Our Professional Tree Services for Heald Green Gardens


The gardens in Heald Green and the surrounding areas often feature beautiful, mature trees. Proper management is key to keeping them healthy, safe, and an asset to your property. Our team is fully qualified and equipped to handle the full range of tree surgery services.
Here’s a breakdown of what we do:
- Tree Felling & Safe Removal: If a tree is dead, diseased, dangerously positioned, or simply needs removing for a building project, we can dismantle it safely. We specialise in controlled felling, especially in confined spaces, using modern rigging techniques to ensure no damage to your house, fences, or lawn.
- Crown Reductions, Thinning & Lifting: This is the best way to manage a healthy tree. We can reduce the overall size of the canopy to bring it back into proportion, thin it out to let more light and air through, or lift the lower branches to create more clearance over paths, driveways, or your garden.
- Stump Grinding & Removal: An old tree stump can be a stubborn obstacle and an eyesore. Our powerful stump grinding machinery will remove it completely, turning it into chippings below ground level so you can reclaim the space for turf, a patio, or new plants.
- Hedge Trimming & Management: From keeping your garden hedges looking sharp and neat to reducing the height and width of large, overgrown conifer boundaries, we’ll leave them looking tidy and healthy.
- Site & Garden Clearance: Reclaiming an overgrown part of your garden or preparing a site for a new project? We can efficiently clear unwanted trees, invasive shrubs, and vegetation to give you a fresh start.
- Emergency Tree Work: Storms and high winds can cause damage. If a tree has fallen or a large branch is left hanging precariously, give us a call. We provide a rapid response service to make the situation safe.
- Tree Planting: Looking to add a new tree to your garden? We can provide expert advice on selecting the right species for the location and soil, and ensure it’s planted correctly for a long and healthy life.

Why Choose North Cheshire Forestry? It’s About Experience and Trust.

When you invite a tradesperson onto your property, you need to know they are competent, safe, and trustworthy. We’ve spent nearly five decades building a reputation on these very principles. Here is what sets us apart.
Established in 1976: Decades of Practical Experience
We’ve been working in this industry since 1976. That’s a huge amount of hands-on experience, dealing with the specific types of trees and garden layouts found right here in Heald Green. This deep local knowledge means we can work efficiently, anticipate challenges, and recommend the most effective and sensible solution for your situation.
Fully Insured & NPTC Qualified for Your Peace of Mind

Your property is in the safest possible hands. We hold Public Liability and Employers’ Liability insurance, which means you are completely covered. Every member of our team is NPTC trained and certified, the national standard for competence in operating chainsaws, tree climbing, and aerial rescue. This is your guarantee of a professional and safe job.
Working to the Highest Industry Standards (BS3998)
We believe in doing things the right way. All our tree work is carried out in accordance with British Standard 3998:2010 ‘Tree Work – Recommendations’. This is the official rulebook for our trade, ensuring that every cut we make is done to promote the long-term health and structural safety of your trees, not just a quick fix.
A Vetted and Trusted Company: Trustmark & FCA Members
Our reputation means everything to us. We are proud to hold Trustmark status, a Government Endorsed Quality scheme. This means our business practices, technical skills, and customer service have been independently checked and approved. As members of trade bodies like the Forestry Contracting Association (FCA), we stay right up to date with the latest industry safety standards and best practices.
Our Environmental Commitment: Nothing Goes to Waste
We have a deep respect for the environment we work in every day. That’s why we have a firm policy to recycle 100% of the timber and branches we remove from your property.
- Woodchip: Smaller branches are processed through our woodchipper on-site. This creates a high-quality mulch that is then delivered to local allotments, farms, and equestrian centres.
- Firewood: All good-quality timber is processed into seasoned logs for firewood, providing a sustainable and local fuel source for homes.
Respect for Our Local Wildlife
We are always aware that trees provide vital habitats. During the bird nesting season (usually March to August), we conduct thorough visual checks for active nests before any work begins. In line with the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981, we will never disturb nesting birds and will advise on postponing the work if a nest is found.
