Report
Did work next door, illegally entered my property early morning and cut down my Passion flower at root level. This is hardly trimming overhanging branches and a 6ft fence! When I phoned to complain he denied it despite leaving his ear defenders on my chair and a load of mess. Continued to deny and hung up.

Colchester Tree Services have done several jobs for us, from thinning, to removing some pretty big trees and stump grinding, we have been happy with what they have done for us and have always turned up when they have said and just got on and got the job done. I would be happy to recommend them.
