, so you are covered from the first cut to the last load.

  • Climbing technique and platform work
  • Fully insured
  • Right protective equipment on every job

Northmoor Tree Care is run by Daniel Reeve from a yard just outside Ashcombe. We work for homeowners, residents' associations, businesses and the council on felling, stump grinding, crown care and general tree work across the valley.

We are local and we know the ground here, from town gardens in Ashcombe to exposed plots along the water at Hollowmere. Climbing technique, a platform and a stump grinder cover most of it, and the kit grows every year.

Reviews

What customers say

Reviews from homeowners and businesses across Ashcombe, Barrowdale and Hollowmere.

A forty foot ash right over the conservatory. They took it down in sections in a morning and I could not tell afterwards that anyone had been in the garden.
Helen M.Ashcombe
Quoted a fixed price on the Tuesday, felled on the Friday, and the price was the price. No surprises at the end.
Rob T.Barrowdale
Two old oaks at the holiday house we had been worrying about for years. They talked us out of felling one of them and pruned it instead, which I appreciated.
Sarah K.Hollowmere
Storm took a limb off over the driveway on a Sunday night. Someone answered the phone and they were out first thing.
James P.Kettlebridge
Ground out six stumps across the site and left it ready to turf. Tidy work and easy to deal with.

Yes. That is most of what we do. When a tree cannot drop in one piece we take it down in sections, lowering each piece on ropes or working from the platform, so nothing lands where it should not.

Sometimes. Trees under a preservation order, and any tree in a conservation area, need consent before work starts. We check before we quote and we will tell you what applies to your tree.

Fully. Public liability cover is in place on every job and we are happy to send the certificate before we start.

Whatever you prefer. We can chip the brash on site and take it away, leave the chips as mulch, or cut and stack the timber for firewood.

Ashcombe, Barrowdale and Hollowmere, and the villages between them, including Kettlebridge, Ardwick and Fenn Cross. Ask if you are further out, we often are anyway.

Call or send the form. We come out, look at the tree and give you a fixed price before any work begins. The visit and the quote are free.
