ABOUT US
TD Tree & Land Services Ltd is a long-established family business providing arboricultural services to the commercial and domestic markets. Our professional tree surgeon teams work across southern Scotland and northern England with bases throughout the area, including Edinburgh, Stirling and the Scottish Borders.
Tom Dixon started the company in Edinburgh in 2001. Since then it has grown from humble beginnings to a successful company running a number of independent teams and operating a huge range of equipment, machinery and plant. We are proud that our very first employee is still with the company after 20 years, and that we are one of the only arboricultural practices to employ female tree surgeons.
In 2015 we achieved the Arboricultural Association Approved Contractor Accreditation – the Gold standard for a tree surgery company. We are the only Arb Approved Tree Surgeon in Edinburgh and one of only a few companies in Scotland. By appointing an ARB Approved Contractor the client will receive the best quality tree care undertaken safely and efficiently. Find out more about why you should use an Arb Approved contractor.
