At the end of my land, there was a total of 26 dead trees, all diseased that had to be felled, 9 of these down a steep embankment. Sam came up with a plan and the following week had a team on my land. They were amazing!

I would have no hesitation in recommending Arborscape. We had a number of poor quality trees felled, And some healthy tree pruning also some ivy removal from our woods. I thought their quote was appropriate for the amount work needing done. Sam gave a prompt service with estimates, clear pricing and completion of works. All above was carried out in an efficient and competent way would have no hesitation in having them again for tree works.

Arborscape came highly recommended to us when searching for a company to manage our small woodland in the Lake District. Sam & team have worked tirelessly to help us maintain and improve the woodland. Creating thoughtful planting schemes and devising impactful maintenance plans.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about groundworks? Find answers about site preparation, excavation, ground clearance, and professional groundwork services.

Why are professional ground works important for a construction project?

Good ground works create a strong and stable starting point for any construction project. Proper site preparation, excavation and drainage help reduce potential ground-related problems and provide a reliable foundation for the work that follows.

What is ground levelling and why is it needed?

Ground levelling involves adjusting the surface to create a more even and stable area. It is important for preparing land for construction, driveways, patios and landscaping. Accurate levelling also helps encourage proper water runoff and creates a better surface for future work.
