Frequently Asked Questions

Step 1: Send Micheal images of your garden from as many angles as possible. Please supply exact measurements and ideally have something like a ladder in the images to provide a scaled reference point. Don’t forget to measure the ladder exactly.

Micheal will then call you with some questions to clarify your requirements.

Step 2: Micheal will then arrange a visit to our nursery at a time that suits you. At the Nursery Micheal will advise you on appropriate options and you can see the trees. Directions. Please wear appropriate footwear e.g. Wellington boots.

Step 3: We visit and survey the site placing long poles based on our suggestions.

This will give you an idea of how each tree will look in the future. You can then view the positions from different viewing points and adjust the positions accordingly.

Step 4: Confirm the position of the particular trees through a consultative process over a week or so. This process ensures the trees are not too small or too big. This is where Micheal’s experience proves invaluable and where financial savings can be made.

Before we give you an answer we need to know the following: Approx. heights of trees required. Hint – to get the height place a ladder / timber length and look from your view points e.g. patio area, kitchen window and measure the suitable height. Do you need evergreen or deciduous? Does it need all year round cover? Bare in mind what you are trying to achieve. Evergreen is a lot more expensive.
