About Us

What we do

What we do

Welcome to Civilarb Contractors, where experienced tree surgery meets strategic vegetation management.

We are a proud family-run company rooted in trust, accountability, and a deep respect for nature.

Whether we're working beside high-speed rail lines or in quiet domestic gardens, our team brings expert precision and genuine care to every branch we manage.

Our core values

Our Visions and Values

Our Commitment.

We aim to be the industry leaders in arboriculture and beyond—setting the standard for safety, environmental responsibility, and customer-focused service.

We believe our success stems from the dedication, craftsmanship, and integrity of our team.

Each member plays a vital role in shaping our reputation through their hard work and pride in what they do.

We take full ownership of our actions and strive to deliver excellence in every service—whether we're climbing high canopies, clearing vegetation, or consulting on complex safety requirements. From root to crown, our work reflects our values, our community, and our commitment to a greener future.

Integrity

At the core of everything we do is a simple yet powerful promise—to operate with integrity.

We believe that true excellence in arboriculture comes not only from skill and experience but from consistently doing the right thing. Our integrity shines through in the way we:

  • 🌱 Build Trust – We communicate openly and honestly with clients, suppliers, and partners—no hidden agendas, no corner-cutting.

  • 🛠️ Take Responsibility – We own our outcomes and actions, welcoming feedback and making things right when needed.

  • 🚧 Lead by Example – From health and safety to environmental care, we uphold standards that others aspire to match.

  • 🧭 Stay Ethical – We treat people and nature with respect, protecting what matters most and doing what's right, even when no one’s watching.

Integrity is more than a word—it’s our way of working, our team culture, and the reason clients trust us to deliver time and time again.

Safety

Safety isn’t just a box we tick—it’s the heartbeat of how we operate.

Here’s how we lead with safety:

  • 🛡️ Zero-Compromise Culture We embed risk awareness into every project phase—no shortcuts, no assumptions. Every crew member is empowered to speak up, report concerns, and take action without hesitation.

  • 📋 Rigorous Standards & Training Our safety-critical roles are backed by robust training plans and competency tracking. From PPE inspections to climbing techniques, we monitor performance and refresh skills continually.

  • 🚧 Proactive Risk Management We perform detailed CoSHH and risk assessments tailored to our environments—whether it's tree surgery near live overhead cables or confined space vegetation clearance on the rail. We don’t wait for incidents to improve—we anticipate them.

  • 🤝 Care for People & Planet Our safety commitment extends beyond our team—to the communities we serve and the ecosystems we protect. Ethical conduct and environmental awareness are woven into every operation.

Innovation

Innovation fuels our progress—it’s how we evolve, adapt, and deliver smarter solutions in an ever-changing industry landscape.

From pioneering safety practices to reimagining client engagement, we challenge conventions to set new standards in tree care and beyond.

Here’s how we embody innovation every day:

  • 🔧 Smarter Solutions, Sharper Tools We evaluate and adopt new techniques, equipment, and digital systems that enhance efficiency, reduce risk, and raise quality.

  • 🔍 Continuous Improvement Culture We don’t settle for “how it’s always been done.” Every project is an opportunity to trial better processes, streamline documentation, and refine safety protocols.

  • ✨ Creative Branding & Communication Whether it’s refining our logo, crafting industry-relevant visuals, or tailoring service descriptions for diverse audiences—we blend operational strategy with creative insight.

  • 🌱 Sustainability Through Innovation Our commitment to environmental care pushes us to explore low-impact methods, repurpose waste, and embrace greener technologies that support biodiversity.

  • 📈 Future-Proofing the Business Through strategic investment planning, policy development, and risk forecasting, we build resilience that keeps us agile in dynamic markets.

Excellence

At Civilarb, excellence is a mindset, a habit, and a promise. It drives our workmanship, our customer care, and the way we lead in high-risk, high-responsibility sectors. From the rigours of our risk assessments to the polish of our branding, every touchpoint reflects a dedication to doing things right.

Here’s how we make excellence tangible:

  • 🛠️ Professional Precision Every operation—from tree climbing to roadside vegetation clearance—is executed with discipline, thorough planning, and compliance at its core.

  • 🧠 Expertise with Accountability Our policies, CoSHH assessments, and service strategies aren’t just well-written—they’re crafted with insight, evidence, and a respect for industry best practice.

  • 🎨 Attention to Detail From sharp logos to clear service descriptions, our presentation reflects our standards. Design isn't fluff—it’s a reflection of our professionalism.

  • 🗣️ Client-Centric Communication We speak clearly, deliver consistently, and tailor our offerings to the domestic and commercial audiences we serve. Excellence means clarity, not complexity.

  • 🔄 Reflect, Refine, Repeat Continuous learning underpins our drive. Through feedback, incident reviews, and performance tracking, we sharpen our approach every step of the way.
