Specialised Tree Services
What customers say
In Poole, off Layton Road, Specialised Tree Services has built a strong local reputation for pruning, crown reduction and full tree removal, including felling specimens well over ten metres tall close to gardens and outbuildings. Clients describe the team, led by Rob and including staff named Zak, Francis and Jake, as punctual and often early, working with energy while protecting neighbouring property, on one occasion even clearing dust from a neighbour's car after a removal. One thing mentioned again and again is how thoroughly the crews clear away branches, logs and debris, leaving gardens and driveways cleaner than before the job started. Quotes are consistently described as fair and competitive, with several customers noting Rob visited quickly to assess the work and that prices compared favourably against others obtained locally. Communication is another strength, with the team keeping customers informed if running late. Domestic and commercial clients mention repeat use over several years, particularly for ongoing pruning of specimen trees such as magnolias and eucalyptus. Larger jobs, including a fifteen-metre cedar removal and clearance of dense bushes, have been handled by teams of three or four working a full day, with offcuts sometimes chopped for firewood. The business operates around the clock, seven days a week, giving flexibility for scheduling removals of this scale.

Rob and his team always deliver a great service. Highly recommend!
Brilliant service. Really happy with the job. I live with loads of trees behind my house. So to have the branches cut back to the trunk with the birch tree. And the willow tree. Which was hanging over my boundary. Looks so much better 🙂 And the guy who did the work. He did an amazing job. And very polite too. The price was good too. As i was quoted a lot more with someone else. Before and after pics So thank you again. Will definitley recommend 🙂
Thanks to Rob and his team for a brilliant job from start to finish. We needed our hedges (laurels) trimming which had become unruly and too tall, as well as my parents house which needed a complete tidy up as their hedges had become very overgrown and we needed to prepare the property for sale. Rob and his team came highly recommended and from start to finish they were very professional. Great comms, Rob was able to fit me in quickly for a quote, they were punctual at all times and a really friendly, polite and courteous team, the work was carried out seamlessly and the gardens were both left tidy and with nice sharp looking hedges. They were great with offering advice as we didn’t want to cut some of the hedging back too far and leave them too bare, we’re really happy with the results and will definitely be using them again for an annual trim and will be recommending them too. Thanks again!
I highly recommend Specialist Tree Services! They recently came out to prune a large eucalyptus tree for me and did an outstanding job from start to finish. The team arrived right on time, worked incredibly efficiently, and maintained a high level of professionalism throughout the morning. I was especially impressed with how perfectly they cleaned up the site afterward. If you’re looking for a reliable, professional, and high-quality tree service, look no further. Five stars!
The boys arrived earlier than the appointed time, and worked so hard to make a fantastic job - thank you so much
