• Our mission statement is to deliver professional work of the highest standard that is appropriate for the tree and aesthetically pleasing.

• Our quotes are free of charge, come with no obligation and are provided by a fully qualified tree surgeon. We will arrive punctually at a time convenient for you.

• We offer free advice and a wealth of experience regarding matters such as the health of a tree, ways to allow more light into your garden, the best time of year for pruning work to be carried out, what trees/plants may be suitable for planting to achieve your desired effect.

• You will quickly realise that we are passionate about trees, nature and the environment. Accordingly our advice looks at what is best for the welfare of the tree rather than what will make us the most money.

• We provide help with negotiating work to a tree subject to a Tree Preservation Orders and always ensure that we comply fully with the relevant laws and regulations.

• We employ stringent health and safety standards including comprehensive risk assessments and equipment checks.

• We use bio-degradable chain oil to help protect the environment.

• We pride ourselves not in how quickly we can climb a tree or how high we can climb it, but on how the tree looks at the end of the completed work

• Once we have finished, we will leave your garden clear and tidy and will remove the waste.

• Our tree surgery is covered by full insurance public liability cover to £2 million and is carried out with the proper health and safety considerations. Basson's Arboriculture was formed in January 2006. Before that, Simon Basson worked for fourteen years with a local tree surgery firm based

A Hornbeam tree we trimmed with hedge trimmers....hornbeam, like beech, respond well to trimming, making excellent hedges, but, unlike Beech, sadly, they don’t hold their leaves in the winter (Beech are deciduous, but when trimmed from young, they don’t drop their leaves)

Laurel hedge (not quite a before shot, we’d already done the sides and stared the top before I thought of it 🤦🏼‍♂️
