With over 15 years of experience working across Devon’s varied landscapes, we offer a comprehensive range of tree care solutions for homeowners, landowners, farms and commercial clients – delivering safe, professional results on every job.

Beyond crown work, we offer a full range of tree services including safe tree removal, stump grinding, tree health surveys and ongoing maintenance programmes.

Trusted Tree Services Across North Devon

We’re based in North Devon and it’s the heartland of our work. From Barnstaple and Bideford to Ilfracombe and Braunton, we carry out tree services for residential gardens, rural properties and commercial sites across the region. North Devon’s exposed coastal conditions mean trees here can come under significant stress from wind loading and storm damage – something our team understands and works with regularly.

Working in Exmoor National Park

Exmoor’s ancient woodland and moorland landscape require a careful, considered approach to tree work. Many trees within the National Park are subject to Tree Preservation Orders or sit within conservation areas, meaning proper assessment and – where required – planning consent is essential before any work begins. Our team is experienced in working within these environments and can advise on what permissions may be needed. We treat every job on Exmoor with the care and respect the landscape deserves.

Tree Care on Dartmoor

Dartmoor presents its own unique challenges – remote locations, exposed moorland, and a landscape rich in protected habitats and heritage. Our team is well-practised in working across the moor, providing tree care, tree removal and ongoing maintenance for farms, estates and private properties throughout the area. As with Exmoor, we’re happy to help navigate any TPO or National Park planning requirements as part of our service.

FAQs

Do you offer emergency tree services in North Devon?

Yes – if you have a tree that has fallen, is leaning dangerously, or has been damaged in a storm, our team can respond quickly to make the situation safe. We cover North Devon and the surrounding areas, so get in touch as soon as possible and we’ll do our best to get to you promptly.

How do I know if my tree has a Tree Preservation Order on it?

The easiest way to check is via your local council’s planning portal, where TPOs are registered and publicly searchable. If you’re unsure, we’re happy to help you look into it before any work begins. This is particularly important for properties within or near Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks, where additional restrictions may also apply.

What is the difference between crown reduction and crown thinning?

Crown reduction reduces the overall size of the tree by shortening the branches, making it smaller and more manageable while keeping its natural shape. Crown thinning removes selected branches from within the canopy to improve light and airflow without significantly changing the tree’s size. Our team will advise which is most appropriate for your tree during a free site visit.

What happens to the wood and waste after a tree is removed?

We clear all waste as part of our service. Timber can be cut into logs and left on site if you’d like to keep it, and brash and smaller material is chipped or removed. We always leave your property clean and tidy before we go – it’s something we take pride in on every job.

Are you fully insured for tree work in Devon?

Yes – we are fully insured for all tree work and tree services, giving you complete peace of mind on every job. We are committed to ongoing training to ensure our team stays at the forefront of industry standards.
