Tree surgeon in Horwich & Blackrod

Qualified, insured tree surgery for Horwich, Blackrod and Lostock — from wind-exposed hillside trees to tight terraced gardens.

Tree surgery in Horwich, Blackrod and Lostock

Horwich sits on the edge of the West Pennine Moors, below Rivington Pike, and gardens here can take the full force of westerly winds coming off the hills. That makes regular tree care particularly worthwhile — a well-reduced, deadwooded crown is far less likely to fail in a winter storm.

What Horwich customers ask us for

  • Crown reductions and thinning on exposed trees to cut wind load.
  • Section felling of large trees in the tight gardens of older stone terraces.
  • Conifer and leylandii reduction on the newer estates around Middlebrook and Lostock.
  • Stump grinding after removals so gardens can be re-landscaped.
  • Storm-damage clearance after high winds.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you cover Horwich and Blackrod?

Yes. We regularly work in Horwich, Blackrod, Lostock and the surrounding area, with free quotes.

My trees in Horwich catch a lot of wind — what can I do?

A crown reduction or crown thin reduces the sail area of a tree and removing dead wood takes out weak branches. We can inspect the tree and advise.

Can you work in small terraced gardens?

Yes. We dismantle trees in sections and carry everything out by hand if there’s no vehicle access.
