Testimonials

We have used Shelford Tree Service for a number of jobs and have been impressed with the clear consultation and communication to advise on what needs to be done. Their work is completed to a very high standard, efficiently and tidily. They have also been excellent in responding to emergency call-outs.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

We have used Shelford Tree Service twice now to remove one tree, to pollard anther and to tidy up a third. They are extremely professional – punctual, efficient, very mindful of safety and, in each case, tidied up very thoroughly when finished. They are also very reasonably priced. I can recommend them without hesitation.

The work on pollarding our hundred year old willow tree, which overhung the High St, was carried out quickly, efficiently and with full regard for public safety, ensuring there was little disruption to the passing pedestrians and road traffic.

Richard Houghton Foxton

First rate job. One tree, a large corkscrew willow, pollarded and a second tree expertly pruned. All in record time (no pun intended!) with waste cleared and the area left tidy. A good price for a great job. I will certainly use Shelford Tree Surgery again.

As a wedding venue we always have small windows of opportunity to carry out any work and keeping things looking neat and tidy is paramount. Jonno and his team were tasked with the removal of two huge 45 year old Laylandiis in the middle of our site. The trees in question were located right over two buildings and had an oil tank underneath them so it was a delicate operation to say the least. They were fast, safe, did not put a scratch on the buildings or the oil tank, left the place looking not just immaculate but much improved.

Shelford Tree Service was reliable, punctual and a pleasure to have working at the house. The quality of the work was excellent and our hedges have never looked so good. We will be having them back later in the year without a doubt!

I would like to record my thanks for the excellent pruning of my trees and hedges again this year. The work was undertaken in a very polite, tactful and friendly way and I would have no hesitation in recommending Jonno and his team.

We just wanted to thank you and your team for your professional, courteous and efficient work. The trees were removed and the site completely cleared and tidied without any problem at all. We shall be calling you again and we shall definitely recommend you to others!

Thank you!

John Harston

Very pleased with a prompt quotation and work that was carried out in an efficient but considerate manner. Jonno popped around really quickly, and discussed the possibilities knowledgeably, guiding us through various options. The work itself of removing some trees and cutting back others was carried out very promptly following acceptance of the quote, by an experienced and friendly team. Highly recommended, I would definitely use again.

I wanted to write and thank you for your help in Linton in the past week.

Firstly, I was impressed to receive an update on the tree removal and wall at Wheatsheaf Way. I have spoken with the owner who was having the damage to the wall assessed today. The gentleman I spoke with was obviously concerned, extremely helpful and eager to ensure all was safe.

Later in the week I received a distressing call from another parishioner, a mature tree had fallen in her garden. Following on from your earlier help, I gave the lady your number and reassured her that I felt confident that if you could help you would. I was so pleased to hear from her a few minutes later to let me know you were on your way. I have since heard that you attended to make things safe as the light was fading and returned to cut the tree up and remove it for her.

Your excellent and caring service is impressive, thank you so much! I do hope we won’t lose too many more trees this year but I will keep your number handy and won’t hesitate to recommend you.

Many thanks

We have used Jonno at Shelford Tree Services for numerous jobs at South Farm over the last couple of years. They came highly recommended and have entirely lived up to expectations!

The most recent job in February 2017 was the most taxing yet. Jonno and his team were tasked with the removal of two huge 45 year old leylandiis in the middle of our site. As a wedding venue we always have small windows of opportunity to carry out any work and keeping things looking neat and tidy is paramount. Jonno and his team started work on the Sunday so we could get a head start. The trees in question were located right next (and over) to two buildings and had an oil tank underneath them so it was a delicate operation to say the least. The team carried out the work superbly. They were fast, safe, did not put a scratch on the buildings or the oil tank, left the place looking not just immaculate but much improved and charged exactly as per their quote as they always have. They are decent, honest, skilled, reliable, hardworking and I am very grateful to them. I will be using them for all ongoing tree surgery and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

A truly professional service at a great price. Jonno dealt with the whole process with the council TPO request and then a team of eight guys set about ground clearing, tree felling and stump grinding. The team turned up when they said they would, completed the job they quoted for and took away all materials. I wouldn’t look anywhere else for this service.

We used Shelford Tree Service during the CV virus and were most impressed with them from start to finish – they were efficient, friendly, left everything tidy and worked strictly to CV guidelines.

Can thoroughly recommend them.

Liz Bates LINTON

Shelford Tree Services provided a significant range of services for our private road in Harston ranging from shrub reduction to high level pollarding. All work was carried out in a professionally skilled manner and within agreed timescales. The team were very polite throughout , the way in which they managed residents needs during a period of restrictive road access was a credit to them. "

Many thanks for a good job done - I'm sure we will be in touch in the future.
