SG Services were 100% professional. Extremely knowledgable and there were no problems that they couldn't deal with. I would have no hesitation in using them every time.
Colin Chalmers
Absolutely excellent all round service from Stephen & his team at SG Tree Services, when in September 2021, they removed 2 mature trees from our driveway, including grinding the stumps away completely.
Very friendly, knowledgeable, professional, reasonably priced & thorough service.
Extremely highly recommended.

Very prompt attention, Stephen was round to assess the work the same day I initially enquired. Needed 6 overgrown trees/shrubs pruned and 1 tree stump removed. Quote received that night, work carried out within 2 days, very tidy job, all cuttings removed. Would definitely recommend! More...

We called on SG services and Stephen came out within a couple of days. We found him to be very knowledgeable and answered a few things to us regarding our situation. We would defiantly use SG Services again and would pass their company on to other people. More...

Such friendly and efficient people! Stephen and Robert came to remove 4 trees from our garden, from start to finish they were absolutely great. Arrived early and left no mess when they left. Made sure we were happy with any additional work or changes needed throughout. Communication with Stephen was easy and he replied to all my messages quickly. Great service and great people would highly recommend! More...

George & Linda
It was four years ago that we first used SG Tree Services to remove a number of trees around the house. Had no problem asking then again to remove further trees along a boundary with an adjacent property.
Steve responded quickly to our initial contact and whilst we knew which trees we wanted removed there were concerns with a number of others. Steve walked round the property and looked at the trees and gave advice on their condition which was very helpful.
SG removed a section of overgrown leylandii hedging which has simply got out of hand and two further trees one behind the greenhouse and one close to the main road. All were removed professionally without any issues. We were particularly concerned about the one behind the greenhouse but all done without any damage to the greenhouse. All the smaller branches were chipped and remove off site whilst the larger branches and trunks were cut into manageable sections for us the cut down further for firewood for the wood burner. Everything was left clean and tidy. Got SG Tree Services back to grind out the stumps to allow a new fence to be erected along the boundary. I would certainly recommend them and would have no hesitation in getting them back for any future tree pruning or removal works.

Hi George & Linda, it was really nice to meet you both again. The large hedge removal was a challenge but it was good to finally see it removed and the stumps ground away. The pictures of the before and after showing the new fence in place are brilliant. I'm really glad you were happy with our service and look forward to working for you both again.
Cameron Leel
SG Tree Service removed my two huge beach stumps today. The service was great from start to finish. Stevie was very knowledgeable in his field of work and charged a very fair price - it fairly helps to have the right tool for the job! These stumps were certainly a challenge but it's proved there is no stump too big for his new stump grinder ???? Thank You! More...

Went over and above, even cutting Douglas Fir lengthways to make garden benches, site left clean and safe. I would have them back anytime for further works. My Parents thank you and so do I, this is exactly how a job should be done by an experienced team... More...

SG Tree Services were asked to take down a tree overhanging a large shed. They arrived when they said they would and set about the project in a safe and professional manner, their equipment was ideal for the task and well maintained including climbing harnesses and all other safety gear. The tree was removed safely, logged and all unwanted branches and twigs chipped and removed. More...

Silvia
Stephen was very approachable and communicated promptly. He came to our house for a quotation, that he provided in written form, and gave his availability straights away. His work was really good: we asked him to prune our eucalyptus and he did it taking into consideration our desires and what is best for the tree. Very happy with his work and would recommend him.

We are absolutely delighted with the work carried out by SG Tree Services. Stephen understood requirements at the first meeting, made helpful suggestions and provided a very competitively priced quotation for the removal of our lleylandi hedge and stump grinding. Work started on time, was carried out efficiently and was completed to requirements. The area of the garden worked on was left in a very tidy state too. 100%! More...

What do you love most about your job?
Meeting people and making a change in their garden that puts a smile on their face and the great variety of work locations are but two things I really love about this line of work.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Theres nothing more enjoyable than getting up each day and being out in the fresh air and enjoying what you do, no matter what weather is thrown at you.
Why should our clients choose you?
Our bark reviews speak for themselves however we treat each job as if it were our own very garden taking great care in what we do and tidying up after ourselves.
