Arborists in short
An arborist is a trained specialist in the care of individual trees: how they grow, what makes them unsafe and how to prune, protect or remove them properly. In the UK the words arborist and tree surgeon are used for much the same people. At Clearcut, our arborists hold NPTC, City & Guilds and Lantra qualifications, work to British Standard BS3998 and carry £5 million public liability insurance. We're based in Ferndown, near Bournemouth, and cover all of Dorset and Hampshire.

What an arborist does for you
Good tree work starts with understanding the tree, not with the saw.
An arborist looks at the species, the health and structure of the tree, the soil and the space around it before recommending anything. Sometimes the answer is a big job; often it is a smaller one, or nothing at all.
We are often asked to look at trees that are leaning, have fungus at the base, have dead branches or are close to a house, and to explain what a TPO means for a planned job. We give that advice for free on a site visit, and put it in writing when you need a report.
When work is needed, the same team does it: crown reduction, thinning, lifting, dismantling and felling, stump grinding and emergency work.
Qualified. Insured. Trusted.
These are the things to ask any tree surgeon before they start work.
We'll show you our certificates and insurance before we start. You should never have to chase a tree surgeon for them.
