What we do

Tree work by people who actually like trees

An arborist sectional felling a tree, lowering a limb on rigging ropes

Tree felling & removal

Straight fells where there is room, and sectional dismantling with ropes and rigging where there is not. We take trees down beside conservatories, sheds and boundary walls without touching them.

From €250 · large mature trees €900 to €2,000

Crown reduction & thinning

Get your light back without losing the tree. We shorten branches to healthy growth points so the tree keeps its natural shape and stays safe. We do not top trees, and we will explain why if anyone has offered to.

From €300

A stump grinder removing a large tree stump in a back garden

Stump grinding

Ground out 250mm below soil level so you can turf, pave or plant straight over it. We bring our own grinder, so you are not waiting on a hire company.

From €90 per stump

A gardener trimming a long garden hedge with a petrol hedge cutter

Hedge cutting & maintenance

Beech, laurel, privet and leylandii, cut straight and cleared away. Annual and twice yearly maintenance if you would rather not think about it again.

From €150

A tall leylandii conifer being dismantled section by section by a roped arborist

Conifer & leylandii removal

The most common call we get in Limerick. A row of overgrown leylandii taken out, roots ground, and the boundary handed back to you the same day where we can.

Enormous ash about two metres from the house. I genuinely did not think it could come down safely. Gone in a day, and you would never know they had been in the garden.

Rang at seven in the morning with a tree across the drive after the storm. They were here by ten and I was able to get the car out before lunch. Fair price for an emergency.

Crown reduction on a big beech that had taken all the light from the kitchen. It still looks like a tree, not a lamp post, which is exactly what I was afraid of.

★★★★★

Forty metres of hedging cut and taken away, and they swept the footpath outside afterwards without being asked. Booked them for next year on the spot.

★★★★★

Row of leylandii gone and all six stumps ground out. The lads were sound with the kids wandering out to watch and kept everything roped off.

Asked them to quote for taking down an oak. Cian came out, had a proper look and told me it was healthy and did not need to come down. Cost me nothing. That is rare.
