At Beechwood Trees & Landscapes Ltd, we've spent more than 26 years building a reputation based on professionalism, technical excellence and outstanding customer service.

More Than 26 Years of Professional Tree Care
Founded in 1998 by Managing Director Simon Rotheram, Beechwood Trees & Landscapes has grown from a local tree surgery business into one of the UK's most respected arboricultural contractors.
Despite our growth, one thing has never changed.
Our commitment to delivering safe, professional and environmentally responsible tree work.
Every project, regardless of size, is approached with the same attention to detail, planning and professionalism.
Whether we're pruning a single tree in a private garden or delivering a large-scale vegetation management programme for a local authority, our objective remains the same:
Deliver exceptional work safely, professionally and sustainably.
National Award-Winning Arboricultural Excellence
Many companies describe themselves as industry leaders.
Very few have the independent recognition to prove it.
🏆 Arboricultural Contractor of the Year
Beechwood was proud to be recognised as Arboricultural Contractor of the Year at the prestigious Pro Landscaper Business Awards.
This award is one of the highest accolades within the landscaping and arboricultural industries, recognising businesses that demonstrate excellence across every area of their operation.

Customer service
Leadership
Investment in people
Business performance
Winning this award wasn't about one outstanding project—it reflected over two decades of consistently raising standards across our entire business.
🌿 Sustainability Award Winners
Looking after trees also means looking after the environment.
Our commitment to sustainability has also been recognised nationally through winning the Sustainability Award for an Arboricultural Contractor.
Environmental responsibility influences every decision we make.
We continually invest in:
Recycling timber into biomass
Reusing timber wherever possible
Modern fuel-efficient machinery
Sustainable working methods
Environmental management systems
Waste reduction
Tree planting initiatives
For us, sustainability isn't marketing.
It's simply good arboriculture.
An ARB Approved Contractor – The Gold Standard
There is one accreditation that stands above all others within UK arboriculture.
The Arboricultural Association ARB Approved Contractor Scheme.
This is widely recognised as the benchmark for professional tree surgery.
To achieve Approved Contractor status, businesses undergo comprehensive independent assessment covering every aspect of their operation.
Maintaining this accreditation requires continual external auditing.
It's not awarded once.
It's earned year after year.
Very few tree surgery companies achieve this standard.
Even fewer maintain it consistently.

That's why safety is embedded into every decision we make.
Every project begins with:
Site-specific Risk Assessments
Detailed Method Statements
Dynamic Risk Assessments
Daily Briefings
Emergency Planning
Every member of our team receives continual training and development.
Our equipment is regularly inspected in accordance with LOLER and PUWER requirements, while our internal auditing programme ensures standards remain consistently high.

What Makes a Great Tree Surgery Company?
Choosing a tree surgeon shouldn't be based solely on price.
Before appointing any contractor, ask:
Are they an ARB Approved Contractor?
Are they fully insured?
Do they provide written Risk Assessments and Method Statements?
Are they independently audited?
Do they invest in staff training?
Can they demonstrate experience on similar projects?
Are they environmentally responsible?
Do they have genuine client testimonials?
If the answer to any of these questions is "no", you should think carefully before proceeding.
