Trees are an important and beautiful part of our natural landscape.

However, some trees, particularly larger varieties of tree, can become problematic in our built-up urban areas.

Root systems can lift pavements and driveways, or interfere with foundations of buildings, leaves can clog gutters and drains, and there’s the risk of the tree dropping branches or failing.

At Beaver Tree Service we pride ourselves on having the knowledge and skill to assess, prune, or remove trees which are awkwardly located or are a threat to surrounding property. We can also work with you to find the best solution for any tree concerns you may have.

Working together to provide you the best service in town.
