Firstly, I give a quote and entail in it everything that is included, what tree surgery is involved, what type of crane for tree surgery is used, price always includes removal of brash, branches and wood, down to a low stump.

On the day of the crane assisted tree removal we all arrive early. Set up time takes a while. Where to put the crane where to put the chipper and tipper vans, where to position timber collection. We don’t do any tree surgery until after 8am, this is when the tree removal begins. Unlike normal tree surgery where we start from the bottom and work our way to the top in the case of crane assisted tree removal we start from the top and work our way down.
