Services: affordable, professional groundworks, landscaping and firewood services

When burning fresh sawn firewood a huge amount of the energy stored within the log is consumed to boil off the moisture within the log – that is before any energy in the form of heat can be radiated from the fireplace or wood-burning stove etc. In other words it takes longer to achieve any heat from the log and the heat will be given off for a much shorter period!

Burning seasoned firewood allows the heat to be radiated from the log in a much shorter time which means less wood is required to build an effective fire and that the fire will give off more heat in less time!

Our seasoned logs generally contain between 9 – 20% moisture and sometimes even less, they have been cut during the summer and allowed to gently air dry for several months ready for successful burning in the winter.

Our mixed wood is a combination of hard/soft logs are normally a mixture of ash, oak, birch, beech among others and can be burnt either straight away or after storing indoors for 24 – 48 hours for best results!

We offer a complete hedge cutting and hedge trimming service throughout the year. Hedges require regular trimming to keep them dense and compact. We carry out hedge trimming on small domestic hedges through to hedge cutting on much larger hedges and bushes on commercial land.

During this process dangerous deadwood and crossing branches are removed or pruned to minimise the possibility of fallen broken branches. This results in a balanced shape allowing the tree to re grow from the established growth points which remain on the branches.

This technique is used for many reasons such as to reduce wind resistance and curtail root spread, or to control the size of a tree in a restricted environment.

Tree stumps can often be deemed unattractive as well as attracting fungi and parasites to your garden. Stump grinding is the most cost effective method for removing unwanted stumps.

It offers an advantage over the old fashioned approach of using diggers, winches, or digging by hand, all of which are very labour intensive and involve a certain amount of ground disturbance. Stump grinding eradicates any unnecessary work offering minimal ground disturbance to the area around the stump. Stump grinding is a very effective solution to complete eradication of an entire stump, offering advantages such as the ability to replant where the tree once stood, or provide foundations for outdoor buildings.

The range of machines we arrange to come in are accessible through the smallest of areas from front door to garden gate and can remove any size stump from small to large.

Upon completion of stump removal, the remaining hole will be back-filled with soil and grinding waste, the area around the stump left clean and tidy.
