Why are Creepers, Climbers and Ivy a problem?
Few are aware that year on year, creepers, climbers and ivy cause vast amounts of costly damage to properties right across the United Kingdom every year.
While it’s true that they can bring a particular element of classic style and tradition to a property, the potential damage they can cause is something that you must not ignore.
Some examples of the issues that can arise from unmanaged climbers, creepers and ivy include:
- Penetration and damage to pointing and brickwork
- Movement or damage to soffits, fascias and guttering
- The weakening and accelerated rotting of wooden elements such as window frames, external beams or doors
- Movement and damage to roof tiles or roofing
These issues, either individually or combined, often lead to leaks and damp problems which can cost a significant amount to put right.

FEEDBACK FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
Testimonials
Oliver Foreman was excellent. He arrived on time every day, was polite and responsive to questions and requests for extra work while on site. He and the men who worked for him cleared away completely before leaving each day. Most importantly, the quality of the tree felling, hedge cutting, general shrub and stump removal was first class. I cannot recommend Foremans Tree Specialists more highly.
Oliver and his team turned up on time worked hard all day in a small garden taking two 30ft conifers down. Clean tidy and very efficient highly recommend them.
Excellent prompt response to my enquiry. Arrived to assess work at the exactly promised time, submitted quote within 24 hours. Work done on mutually agreed date and to our complete satisfaction. Would certainly use Oliver’s services again and can fully recommend them.
Oliver and his colleague did an outstanding job on the silver birch in my back garden, it now has a good shape to it and now lets a lot more sunlight onto my lawn, which is just what I needed. They also removed the ivy which was slowly choking the tree.
Did a fantastic job on my damson tree. Left it with a beautiful round shape and cut back some larger branches in a way that will ensure it will grow back into a lovely shape. Left garden clean and tidy. Nice guys. Will be using again.
Super friendly and competent tree surgeon. I Will definitely use him again in future…he even left the garden tidier than when he arrived!
We got 3 quotes which were all very similar. We are very pleased with our choice. Most impressed with the work ethic, it was a big job with some very large trees to remove which took 3 days to complete. They were completely undeterred by the torrential rain on the second day, managed to Keep working and the job was finished on time. We will be using them again.
Oliver and his team did an excellent job of felling a large leylandii tree from my garden. His price was very competitive, he was quick to answer questions by email, and turned up to do the job promptly. The tree was taken down in sections over two days, all the waste material was removed and the guys did a thorough job of cleaning the site afterwards. Highly recommended.
Really nice guy, would definitely recommend and use again.
Oliver made an excellent job of cutting our tree. He was very knowledgeable and I was very confident he knew what he was doing. I cannot wait to see how the tree responds to this trim in the spring! There were a lot of cuttings to dispose of and he even “hoovered” the lawn afterwards! A very tidy job well priced, and would definitely use him again.
Excellent job, very knowledgeable, skilful and helpful. Was prepared to wait for the right season to work, according to the trees we were dealing with. Punctual, tidy & efficient. Would have no hesitation in asking them back for further work and have already recommended to neighbours! Thanks :)
All you need, quotes an acceptable price, turns up on time, does a great job and clears up both my garden and my neighbours. Many thanks for a job well done. Will certainly retain your number.
