Gardeners and tree surgeons in Great Harwood

Great Harwood has a good mix of garden sizes, and plenty of properties backing onto open ground where boundary growth creeps in year after year. Tree surgery, hedge cutting, garden maintenance and power washing, with free quotes and everything cleared away afterwards.

Great Harwood

What we get called out to in Great Harwood

Where a garden backs onto fields or a track, the hedge line does the work of a fence and needs proper reducing rather than a light trim, or it thickens outwards and eats the garden.

  • Boundary hedges reduced in height and width
  • Bramble and self-seeded growth cleared
  • Fencing repairs and replacement panels
  • Green waste taken away in one go

None of that is a fixed menu — if what you need is not on it, ring and ask. If it is a job we should not be doing, we will tell you that too.

Protected trees in Great Harwood

Tree work in Great Harwood comes under Hyndburn Borough Council. If a tree has a Tree Preservation Order on it, you need their written consent before any cutting. If the property is in a conservation area, they need six weeks' written notice before the work starts.

We check which applies to your address as part of quoting, and we will not cut a protected tree without the paperwork being right. It is a criminal offence, and the fine lands on the householder as well as the contractor.

Hedge work between March and August

Nesting season. We check the hedge before starting and leave any section with an active nest in it, then come back for the rest once they have fledged. That applies in Great Harwood the same as everywhere else — it is the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, not a preference.
