Everything a tree needs, from one crew.

Whether it is one overgrown conifer or a week of woodland thinning, the same qualified team turns up, works to BS3998, and clears up properly before it leaves.

Tree felling and dismantling

Rigged down in sections when there is no room to drop it. Sheds, greenhouses and next door's fence all stay where they are.

Crown reduction and pruning

Reductions, thinning, crown lifting and deadwooding that keep the tree's natural shape.

One of the ADF tipper trucks kitted out for the day's work An ADF team member beside the two woodchippers at the yard

A family firm, not a call centre.

Aaron Floyd started ADF in 2018 after thirteen years climbing for one of the biggest tree companies in Basingstoke. He came out of Merrist Wood with an Advanced National Diploma in Arboriculture and passed every NPTC City & Guilds ticket with a distinction.

Today that is two teams, a growing fleet, and the same person still answering the phone. When you book ADF you get the people in these photographs, not a subcontractor we found this morning.

More about us
ADF vehicles lined up with hazard lights on during a night callout

A tree comes down in the night. We pick up.

Storm damage does not keep office hours. We carry chainsaws, lighting towers and traffic management, and we have cleared roads at three in the morning for highways teams and homeowners alike. If something is blocking a road or leaning on a roof, ring the mobile.

“Such skilful work to open it up while keeping the mature trees as a beautiful natural frame.”
