JLH Tree & Hedge Services
What customers say
JLH Tree & Hedge Services, run from Borrowash, has built a strong reputation for hedge and tree work carried out by Jamie and a regular colleague. Feedback describes a wide range of jobs, from removing an old privet hedge including decades-old roots to cutting back mixed species such as Eucalyptus, Magnolia, Birch, Bay, Maple and Olive trees, along with felling a large tree entirely during a spell of hot weather. Several reviewers mention neglected or overgrown apple and maple trees being brought back into shape, including correcting earlier poor pruning. A theme that appears throughout is the thoroughness of the clean-up afterwards, with cuttings, roots and debris consistently cleared so that little sign of the work remains. Timekeeping and pricing are mentioned favourably in multiple reviews, with the pair arriving on agreed dates and quoting fairly for the scope involved. Customers also note that Jamie takes time beforehand to discuss exactly what is wanted, and repeat instructions or referrals from neighbours feature in several accounts. The working relationship is described as respectful of both the property in question and those next door. Operating with availability around the clock every day of the week, the business handles jobs ranging from single garden hedges to multiple trees across a property in one visit.

I cannot recommend JLH Trees highly enough, the service I received what top. I had 2 large conifer trees removed in my garden, along with trees on my drive. The work was carried out within a few hours and everywhere was left clean and tidy. The price was really good and Jamie kept me updated throughout. Will definitely use JLH again in the future and recommend to everyone. Thank you!
Jamie, Dave and their team worked to get a very large ash tree in a small garden crowned. This tree has a preservation order on it and they worked with the council to agree work to be carried out. They did the application to the council and communicated with me throughout the process. Work was done over a neighbouring car park and they cleared away at the end.
Jamie and his team took down a large birch tree and pruned other trees for us. They are courteous, friendly and tidy. Highly recommended for any tree or hedging work.
Thank you to you and your team for removing the large tree off my garden in this uncomfortably hot weather! Really happy with the work completed. Will highly recommend and already getting quotes for further works.
JLH Tree and Hedge service is a company that I would seriously recommend to others. They had quite a job to do in my front garden but I was thrilled with the end result. They did a sterling job and were a very polite and friendly couple. Everything was completely cleaned and tidied afterwards. I’m definitely having them back in Autumn for another job that I need doing in the back garden. Thank you JLH.
