  I was looking for someone to do my trees as they’d got a bit out of hand. He came and looked at them, gave me the quote, and I was happy to go ahead. I was well pleased. He trimmed and thinned two trees. He was very, very good – and cleaned everything up afterwards.That little book’s ever so good – thank you for doing it!

  Highly recommend Jon and his standard of work. He is an extremely polite and vastly capable individual. Punctual, excellent communication throughout the job, superb level of work ethic and also very reasonable cost wise. Jon left the gardens and access routes absolutely immaculate before departure. Really was a pleasure to deal with. Many thanks

  Jon came today to cut back my hedge. 30 ft of privet hedge and 30 ft Laylandii. All overgrown and something I have been putting off for ages. Jon arrived on time and reduced it all to a tidy manageable size in no time. He cleared it all away including my neighbours side. Very pleasant guy great at his job I would recommend him to anyone needing their trees and hedges sorting out.

  Thoroughly enjoyed Jon working in my garden, clearing a very large area of old, very overgrown Cornus bushes & willow trees. He worked really hard the whole day & did an excellent job. A lovely chap, I would highly recommend him & look forward to using him for more tree work in the future

  I asked Jon for advice on a large eucalyptus tree which had started to lean dangerously towards some garages. Jon applied to the council for me for permission to fell/prune the tree. Once permission was granted, Jon quickly agreed on a date with me, and did the tree felling very carefully, but speedily. He left the site as I would have hoped to find it. He was a pleasure to deal with at all times, and his rates are very reasonable. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

  We are very happy to recommend Briscoe Tree Care. The company responded quickly and efficiently to our initial enquiry. The quote for the work was reasonable. On the agreed date the company arrived promptly, and undertook the work well. We were consulted at every stage and were very pleased with the work undertaken. As a result we arranged for further work to be undertaken later in the year. Again a very prompt and good service was provided. We will be using the firm again in the future.

  When we moved in just before Christmas we were outfaced by the amount of work involved in tidying up the overgrown margins of our quite large garden. I chose John because I liked the comments that had been posted and he exceeded his recommendations, being very cheerful, friendly and willing, He worked extremely hard, cutting back overgrown hedges and removing three very large conifers which were blocking a lot of light. He cleared away all the considerable debris from this work and has made a huge difference to the appearance and attractiveness of the garden.

  John arrived when he said he would with all the necessary equipment and he worked continuously at my house until the job was completed. He completed the job according to my wishes after an outline discussion. He took away all the debris and the site was left clean and tidy. The garden is small and crowded and he was very careful to ensure nothing was damaged. As I am a fit pensioner it was very helpful that I was able to assist him for an agreed reduction in the overall price, though the work was heavy and not for… [read more]the faint hearted – I needed a long nap after he left! He was a competent, hardworking and cheerful professional, a pleasure to do business with.

  I needed some largish shrubs removing with stump grinding and an overhanging tree pruning and a friend recommended Jon. He had cut back a large hedge for them. He was friendly, efficient, clean and tidy. Excellent customer service – he came at times of my choosing to fit in with my work. He mainly advertised tree work but was happy to take out my shrubs.
