From overgrown to workable.
Most clearance jobs need more than one trade: someone to cut the trees, someone with a digger, someone to take the waste away and someone to level the ground.
We bring all of it to site as one crew. Chainsaw work, excavators, dumpers, waste handling and ground preparation, managed together from the first cut to the finished ground.
- Trees and scrub cutChainsaw work takes down trees, hedgelines and heavy growth.
- Brash and waste handledCut material is gathered, loaded and taken away.
- Roots and stumps dug outExcavators pull out what’s left in the ground.
- Spoil and material movedDumpers shift soil, rubble and debris to where it needs to go.
- Ground preparedLevelled and left workable for building, landscaping or the next stage.

Tree work across Devon
Felling, dismantling and removal, including dangerous and storm-damaged trees. When the tree is down, we deal with the timber and the ground it leaves behind.
Trees taken down safely. Site left clear.
From a single tree too close to the house to a line of overgrown conifers, we take trees down in the way the site allows. Where there’s room, a tree can be felled whole. Where there isn’t, it’s climbed and dismantled in controlled sections.
If you’ve been searching for a tree surgeon in Devon because a tree needs to come down, this is the work we do. And because we also run machinery, the job doesn’t stop at the stump. Timber can be processed on site, brash cleared, and roots dug out and the ground levelled if you need the space back.
Related: land clearance and root and stump excavation.
Tree work we carry out
- Tree felling
- Sectional dismantling
- Tree removal
- Dangerous tree work
- Crown reductions
- Hedge line clearance
- Storm-damaged trees
- Timber processing
- Chainsaw work
Awkward trees handled
Tight gardens, trees near buildings, fences and roads. Sectional dismantling brings a tree down piece by piece where felling it whole isn’t an option.
More than the tree
Timber processed, brash cleared and, with machinery on hand, roots and stumps dug out. You aren’t left with a pile of wood and a hole to sort out.
Home or business
Residential gardens, farms, commercial sites and land. The same approach on every job: planned properly and finished properly.

Tree work questions
Can you take down a tree that’s close to a house?
Yes. Where there isn’t room to fell a tree whole, it’s climbed and taken down in controlled sections so nothing drops where it shouldn’t.
Do you deal with storm-damaged or dangerous trees?
Yes. Call 07397 042753 and tell us what’s happened, or send photos on WhatsApp so we can see the situation before we arrive.
What happens to the wood and brash?
Timber can be cut and processed on site and brash cleared away. Tell us what you’d like to keep when you ask for a quote and we’ll price the job around it.
Do I need permission before a tree comes down?
If a tree is covered by a Tree Preservation Order or stands in a conservation area, you’ll usually need consent from, or to give notice to, your local council first. It’s worth checking before booking. Ask us if you’re not sure where to start.

Land clearance across Devon
From overgrown to workable.
Overgrown plots, scrub, brash and neglected sites cleared properly, with chainsaws, excavators and dumpers working on the same job.
Difficult, messy sites are the job.
Abandoned gardens, scrub-covered fields, hedgelines that have taken over, building plots nobody has touched in years. This isn’t light garden tidying. It’s clearance with the machinery to deal with whatever is under the growth.
Instead of hiring a tree surgeon, a digger, a waste contractor and a groundworker separately, you get one crew that manages the whole process. Trees and scrub are cut, roots and stumps dug out, waste loaded and removed, and the ground left ready for building, landscaping or whatever comes next.
Related: tree work and machine work.

Land clearance questions
Do you take the waste away?
Waste removal is part of the service. Tell us what’s on site when you ask for a quote (green waste, timber, rubble, old fencing) so it’s included in the price.
How big a site can you clear?
From large overgrown gardens up to full plots and fields. Machinery is what makes bigger, heavier clearances practical. Send photos and a rough idea of the size and we’ll talk it through.
What if access to the site is tight?
Tell us the narrowest point on the way in when you get in touch. We plan the machinery and the approach around the access you have.
Can you get the ground ready for building or landscaping?
Yes. Clearance can finish with stumps and roots removed and the ground levelled and prepared, so the next trade can start straight away.
Other services
Machine work
Excavator, dumper and much more — operator included.
Digger and driver work across Devon. You get the machine and an experienced operator to run it.
The machine and the operator.
Excavator hire with an operator means you aren’t arranging delivery, signing hire paperwork or learning the controls on your own ground. We turn up with the kit, an experienced operator does the work, and the machine leaves when the job is done.
Trenches, ground reduction, levelling, stump and root excavation, moving muck and material around site: work that takes days by hand gets done properly and quickly by machine.
Related: land clearance and ground preparation for landscaping.

Operator included
Every machine comes with someone who knows how to use it. The quote covers the work, not your time spent getting the hang of a digger.
The right machine
Excavators for digging, trenching and levelling. Dumpers to move spoil and material across site. Chosen for the job and the access.
Part of a bigger job
Machine work combines with tree work, clearance and landscaping, so one contractor can take a site from start to finish.

Machine work questions
Is the operator included?
Yes. Every machine comes with an experienced operator. You don’t hire the machine and drive it yourself.
Do you take on smaller jobs?
Yes. A single trench, a stump dig-out or a day of levelling is fine. Call 07397 042753 to talk it through.
What happens to the spoil?
Spoil can be moved around site with a dumper, or loaded and taken away. Mention it in your enquiry so it’s included in the quote.
Can you work in a garden with narrow access?
Tell us the narrowest access point when you get in touch and we’ll plan the machinery around it.

Landscaping across Devon
Substantial outdoor projects built from the ground up: clearing, digging, levelling and draining, then building the finished space on top.
Built on ground that’s been done properly.
This isn’t garden maintenance. It’s landscape construction: taking an overgrown, uneven or badly draining space and turning it into something that works and lasts.
Most landscaping problems start underneath: poor levels, water with nowhere to go, ground that was never prepared. We handle the heavy end with machinery, so fencing, turf and hard landscaping go down on a solid, level, well-drained base.
Related: land clearance and machine work.
Landscaping we carry out
- Ground preparation
- Garden transformations
- Fencing
- Hedge work
- Turf preparation
- Levelling
- Excavation
- Drainage preparation
- Hard landscaping where applicable
- General landscape construction
Start from anything
A garden that got away, a new-build plot, a field corner. Clearance and landscaping can run as one job with one crew.
Groundwork first
Levels, drainage and preparation are done by machine and done properly, because that’s what decides how the finished job holds up.
Project work
We focus on substantial outdoor projects rather than regular maintenance rounds, so every job gets the time and kit it needs.

Landscaping questions
Can you start from a completely overgrown garden?
Yes. We can clear it first and move straight into levelling, drainage and the finished landscaping as one job.
Do you put up fencing?
Yes, fencing is part of our landscaping work. Send the rough length, the style you’re after and a few photos.
Do you lay patios and hard landscaping?
Hard landscaping is quoted job by job, depending on what’s involved. Send the details and photos and we’ll tell you what we can do.
Do you offer regular garden maintenance?
No. We focus on substantial projects: clearance, groundwork and landscape construction.

Commercial & domestic pressure washing
Driveways, patios and paths at home. Yards, concrete, industrial surfaces and building exteriors on commercial sites. Across Devon.
Surfaces cleaned back properly.
Same crew, same standard as the rest of our work: turn up when agreed, do the job properly and leave it finished. For homeowners that means driveways, patios, paths and block paving. For businesses it means yards, concrete and industrial surfaces, and the outside of buildings.
It also fits naturally at the end of a bigger job. Clear the site, finish the groundwork, then clean the hard surfaces so the finished job looks finished.
