Where we work

Tree surgery in Horsforth & Rawdon.

Covering Horsforth, Rawdon, Yeadon and the surrounding LS18 and LS19 postcodes. Semi-rural with a mix of Victorian properties and larger modern plots.

Tree surgery in Horsforth and Rawdon.

Horsforth and Rawdon sit to the north-west of Leeds where the city edges into more open countryside. The mix of Victorian terraces, large Edwardian semis and newer rural-edge properties means a wide variety of tree work: from confined urban gardens to larger open plots where access is easier but the trees are bigger.

Rawdon has a number of older properties with significant trees in the gardens, and some parts of the village fall within conservation area designations. The area around Yeadon Tarn also has mature trees along the water's edge that periodically need attention.

We cover all of LS18 and LS19 and know the area well. Free site visit anywhere in Horsforth, Rawdon and Yeadon, no call-out charge.
