Tree Felling

Tree Felling & Removal

When a tree is dead, dangerous or simply in the wrong place, it needs taking down safely. With room to spare we fell it whole; in tight spots we dismantle it piece by piece, lowering each section on ropes clear of houses, walls and overhead lines.

Crown Care

Crown Reduction & Pruning

Often the answer isn’t removal but the right pruning. Reducing, thinning or lifting a crown brings back light, lightens heavy limbs and helps a tree stand up to the wind — without the harm that topping does.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had multiple large trees removed due to Ash Dieback. Some were very hard to access and the Elm team had all the correct equipment to do the job safely. Very good crew of lads.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am really pleased with your team, the service provided, and the great communication. Cutting the trees made a huge difference in the landscape around the house. I would like to thank you for the work done yesterday and for the team's professionalism. They have left everything so clean that no one could notice that 4 trees were cut. Definitely, I will be in touch with Elm Landscaping and tree surgery services if I need more work done in the future.

See All FAQs

Yes — from Ennis, Shannon and Sixmilebridge to Killaloe, Kilrush and Ennistymon, plus the rural areas in between. Let us know where the tree is and we’ll arrange a visit.

For most garden trees, no. Consent from Clare County Council may be needed where a tree has a Tree Preservation Order, stands in an Architectural Conservation Area or is in the grounds of a protected structure, and some rural felling needs a licence. We’ll point out anything to check when we visit.

Yes. Phone us for anything urgent — a fallen tree, a split trunk or a limb resting on a roof, car or road. We make it safe first, then clear it away.

We are. We’re fully certified and insured, and our NPTC-certified arborists work beside buildings, roads and overhead lines every week. Certificates are available on request.

Every job is priced individually, based on the tree’s size, the access, what’s around it and whether the stump is ground out. The site visit costs nothing, and you’ll have a written quotation before you decide.

Of course. We can cut the timber into logs and stack it for you, or take everything away. Branches are chipped on site either way.
