"There are lots of qualifications that a Tree Surgeon can have, but I would always recommend to a customer to check that they have a valid public liability insurance cover for Tree surgery work. Because your property is at risk and a trusted Tree Surgery firm, won’t have any problems showing you their cover."

"Ye you need chainsaw maintenance and cross cutting, fell small trees up to 380mm then you can go do tree climbing and aerial rescue and then chainsaw from a rope and harness. Hope this helps you"
