Trees and gardens in Berkhamsted

Berkhamsted sits in a steep Chiltern valley, and its gardens climb the slopes on both sides of the High Street. The big Victorian and Edwardian houses on Shootersway, Kings Road and around the castle carry beech, oak, cedar and yew that have been growing for well over a century.

Up towards Berkhamsted Common and the Ashridge woods the trees get bigger still, and in Northchurch and Potten End you find long rural plots with hedgerow oaks, overgrown laurel and conifer screens.

Berkhamsted sits about 5 miles from our Hemel Hempstead base as the crow flies.

Council permission in Berkhamsted

Dacorum Borough Council handles tree preservation orders in Berkhamsted, and the town has a large conservation area covering the historic centre and the older residential streets. Much of the land round the town is in the Chilterns National Landscape. Big old trees here are often protected, so we check the council's records before quoting.

Getting the work done in Berkhamsted

Berkhamsted's hillside gardens are steep, terraced and often reached by narrow steps, which is exactly where sectional dismantling with ropes earns its keep. Parking on the High Street and the roads near the station is tight, so we plan where the chipper goes before the day.

Horse chestnut reduced, shape and timing

A1 Majestic tree care Carried out very impressive work in reducing our huge Horse Chestnut tree. The shape they cut was beautiful, their work very tidy and the guys were super helpful, friendly and professional. They truly cared for the tree''s welfare too and would only cut at a certain time to avoid shock and risk of infection for the tree. Everything cut down was taken away and left spotless. So happy. Highly recommend this company. You'll be glad you used them. The regrowth has been so good too We will be using them again for sure. Thank you Martin and team

Careful with the rest of the garden

The tree surgery service provided by this company was excellent. We had a very speedy reply to our request for a quotation, which after given and accepted was carried out without delay. The work done by Mr Cash and his team was first rate, they operated quickly and efficiently while still taking care not to do any damage to any other parts of our garden. After the job was done the clean up of sawdust and debris was very efficient and we were left feeling happy and satisfied. All in all, it was a pleasure to do business with A1 Majestic.

Questions we get asked

Tree surgery in Berkhamsted: your questions answered

Are a lot of trees in Berkhamsted protected?

The conservation area covers a large part of the town and many big trees carry tree preservation orders. We check with Dacorum's records for your address before the work is booked.

Can you take down a tree in a steep Berkhamsted garden?

Yes. On steep, terraced plots a climber dismantles the tree in sections and lowers each one on ropes, so nothing rolls down the slope.

Do you work near Berkhamsted Common and Ashridge?

Yes, including the big gardens that back onto the Common and the Ashridge woodland.

Are you insured?

Yes. A1 Majestic Tree Care is fully insured and certified, and our team is vetted, approved and fully qualified.

Do you take all the waste away?

Yes. Brash is chipped on site and taken away with the logs, unless you want the logs left stacked. Lawns, paths and drives are swept before we leave.

Emailed Martin with a picture of the job for a high level estimate and he was extremely responsive as he replied within 2 hrs (a competitor who I had contacted took 2 days to respond so I did not even ask them to counter quote). On the basis his quote was reasonable I asked Martin to do the job. His 4 colleagues came over within 48 hrs and completed the job. All very polite, no nonsense, efficient and tidy. Very pleased with job and a great team to deal with. Certainly would use again as great customer experience and quality job! Thanks to a1 majestic
