tree surgery & arboricultural services in Dunbar

Thomson Trees Ltd provides professional tree surgery and arboricultural services throughout Dunbar and the surrounding East Lothian coastline, supporting homeowners, rural estates, commercial premises and managing agents with safe, carefully planned tree work.

Working in Dunbar presents a unique set of conditions. Coastal exposure, strong prevailing winds and salt-laden air can accelerate decline in certain species and increase the likelihood of structural failure during storms. Our teams regularly assess and manage wind-loaded trees, boundary planting and mature specimens in exposed gardens and open ground, ensuring risks are properly controlled while preserving long-term tree health.

We carry out everything from routine pruning and hedge maintenance through to complex sectional dismantling, rapid-response emergency tree work and larger-scale vegetation clearance. Work is delivered with a strong emphasis on methodical site planning, safe systems of work and leaving properties tidy and usable.

For clients requiring technical input, we also provide professional advice through our tree consultancy and reporting services, assisting with surveys, risk assessments and arboricultural guidance where required.

Thomson Trees Ltd is an ARB Approved Contractor, meaning our operations are independently assessed for safety, quality and compliance. We are also FISA members, SSIP accredited, CHAS accredited and TrustMark accredited, with clear policies covering health and safety, environmental management, wildlife and ecology and biosecurity.
