About the Arbor Barber

Qualified & experienced

We’ve been caring for trees in Sussex since 2004. Our lead arborist, Iain Palmer, has 20 years experience in tree surgery, tree care and managing tree maintenance teams.  Iain has his Royal Forestry Society Certificate in Arboriculture, and every other member of our team is qualified to at least NPTC standards.

Knowing how to cut back or fell a tree is one thing, but understanding when that’s the best option is another which comes with experience. We keep up to date with new techniques, and always consider the laws and best practice for managing and working with trees

We ensure that all our climbers and ground workers uphold our high standards of tree care, safety and customer service. Above all, we are a friendly and close-knit team that take pride in our work.

Fully insured

We have public liability coverage  up to £10 million, and employers’ liability coverage up to £10 million.

Punctuality

We arrive when we say we will. If we get held up for any reason at all, we’ll let you know as soon as possible.

Tidiness

We take care throughout any job. We take everything we cut down away with us (if you want us to, of course) and leave the area as tidy as when we arrived.
