Cotswold Tree & Access was born as part of a realisation of a requirement for quality tree and ground services in the area. Starting as a humble two man team in 2016, the company has grown considerable over the past few years. We are now a team of 18 with fully qualified tree surgeons and an experienced ground team using the latest technology in both our domestic, commercial and forestry work. We value the environment and where possible all waste is chipped and sent for Biomass. We thoroughly enjoy what we do and working outdoors to promote the health and wellbeing of the landscape is a highly rewarding line of work.
Every day, for everyone, without exception.

In order for us to remain competitive, it is essential that we continue to find new and innovative ways to improve our products, services, and overall approach to doing business.
In today’s fast-paced world, expertise has become a crucial factor in the success of any business. It is the foundation upon which companies are built, the key differentiator in a competitive market, and the driving force behind innovation and growth. At our company, we understand the value of expertise, which is why we have invested in building a team of fully trained professionals. We take great pride in our team of experts who possess skills and knowledge that set them apart from others in the industry. Each member of our team has undergone rigorous training and has obtained relevant qualifications, making them experts in their field. This provides our clients with the assurance that their projects will be handled with the utmost care and precision, delivering high-quality results every time. One of the biggest factors that contribute to our team’s expertise is their NPTC training. NPTC, (National Proficiency Test Council), is a certification body that offers a wide range of qualifications in the land-based sector, including forestry. Our team has completed various NPTC courses, which have equipped them with the necessary skills and knowledge to handle complex tasks efficiently and effectively. Apart from NPTC training, we are also committed to providing ongoing health and safety training to our team. This is crucial as it not only ensures the safety of our employees but also promotes a culture of safety in the workplace. Our team is regularly updated on the latest health and safety regulations and procedures, and this dedication to ensuring their well-being translates into the quality of work they deliver. At our company, we also believe in investing in our staff’s development through apprenticeship programs. We recognize the value of cultivating new talent and providing opportunities for growth and learning. Our apprentices are mentored by experienced professionals, allowing them to acquire hands-on experience and develop essential skills. This not only benefits them but also adds to the expertise of our team as a whole. Having a fully trained team is not only beneficial for our clients but also for our business. It allows us to take on a diverse range of projects and adapt to the ever-changing needs of our clients. Our team’s expertise has also earned us a reputation for delivering exceptional results, building trust and long-lasting relationships with our clients.
