Why Broads Tree Work Is Different
Between the water, the narrow lanes and the protected trees, the Broads isn't like ordinary inland tree work. Here's what we plan around on every Broadland job.
Riverside & Mooring-Side Access
Trees over dykes, moorings and open water, worked from the bank or afloat where a normal platform can’t reach.
Narrow Lanes & Tight Access
Many Broadland homes sit down single-track lanes or behind gates, so we plan the kit and setup around the access before quoting.
Conservation Areas & Protected Trees
Much of the Broads falls inside conservation areas or under Tree Preservation Orders. We check what’s protected and handle the paperwork.
Mature Trees Near Homes & Cables
Big willows, poplars and oaks close to houses, boats and overhead lines are rigged down in sections to protect what’s below.
Storm, Flood & Fallen Trees
24-hour call-out for the gales and saturated ground that bring Broadland trees down over roads, boats and buildings.
NPTC Qualified & £5m Insured
The same standards wherever we work: NPTC (City & Guilds) climbers, £5m public liability cover and pruning to BS 3998.

Protected Trees & Permissions in the Broads
A large share of Broadland woodland, waterside and village trees are protected — either within a conservation area or under a Tree Preservation Order. We check before anything is cut, so your tree work stays on the right side of the rules.
We work out which authority applies — the Broads Authority, a district council or the county — prepare the tree works application and wait for consent where it’s needed. Read our plain-English guide, or see the Broadland villages we cover.
