Accreditations

Arb Approved Maydencroft Limited is an Arboricultural Association Approved Contractor.

ArbAC is a national tree surgery competence accreditation scheme operated by the Arboricultural Association, a national tree-care industry body which requires the contractor to meet 65 detailed criteria points covering four key areas:

• High standards of work and tree knowledge

• Uncompromising approach to Health and Safety, and competent working practices

• Comprehensive record keeping and efficient administrative procedures

• High quality customer care

The accreditation exhaustively tests all aspects of a tree-care business’s operation and management, and most importantly, it tests the business at the ‘sharp end’ by visiting work sites and assessing work-in-progress.

Contractors are reassessed and retested every two years.

National Hedgelaying Society Logo

As members of the National Hedge Laying Society we have skilled people who are able to do hedge laying using the traditional techniques.

Left unmanaged a hedgerow will continue to grow upwards and outwards and will eventually become a line of trees.
