Yes. We carry £10 million public liability cover, and every job is carried out by a qualified, fully insured team.

How deep do you grind a stump?

We grind stumps below ground level so the area can be re-turfed, replanted or paved over. Depth depends on the stump and what you plan to do with the space afterwards.

Do you remove deadwood from mature trees?

Yes. Deadwood removal is part of routine crown work and makes a mature tree safer to sit and play under. We can combine it with a reduction or a crown lift if the tree needs it.

Why do Farnham homeowners call a tree surgeon?

Most calls come from a specific problem rather than routine upkeep. If any of these sound familiar, we can help.

A tree growing too close to the house or drive
Branches overhanging a neighbour's garden, a fence or the road
Storm damage, split limbs or a leaning tree
Light blocked from a garden, window or lawn
A dead, dying or unsafe tree that needs assessing
Clearing trees or hedges before building work

Farnham has a great many mature gardens and a lot of protected trees. If your tree sits in a conservation area or carries a Tree Preservation Order, we can talk you through what is likely to need permission from the council before any work starts. [CONFIRM: does JBF submit TPO / conservation area applications to Waverley Borough Council on the customer's behalf, or advise only?]

How much does tree removal in Farnham cost?

Every tree is different, so we quote on the job rather than from a price list. Size, species, access, what is underneath the tree and where the waste goes all change the work involved.

We will come and look, talk you through the options, and give you a free, no-obligation quote in writing. There is no pressure to book. [CONFIRM: are site visits and quotes always free and are they provided in writing by email?]

When is the best time for hedge trimming and tree pruning?

Most hedge trimming is best done outside the main bird nesting season, which generally runs from March to August. We always check a hedge for active nests before we start work.

Pruning and tree reductions can be carried out at different times depending on the species. Some trees are better pruned in winter when they are dormant, others are happier with a summer trim.

Tree removal and stump grinding can usually be done at any time of year. If you are not sure what your tree needs, just ask and we will advise.
