Who we are

Town-and-Country Tree Surgery for Rugby

Lantra Awards approved training provider logo
City and Guilds qualified logo
NPTC qualified tree surgeon certification logo

Rugby is two jobs in one patch. In town, it is classic garden tree surgery: reducing limes and maples in the avenues around Caldecott Park, sorting boundary conifers in Hillmorton and Bilton, clearing self-set growth behind terraces near the station. Out in the borough, it is country work: field oaks over lanes, overgrown mixed hedges swallowing paddocks, and windblown ash after every named storm.

We cover both from our Birmingham base, about thirty-five minutes down the M6/A428, with the same crew, the same NPTC certification and the same promise: a free, written, fixed quote before a single cut is made.

Local knowledge

Covering Rugby Borough From Town to Field Edge

Where You’ll See Our Trucks

Rugby town itself. Bilton, Hillmorton, Overslade, Brownsover, Cawston and New Bilton, plus the borough’s villages: Dunchurch, Long Lawford, Wolston, Brinklow, Ryton-on-Dunsmore edge, Clifton upon Dunsmore and Crick just over the county line. Rural work makes up a bigger share here than anywhere else we cover.

Rugby Borough Council and Protected Trees

TPOs in the borough are administered by Rugby Borough Council, and conservation areas, including the town centre, Dunchurch and Brinklow, carry the usual six-week notice requirement for tree work. We confirm what applies to your trees and take care of the paperwork before scheduling.

Ash Dieback on the Dunsmore Plateau

The countryside south of Rugby has been hit hard by ash dieback. Dying ash gets dangerously brittle, and roadside and boundary trees are the landowner’s legal responsibility. We survey affected trees, prioritise the genuinely hazardous ones, and fell or dismantle them safely, often several in a single mobilisation to keep costs sensible.

Why Choose Us

Big-Job Capability, Small-Town Manners

Rural Rugby work needs kit and competence, winches, rigging, and climbers who can dismantle a dying ash that is too brittle to climb conventionally. Town work needs care around beds, fences and neighbours. We are set up for both, and our Rugby customers get the overlap: serious capability delivered politely, on time, at the price we quoted.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you really cover Rugby from Birmingham?

Yes, around 35 minutes via the M6. We schedule Rugby and Coventry work together, which keeps travel efficient and means no call-out or mileage charges on your quote.

I have several dying ash trees along a field boundary, where do I start?

Start with a survey. We assess each tree's condition and its targets (roads, footpaths, buildings), then prioritise: some need felling now, some can wait a season, some can simply be monitored. Doing the urgent ones in one visit keeps the cost per tree down substantially.

Is my tree protected in Rugby?

Rugby Borough Council administers TPOs, and the town centre, Dunchurch and Brinklow include conservation areas requiring six weeks' notice. We check the register for you when quoting and file whatever paperwork applies.

Can you cut back an overgrown mixed hedge on a paddock boundary?

Yes, we reduce and reshape rural hedges well beyond domestic hedge-trimmer territory, including laying-style hard cutbacks where a hedge has become a line of trees. Note that hedge cutting is restricted during bird-nesting season, so we plan this work for autumn and winter.

What areas around Rugby do you serve?

All of the borough: Dunchurch, Long Lawford, Wolston, Brinklow, Clifton upon Dunsmore, Cawston, Brownsover and the surrounding lanes, plus Crick and the A5 corridor just beyond.
