Tree Surgeons in Hale
Some of the biggest gardens and most protected trees in Greater Manchester: rigged dismantling, careful reductions and the council paperwork handled, from Hale village out to Hale Barns.
Tree Work in Hale
Hale has some of the largest private gardens and the most protected tree stock in Greater Manchester. Mature cedars, beeches and oaks stand over the Victorian and Edwardian houses around the village and Hale Station, and the plots out in Hale Barns run to sizes the rest of Trafford can only envy. Trees that size need a tree surgeon who can rig and dismantle them in sections, not just a man with a saw, and that is the work we are set up for.
The paperwork matters more in Hale than almost anywhere we cover. Tree Preservation Orders sit thick across WA15, and the Hale Station, South Hale and Ashley Heath conservation areas add a second layer: any tree inside them with a trunk wider than 75mm at 1.5m up needs six weeks’ written notice to Trafford Council before work starts. We check the status of every tree before we quote and handle the council application with you, because in Hale you usually need one.
We are based in Stretford, around seven miles away, and the run down the A56 through Sale and Altrincham is one we make all the time. Access is the other local reality: plenty of Hale gardens are reached through a side gate or a shared drive, and the plots dropping towards the Bollin fall away steeply. Tree felling, crown reduction, stump grinding and hedge cutting all get planned around what the site actually allows, and every quote is free and in writing.

Hale FAQs
We are based in Stretford, around seven miles away, and Hale is one of our regular runs down the A56. Being Trafford based helps with more than travel time: most tree work in Hale needs something from Trafford Council first, and we deal with the same planning department week in, week out.
No. Every quote is free and in writing. We respond within 24 hours, come out to look at the tree, and you have a written quote within 48 hours. If the tree turns out to be protected we tell you at the visit and explain what the council application involves before anything is agreed.
All of WA15: the village centre, the roads around Hale Station, Well Green, Ashley Heath and out through Hale Barns towards Ringway. We take on the steeper gardens down towards the Bollin too, and cover neighbouring Bowdon and Altrincham on the same runs.
