They also had an amazing quote and booking system. So, I knew how much it was going to cost, when they were going to be there etc. I would HIGHLY recommend! Plus they had a female team member who was really cool - they didn't just hire guys. Thanks so much."

"There is a reason why I have used the Hardfell team a few times now, excellent work completed by the crew, highly efficient, highly skilled, safe and willing to do/go the extra mile yet again. The crew turned up on time, were extremely friendly, respectable, checked in often to see if i was happy with what was being completed throughout the day - They also had great banter! They left the property in a clean and tidy manor. Will definitely continue to use their services in future - Plenty more pines to be dropped!!

"Exceptional service. We had 3 very large trees and a few smaller ones right next to our house that we needed cut down fairly urgently before we could finish renovations on our roof. Shaun was at our place within a few hours of my initial phone call. He assessed and quoted the job on the spot, and returned the next day with another team member to complete it. They were polite, professional, and the trees landed exactly where we'd planned. They took care not to damage anything else in the surrounding area and garden, and took care when driving their vehicle on our lawn. Quality job done at a great price. Highly recommend them and I will definitely be using them again in the future."

"Shaun and his team removed a tree broken in a storm. It was a challenging and quite technical job next to a road with telephone lines and 2 fences in very close proximity. They disassembled the tree using ropes and avoided damage to any of the obstructions. The real skill and understanding of physics the team showed was truly impressive and looked more like art form than hard physical effort. The price was also very competitive. I have had this team here before on simpler jobs and will certainly call them again."

"After hearing rave reviews on the radio from Peter Wolfcamp, referring to the great work Shaun and the team had carried for him. I decided to get a quote and give them a try.
I got Shaun and his team of men to trim and remove dead branches from my large Pohutukawa tree. Also to clear power lines for safety. Prior to the work commencing a detailed conversation was held to confirm the work needed and to make sure I was fully informed. The arborists were meticulous and professional. All safety precautions were carried out as the tree was near a public pathway. I requested some of the dead branches for my fireplace, these were cut to size and stacked neatly for me. My section was left very clean and tidy, all branches mulched and removed.
I was so pleased with my tree after the work was completed as it looks neat and tidy and it’s difficult to see where the branches have been removed. Thanks to Shaun and the 3 men that attended my job. I would 100% recommend Hardfell Ltd."

"It was purely by chance that I found Hardfell Ltd., as I had noticed them over a couple of days that they were at my kid's school. I am so glad I got their information, because not only did Luke promptly come out to provide a quote for multiple trees that needed a variety of work done, ranging from removal, topping, and pruning, the quote was also rather competitive, especially given that Hardfell Ltd is licensed in comparison to the other companies that I received quotes from. The process from start (generation of the quote + updating the quote) to finish (completion of work + tidy up) was absolutely seamless. On the day of the job, the work crew showed up on time, was careful and thorough with the work to be performed, checked in with me to see if it was to my satisfaction, answered the multiple questions I asked, and left everything practically spotless. Backend communication was also courteous and prompt. I will definitely utilise this company in the future, and highly recommend Hardfell Ltd., if you need to get any sort of tree work done."

"I had a pretty urgent situation when a HUGE, old tree blew partially over in a storm. The tree had tipped over and was braced and balancing on one of its own branches and was threatening to take out a whole fence line here on our farm. Hardfell was super quick to respond to messages and provided excellent advice - it was decided the job needed to be done sooner than later and Shaun literally showed up minutes later!!! I was super impressed! the work was down efficiently and to high standard - the tree came down safely and in a way that completely saved the fence line! Having the job done so efficiently meant I could get back to work as usual here on the farm knowing the job was taken care of professionally !!"

We had emergency works needed and everything is rectified less than 24 hours later.

Added bonus is our garden is tidier than it was before they came, and they even fixed and sharpened our old chainsaw on their lunchbreak! Highly, highly recommend."

It was a tricky job, involving lowering branches with a fence, garden shed, shade house with brittle roof, and a glass house immediately underneath.

"We were very impressed with Ron and Bobby. They turned up when they said they would. Their were workmanship is second to none! Given the proximity to the house and the fact there was a fence below the trees, there was zero damage. It was awesome watching Bobby trim the trees as he swung through the trees like a spider monkey with a chainsaw. That being said, it is very obvious that they take health and safety very seriously.
We now have so much light into that end of the house, and I can finally watch the ducks in the pond from the kitchen.
It gives me such pleasure every time I come down our drive, seeing how level the trees are - I cannot believe the boys didn't use a spirit level!
We were so happy with the Hardfell team that we've used them a couple more times since, including their stump grinding services. The stumps ranged in size from a small plate to small table, neither were an issue for the team. And once again they left the site clean and tidy."
