Care for your trees and outdoor space

Plant for today.
Grow for tomorrow.

Tree care is also about what comes next. We advise on and carry out tree planting across Aberdeenshire, helping you choose trees for their setting, eventual size and the character they will bring to your garden.

  • Species and site selection
  • Garden trees and boundary planting
  • Ground preparation and planting
  • Establishment and aftercare guidance

Look beyond the nursery size

Consider the height, spread and shade a tree may create as it matures. Soil, exposure, available space and nearby structures all influence the choice, alongside flowering, foliage and seasonal colour.

Give the roots a good start

We plan planting around the tree and site, including ground preparation and any suitable support or protection. A well-chosen tree needs a suitable setting as well as careful planting.

Help it establish

Watering and follow-up care are especially important while roots settle into their new surroundings. We discuss what to watch for and the practical care needed, rather than assuming a planted tree can immediately look after itself.

A practical next step

Tell us what matters.
We’ll help with the detail.

01 / YOUR SPACE

Show us the site.

Send photographs and your location. Let us know about narrow access, nearby buildings and the trees or hedges involved.

02 / YOUR PRIORITIES

Tell us what matters.

Explain the concern: shade, clearance, overgrown hedges or new planting. We can discuss which approach suits the site.

03 / YOUR PROJECT

Agree a clear plan.

We discuss access, the scope of work and clearance before providing a quotation. Any tree protection requirements should be checked before work is scheduled.

Local knowledge · Thoughtful work

Rooted in Royal Deeside.
Working across Aberdeenshire.

From Tarland, Aboyne and Ballater to Banchory, Braemar, Alford, Inverurie, Westhill and Aberdeen, tell us where the site is and what you have in mind. We also welcome enquiries from across North East Scotland; share your postcode so we can discuss the project and travel.

A question worth asking

Can you help choose a tree for a small garden?

Yes. Tell us the space available, soil and light conditions, and what you would like the tree to provide. Mature size is central to the choice.

Kind words. Lasting confidence.

Good work.
Happy customers.

“The removal of 9 leylandii trees was seamless and I would not hesitate in recommending this family run business”
