Report
We asked Orchard Tree Surgery to sort out a troublesome tree that was obscuring the sun from our conservatory and covering it with leaves. Andrew, the owner was brilliant. He came promptly to quote me for the work and was most kind and courteous. After we agreed what was to be done he arrived to start the job, on time, on the day we had decided. His work was professional and efficient and he cleaned up well after himself. The whole experience was great, no fuss and comes highly recommended. Mrs Thompson, Carlisle.
