As far as I can remember, the last tree job here cost around £1000. That wasn’t felling a tree but for the removal of tree limbs that the guy we’d called for advice had said ought to come off to avoid possible problems with the house (he said the trees themselves were safe).

The job only took around an hour and my first thought was “wow, £1000 for that time”. But then I thought there were at least 3 people on the job, equipment included a chipper and a cherry picker and they left the garden tidy. I concluded that the cost was probably quite reasonable.
