Ivy Removal and Pruning Service
Ivy is a gorgeous addition to any garden and a fantastic way to create stunning feature walls you can enjoy for years to come. A fast-growing and brittle plant, ivy requires regular and professional pruning to keep it looking its best. Without maintenance, it can quickly become unmanageable and eventually require complete removal if not professionally tended.
Ivy Removal
Ivy is the perfect decorative plant for adding character to your garden. However, if not regularly maintained, it can severely damage walls and roof materials when left to grow unchecked. Invasive roots can weaken brick and allow moisture to penetrate, which aggravates the problem. We can advise you on any potential building damage caused by your plant and can either completely remove it or regularly maintain it through our ivy pruning service.
Depending on the wall or roof surface, various species of ivy can leave lasting marks on your brickwork — we will always be fully transparent about how the removal will affect the look of your building, allowing you to make an informed decision before moving forward. We cannot offer painting or roughcasting services, but our team will let you know if this is likely to be required following the removal.
