Tree surgery is skilled, safety-critical work. The wrong cut, or a tree felled without proper planning, can damage property, injure people, or cause long-term harm to a tree that could have been saved. With over 15 years of experience, Alexander at Forth Tree Garden Landscaping carries out all work personally, with the knowledge and care the job demands.

Based in Alva, FK12, we provide tree surgery services across Stirling, Alloa, Falkirk, and all of Clackmannanshire. For most customers in this area, we can attend within 2 to 5 working days, with emergency callouts prioritised for dangerous situations.

Tree Surgery Services Across Stirling and Clackmannanshire

Forth Tree Garden Landscaping covers the full Central Scotland area from our base in Alva, FK12. We carry out all tree surgery work with full public liability insurance, and Alexander will advise you honestly on the right course of action for your trees, including whether any planning consents are needed before work begins.

This matters more than many homeowners realise. Councils in Clackmannanshire and Stirling both maintain lists of Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs). Cutting or felling a protected tree without permission can result in a significant fine, regardless of whether the tree is on your own property. Alexander checks this before advising on any job.

Why Use a Local Tree Surgeon?

A local tree surgeon who knows Central Scotland understands the species common to the area, the relevant planning rules, and the challenges posed by Scotland’s climate and growing conditions. After more than 15 years working in gardens across this area, that means better advice, faster response times, and a tradesman who is accountable to the local community.

Forth Tree Garden Landscaping’s work comes largely through recommendation, customers in Alva, Stirling, Alloa and Falkirk who tell friends and neighbours about the job Alexander did in their garden. That reputation matters, and it shows in the standard of every job.

FAQs

Common Questions

Do I need planning permission to have a tree removed in Stirling or Clackmannanshire?
It depends on the tree's location and whether it is protected. Trees covered by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or in a Conservation Area require prior approval from the council. Alexander will check this for you and advise before any work starts.
How much does a tree surgeon cost in Stirling?
Tree surgery pricing depends on the size of the tree, complexity of the job, and access to the site. Every job is different, so Alexander provides free, no-obligation estimates after a site visit. Call 07826 663107 to arrange yours.
How long does tree surgery take?
Most jobs are completed in a single day. Larger or more complex projects may require two days. Alexander will give you a clear timeframe when he provides your estimate.
Do you clear up after tree work?
Yes, always. All brash, logs and debris are cleared from site as standard. You will not be left with a pile of wood to deal with.
Are you insured for tree surgery?
Yes. We carry full public liability insurance for all tree surgery work across Stirling, Alloa, Falkirk and Clackmannanshire.
How quickly can you attend?
For standard jobs we can usually attend within 2 to 5 working days. For dangerous or storm-damaged trees, we prioritise emergency callouts.
