Whether you're worried about a tree after a storm, planning building work near mature trees, or just want to know what's best for the oak at the bottom of the garden, we'll come out, take a proper look and tell you what's needed, and what isn't.
What is an arborist?
An arborist (or arboriculturist) is a specialist in the care and management of individual trees. Unlike general gardening, arboriculture looks at how a tree grows, what stresses it, how it's likely to behave in future, and how to keep it safe and healthy for as long as possible. Our advice is based on what the tree actually needs, not on selling you the biggest job.

Not sure whether your tree needs attention, or whether you need permission before work begins? Below are answers to the questions we hear most from homeowners, landlords and businesses across Stirling and Central Scotland. If yours isn’t covered, call us on 07599 00 88 09 and we’ll be happy to help.
Warning signs include dead or brittle branches, thinning or discoloured leaves out of season, mushrooms or bracket fungi at the base, cracks, hollows, sudden leaning, and lifting soil around the roots. If you notice any of these, get it checked sooner rather than later.
It depends. If your tree is protected by a TPO, or sits in a conservation area, you'll normally need consent from the local council before doing any work. Larger-scale felling may also need Scottish Forestry permission. Get in touch and we'll point you in the right direction before anything is cut.
Mature trees near buildings, roads or public areas benefit from a regular check, and after any major storm. We can advise on a sensible schedule for your site.
