W Hartley Jnr Ltd is a family-run tree surgery business working across Central Scotland, the Lothians and the Scottish Borders, from back gardens to commercial grounds and estates. We take pride in every job, big or small.
Every job is carried out by skilled climbers using proper rigging and cutting techniques, whether that's a single overhanging branch, a full felling job, or sectional dismantling in a tight, tricky space. Some trees need permission before they can be worked on, if a Tree Preservation Order or conservation area applies, and we can advise on that too.
Every quote is free and comes with honest, no-pressure advice, and we always clear the site properly before we leave.
We cover domestic gardens, commercial grounds and everything in between, right across the central belt and down into the Borders.
