What we do

Tree work for homeowners, explained in plain English.

Tree removal & felling
Taking a tree down safely, whether there is open space to drop it or we need to dismantle it section by section over a roof, fence or greenhouse.
Crown reduction & pruning
Reducing the height and spread of a tree while keeping its natural shape, so you get light back without losing the tree.
Deadwooding
Removing dead, broken or hanging branches from a mature tree before they come down on their own.
Stump grinding
Grinding a stump out below ground level so you can re-turf, plant or lay a patio over the top.
Hedge trimming & reduction
Annual trims to keep a hedge sharp, or a hard reduction to bring an overgrown one back under control.
Storm damage & emergency clearance
Trees down on drives, roofs, fences and roads. We answer the phone around the clock.

Before & after

Ivy stripped from a courtyard wall and roof, all growth removed and the ground swept.

Why homeowners call us

Local and reachable
We work across Essex, Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire, and the phone is answered 24 hours a day — including after a storm.
Safety first, every job
NPTC-qualified climbers, proper rigging and full insurance. Where a tree can't simply be felled, we dismantle it in sections.
Clear pricing before we start
We look at the job, explain the options in plain language and quote a price. No pressure, and no surprises on the day.
We clean up properly
Brash chipped, timber removed or stacked as logs if you want them, and the ground raked and swept before we leave.

"Best our trees have ever looked. Absolutely fantastic job by Adnan and his colleague. Cleared everything away after completing the job and left our much loved garden tidy."

"I would highly recommend Happy Branches. Afnan and team did a great job felling and eco plugging three sycamore trees for us. He was friendly, easy to work with."

"Afnan and his team did a really great job of trimming our very overgrown hedges. They were really lovely to work with, turned up early and left the garden spotless - can't fault them. We'll definitely be using them again."
