Satisfying Developers

Practicality Brown Ltd was approached by a regular developer client to carry out tree clearance on a newly acquired site prior to re-development. The programme included felling, processing and removing over 175 trees in a two day condensed contract, some of which had a girth exceeding 3m; our extensive range of machinery, trained and experienced operatives enabled the completion of this project, like many others, to time, budget and in accordance with the most stringent compliance measures.

Our tree clearance division operates UK wide, offering a fast and efficient service with a large fleet of no-burn tree clearance equipment, for any site clearance project in a range of environments on both brown field and green field sites.
