 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. McAuley Tree Surgeons were recommended to me and I have no hesitation in recommending them onward.  Very professional and obliging.  In our case the team took down a large dangerous tree alongside a major road.  They did so safely and without fuss.  Cleared up all the debris and left any logs in a stack for ourselves.  Will be getting them again next Spring.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We couldn’t recommend this team highly enough, Kieran, ably assisted by Robin, dealt with a locationally very difficult job with no room for mistakes due to the proximity a workshop. They were very obliging  and generous with their time and left the area cleared and tidy and the contract price was more than fair. Arnie.
