Nicholsons core business for almost thirty years has been the cultivation and care of native British trees and the creation and management of traditional woodland.

Nicholsons assures a professional and efficient service, and our Forestry division is built on a team of highly qualified and experienced graduate Foresters and Arboriculturalists. Senior staff are members of the Institute of Chartered Foresters (ICF).

Caring for existing and long-established trees is all part of the service. At Nicholsons we are able to carry out all levels of tree maintenance and arboricultural operations including Duty of Care tree inspections, individual tree reports, pruning, crown thinning, crown reduction, felling and stump grinding.

Correct management is essential to the effective ownership of woodland, whether for maximising timber production or for the conservation of wildlife and the environment. Nicholsons has considerable experience in the management of woods and forests and can also offer advice on grant applications.

We offer a full contracting service relating to the planting and management of woodlands, trees and hedges. Nicholsons not only propagates a wide variety of traditional tree and hedgerow species, but also has the ability to prepare the land, plant and maintain the trees or hedgerow to ensure satisfactory establishment. Similarly, Nicholsons erects many different types of fence, including traditional post and rail, deer/stock fencing, gates, and top-quality cast-iron and steel.

Nicholsons operates mainly in Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Warwickshire, Berkshire, Gloucestershire and other surrounding counties, but has on occasion undertaken commissions outside the immediate area, including Northern Ireland and France.
