Acorn Trees
Based in Ipswich in the historic county of Suffolk, Acorn Trees is a company that takes great pride in the service it provides for its customers. We are reliable, professional and experienced, and we offer a comprehensive range of services in tree surgery for homes and businesses throughout Suffolk and the wider area.

Here at Acorn Trees we have at our disposal the expert knowledge to carry out every type of arboreal task, from a simple tidy up to major surgery. Some of the jobs we undertake are challenging and not without risk, particularly when working at height. Which is why it's essential to call in a reputable company with specialist skills.

Our team is led by Ben Miller, a qualified arborist with over 20 years' experience, and our aim is to provide the best and most cost effective solutions to our customers' requirements when it comes to trees and hedges. Operating mainly in Suffolk, Norfolk and North Essex, our extensive range of services includes all aspects of tree surgery, stump grinding, and hedge trimming.
Services
Ben Miller has a City & Guilds in Aboriculture, and has been a tree surgeon for 20 years. He learned his trade working for various local companies in the Ipswich area, and around 15 years ago decided to set up in business on his own. In the early days we often worked alongside other tree surgery companies, but as we established a reputation and began to employ more qualified operatives, Acorn Trees began to take shape.
We believe the best way to grow a successful business is to build up a reputation through the quality of the service or product on offer. Here at Acorn Trees we like to think we've done that. And because we wouldn't expect you to take our word for it, we're happy to let some of our existing customers give their opinion in words of their own.
Whether it's tree felling, crown lifting, stump grinding or a simple hedge trim, there are more tree surgery needs within our region than any one company could hope to cater for. Our Testimonials page is proof that many home and business owners in the area are happy with the services we provide, and if you would like to join them, do call us on 01473 405427 or send us a message here.
Some of the work we undertake is related to events that have occurred over time, including dead or decaying trees, overcrowding or simply a loss of natural light. Other issues can arise suddenly, such as damage following high winds or storms. Issues with trees and hedges come in all shapes and sizes, from simple trimming for cosmetic reasons to more serious and challenging problems.
The height of a tree sometimes needs to be reduced by pruning the upper part of the crown (see crown reduction), and in much the same way, the space between the lower branches and ground level sometimes needs to be increased. Crown lifting involves the skilled technique of removing limbs and branches from the lower part of the tree, with the objective of raising the overall height of the crown to a specified distance from the ground.

Ben and his team are excellent at their jobs, cannot recommend them highly enough. Nothing is too much trouble, highly professional and they always clear away and tidy up after themselves. Have been using them for tree and shrub trimming for over three years and price wise they cannot be matched. Great value for money.

Ben’s team, Jason and Giles, arrived on time and set to work on several trees, reducing and tidying. First class service, assessing each tree from start to finish and checking I was happy with end result. Removed all cuttings and waste and left the garden tidy. Highly recommended and will definitely use again.

Great service from Ben and the team - this is the second time that we've had the trees in our garden pruned and trimmed. Particularly impressed with the clean-up and removal of all the 'debris'. Would definitely recommend.

Great service once again from Ben and his team, this time topping and tidying three huge cherry trees in our front garden. As always the team were friendly and courteous, did an amazing job with the trees and left our garden immaculate. Highly recommended.

Ben and his team felled our oak tree this week and pruned some overhanging trees. They did a very professional job and left the garden tidy on completion - very pleased and would recommend them.

Ben and his team have just completed a job for me and 2 neighbors. Slightly complicated as the tree occupied 3 boundaries but he and his team were more than capable. Very happy with the outcome. Well priced, professional, efficient and cleaned up after themselves. Would recommend 100%

An excellent service by three super blokes who cut down our tree, ground out the stump and removed all of the wood too. Such a shame it was such a wet day for them. I too would recommend this company. Thank you.
