ARB Approved tree surgery for domestic and commercial clients

Trusted Arborists Working Across Nine Mile Burn

Thomson Trees Ltd provides professional tree surgery and arboricultural services throughout Nine Mile Burn and the surrounding rural areas of Midlothian and the Scottish Borders. We support homeowners, farms, estates and commercial landowners with safe, well-managed tree work carried out to a consistently high standard.

Nine Mile Burn sits in an exposed, upland setting where mature roadside trees, shelterbelts and boundary planting are regularly subjected to strong winds and challenging ground conditions. We are experienced in assessing wind-loaded trees, managing declining specimens and carrying out controlled dismantling where space is limited or access is restricted.

Our teams undertake everything from routine tree pruning and hedge maintenance through to full tree removal, rapid-response storm damage clearance and larger-scale site clearance. Where required, we also provide specialist lifting solutions through our forestry plant hire division to safely remove larger timber in controlled sections.

For clients requiring professional guidance, we offer detailed advice and reporting via our tree consultancy services, assisting with tree surveys, risk assessments and management planning.

Thomson Trees Ltd is an ARB Approved Contractor, meaning our work is independently audited for safety, quality and compliance. We are also FISA members, SSIP accredited, CHAS accredited and TrustMark accredited. Our operations are underpinned by clear health and safety procedures and robust environmental standards, supported by our environmental policy, wildlife and ecology policy and biosecurity policy.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is the second time I have engaged Thomson Trees to undertake major tree work in my garden. Just like the first time the crew were very polite, safety aware and carried out a very professional job.  They cleared up the site after taking down 3 very large willows and left the cut wood in neat piles. I would highly recommend Thomson Trees for any tree work.

From the quote with Peter to the removal of Eucalyptus tree from our garden with the two guys that’s that’s carried out the work (sorry I didn’t catch their names)  it was a great efficient service. My 3year old enjoyed watching the tree come down and was in awe of the guys working. Thank you and would highly recommend ☺️
