Hedge Cutting

Site Clearence – Before being able to start work on a specific plot, there was many large trees that needed felling. Spoke to Dave @ Highfield, thankfully he was able to do it to our schedule and carried out a very neat and professional job. Would use Dave’s service again. Abortists fully qualified and insured also which is nice to see.

Frequently Asked Questions

What areas of Wigan do you cover?

Our tree surgeons provide full coverage across the entire Wigan borough and surrounding areas, including Standish, Aspull, Billinge, Orrell, Hindley, and Leigh. If you are unsure if we cover your location, just give us a call!

Are your tree surgeons fully qualified and insured?

Yes. Every member of the Highfield team is an NPTC-qualified arborist. We carry comprehensive Public Liability and Employers’ Liability insurance, giving you total peace of mind while we work on your property. All our work is carried out to the BS3998:2010 British Standard.

Do I need permission from Wigan Council to cut down my tree?

It depends on whether your tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or if your property is within a Conservation Area. As part of our service, we can check these details with the local authority for you and handle the necessary paperwork to ensure all work is legally compliant.

How much does tree surgery in Wigan cost?

Because every job is unique—varying by tree size, species, and location—we don’t offer “flat rates.” Instead, we provide free, no-obligation site visits and written quotes. This ensures you get an accurate, fair price with no hidden surprises.

Do you provide emergency tree removal after a storm?

Absolutely. We offer a rapid-response emergency service in Wigan for dangerous trees or storm-damaged branches that pose an immediate risk to your home or power lines. You can contact us 24/7 for emergency assistance.

Will you take away the waste and debris?

Yes. We pride ourselves on leaving every site spotless. We use professional-grade wood chippers to process branches into mulch, and we can remove all logs or leave them for you to use as firewood—the choice is yours.
