Services
Established two years before the great storm of 1987, we became Arboricultural Association Approved Contractors in 1997 and have grown steadily over the years to become one of the most comprehensive tree surgery providers in the area.
General maintenance or urgent tree work, Dryad Tree Specialists can help. We offer free initial consultations for tree work and make recommendations by way of a no obligation quotation. We offer complete arboricultural services for both private and domestic clients and are on the Approved Contractors List for several local authorities.
Alongside our range of tree surgery operations we also offer a variety of ground level services utilising the latest machinery and tree care techniques. For single stumps in a back garden or numerous stumps on a tree clearance site, we operate a range of stump grinding machines for both domestic and commercial situations.
Our staff are fully trained and qualified in professional tree inspection and surveys, and are able to assist landowners, buyers, estate managers and insurers understand the state of any trees on site and how best to manage them. Our approach is bespoke and the reports we produce tailored to the individual clients needs and industry regulations.
Biomass is plant or animal material used for energy production (electricity or heat). At Dryad we produce two grades of wood chip which is taken away on a weekly basis to a number of different power stations where it is incinerated to produce electricity. All the large wood which is brought back to our yard is processed using our Valmet tractor and Heizohack Chipper.

Dryad removed two large trees for me this week. Without exception, the team were professional, polite and hard working. The work was completed to a high standard, the site left clean and tidy, and their price was competitive. Would definitely recommend.

We had a Silver Burch and an Oak removed and the stumps ground down. The guys on site did an amazing job considering it was snowing in the morning and I would definitely recommend Dryad to any one wanting a company that is very competitively priced and professional

Dryad was excellent. The guys arrived at the allotted time and got to work immediately and accommodated all requests associated with the work.
The work was performed well and without impact on the surrounding residents and he site was left immaculate on completion. Could not wish for a smoother or well executed job.
My mum, who is 94 years old, wanted to pass on her thanks for a job well done.

Thank you Dryad for being so professional. It was a difficult task to take out top and sides of two overgrown leylandii within a challenging, and smallish, garden. Great work on the shaping of the trees. We appreciated the care and time taken to avoid damaging the garden and to remove the branches and leaves. Would recommend

Dryad trees did extensive tree removal for us and were exceptional. The guys were professional, courteous and very hard working. They clearly enjoyed their work and we will definitely be looking to use them again.

I found Dryad Trees to be a very professional and efficient company. The team worked extremely hard on a four day job at my property, and were at all times polite, courteous and very knowledgeable. They arrived promptly and also cleared up very well, and the area they were working on now looks fantastic. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending them.

Dryad Team were very professional, got the job done efficiently. There was a bit of an accident when one of the slab broke but was quickly replaced the next day.
Very happy to recommend to others and will definitely seek their business again in the future.
