Highly professional, tidy and courteous
Dave Ford Tree Care turned out to be an excellent choice. We have some very large trees which need careful management every 10 years or so. They worked in two blocks with different crews, sometimes more than one, and all were as nice to have on site as the others. They were careful, respectful and considerate throughout and have all the right gear to really crack on with it. First class!

Garden job done well
We had Dave Ford Tree Care to take out some dead trees and prune a specimen Oak Tree.
This was our first experience with Dave Ford. All was managed very well from the quotation stage to completion. I cannot praise them enough!
On the day the team was very friendly and got on with the work quickly and efficiently. Good to see that Dave Ford dropped in to see everything was going well.
Highly recommended!

Job very well done
Job very well done! Good communication from the start. Excellent initial assessment of the situation and, I sensed, a strong interest in ecology and sustainability. These people are in high demand, so we had to wait for a few weeks for the job to be done but it was well worth the wait. Clean and tidy workers with expertise who are conscientious. Can recommend 100 per cent.

A great job
Dave Ford quoted the tree works some time ago but had to wait for UK Power Networks to find a date that they could switch off power. Work eventually done on 24 November. Team of Adrian, Chris, Louis and Harvey did a great job, cleared up all the twigs etc, left the logs that we wanted on site and even cut the stump into a seat and sliced a long log lengthwise for grandchildren to sit on! Returned a week later on a date agreed with us to finish cutting out dead branches. A great job done by an expert, polite, considerate , careful team

Safe hands
Dave invests well in equipment but more importantly in the whole team with a great work ethic and were all an absolute pleasure. Safely felled 4 awkward dead trees that others wouldn’t quote for.
