I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Charlie and Mario for the fantastic job they did this morning. They were brilliant. I’ll definitely have the lovely Charlie and Mario back at some point to have the eucalyptus tree removed and stump grinded.

Thank you to the two guys who came out to do the work, they were professional and friendly. The fence looks a lot better now than my attempts at fixing parts myself. Thank you also for leaving it tidy and taking the old bits away too.

The tree surgeons have just left and we are thrilled with the results. They were both very professional and respectful and we appreciated their caution at this time. We would certainly recommend Elite to others and were pleased that we found you on Which Trusted Traders.

Peter Rodwell - Customer

Elite carried out both fencing and tree work for us. The fencing work consisted of approximately 50 metres of new fencing and the removal of a 15m high Holly tree along with stump grinding ready for fresh planting during the spring. Really happy with the final result the team were friendly and made sure everything was left tidy afterwards. Work was competitively priced and clearly a professional business.

Nikki Zenonos - Customer

Elite Trees replaced my rear fence for me. They were very efficient and friendly from the quoting stage all the way through to finishing the job. Fence looks great and I would not hesitate in recommending them.

I would like to commend the team that did the work last Tuesday in absolutely ghastly weather, they were so diligent and carried out all the work efficiently and expertly. My wife has written a glowing reference on the local Suffolk business social media. We will definitely use Elite Trees again next time we need some tree work carried out.
