Tree Surgeon advice
What is the hourly rate for a tree surgeon?
- Hourly rates for tree surgeons vary widely because tree work can involve different levels of skill, insurance, risk and equipment.
- Many providers prefer to quote for the whole job rather than give a simple hourly rate.
- This is because a visit can include travel, setup, climbing, cutting, lowering branches, chipping, loading and waste disposal.
- A small pruning job may need one or two workers, while a difficult removal may require a larger team.
- Work near houses, roads, fences, greenhouses or power lines can also affect pricing.
- The most useful way to get an accurate figure is to provide photos, postcode, tree size and access details.
