Why Choose Us?

Deep industry expertise

As the owner, Matthew Rowden holds a professional diploma in arboriculture, qualifying him to the level of expert witness. He has also climbed for two decades for over 50 of the leading companies in the South of England, making his bones as a big tree specialist. Alongside this, he has over 20 years experience as a climber within the industry, he’s a contributor to industry media such as ProArb Magazine, regularly appears on podcasts, and consults on a wide range of issues from scientific studies to new pruning methods.

Practical, no-nonsense approach

None of the team are career consultants: every single one has come up through the industry the hard way, and understands that they are paid to deliver results, not pointless rhetoric. We are not here to tell you what you can and can’t do: we are here to figure out how you can do it.

One consultant, directly accountable to you

When you appoint one of our team, only they will be your consultant and they will be accountable to you. There will be no crossover with flaky consultants, half-finished jobs and miscommunications.

Fast turnaround, flat fees

When you appoint us, we aim for a 5 working day turnaround for your sites. Unlike other firms, we do not charge extra to turn your reports around earlier, and there is no sliding pay scale: our services are only ever charged on a flat rate so there will never be a surprise bill.
