Services
Tree Felling
Professional tree felling for hazardous, diseased, or development-related trees. Our NPTC-certified team uses controlled dismantling techniques and MEWPs to ensure safety near buildings and power lines. We handle complete removals under Tree Preservation Orders with council liaison, including waste clearance and site restoration. All work complies with British Standard BS3998 and includes risk assessments.
Stump Grinding
Efficient stump removal using specialist machinery to eliminate trip hazards and prepare sites for replanting. We grind stumps below ground level, leaving minimal mess while ensuring complete root system removal. This service supports landscaping projects and prevents regrowth, with all wood waste recycled responsibly within Glasgow.
Storm Damage Clearance
Rapid response for storm-damaged trees, prioritising safety and property protection. Our qualified team handles urgent removals of fallen trees, broken branches, and unstable limbs using climbing gear and rigging systems. We operate across Glasgow with 24/7 emergency availability during severe weather events.
Crown Reduction
Precision pruning to reduce tree size while maintaining structural integrity. Our arborists apply species-specific techniques for crown thinning, lifting, and shaping to improve light penetration and airflow. This service enhances tree health, reduces wind resistance, and mitigates risks from heavy branches near properties.
Site Clearance
Comprehensive vegetation removal for construction, development, or garden restoration. We handle large-scale projects including invasive species management, shrub removal, and recycling of all green waste. Our services meet legal wildlife protection requirements and include soil preservation techniques to prepare sites for future use.

Report
5 star service from Casey tree care today. Can’t believe how hard the three men worked in the blistering heat. Two massive trees completely removed and my garden left cleaner then when they arrived. Couldn’t recommend these guys anymore 🌟 🌟 🌟🌟🌟 Professional service at an affordable price.
