Risk assessments
03
PiCUS sonic tomograph
If you can see fungal fruiting bodies or cavities in your tree, a PiCUS test reveals the extent of decay within. Teamed with a report and visual assessment, it allows an informed decision on any remedial works. Sensors placed around the stem measure the velocity of sound waves through the wood, producing a colour tomograph showing the consistency of the wood within — and whether decay is present.

Customer feedback
Trusted across South Lincolnshire.
A job well done “We had 6 trees removed, including a large willow. All the wood was stacked neatly for us and cut into fire-sized logs. The whole area was left clean and tidy. They discussed the plan of action with us and did exactly what they said they would. The team had great work ethics, were friendly, professional and offered experienced advice — overall we were highly impressed and would have no hesitation in recommending this company for further work, regardless of the job size.”
Excellent service “From quoting to completing, this company was efficient, professional, safe, clean and tidy, friendly, polite, co-operative and appreciative (of coffee). I would recommend them to anyone wanting any tree surgery. The workforce was second to none — what a great bunch of guys. Thanks for your services and a fantastic job.”
Ash tree “I had need of professional help to sort out an ash tree that had not been touched for at least 30 years and now stood 60 feet to the top. No way was it a DIY job! They came, weighed up the job and gave me a price which was very reasonable. The work team was very efficient, worked hard all through the job and left me with a safe and tidy tree. At the end of the job the site was left spick and span and I have a year’s supply of logs!”
The Deepings School “I first saw Arb-Core working when Lincolnshire County Council’s contractor was undertaking some work at our school, and I was very impressed by the way the team worked. I have since employed them twice on behalf of the school. On both occasions they proved competitive on price, extremely helpful, courteous and very efficient. They left the site totally clean, and organised the traffic management required for safe working by the adjacent road. I would thoroughly recommend Arb-Core without exception.”
Fantastic, fast and professional “Terry came to see us and provided a quotation within an hour of us calling. His team were back a couple of days later to remove one tree and then came back a week later to remove a huge tree and grind the stump for us. The team is so friendly and professional, I cannot praise them enough.”
Amazing team “Wow, what a great, efficient service — thank you! It was a pleasure to watch a team that worked perfectly and carefully together. They worked tidily, no mess left and safe practices. Terry was quick with the quote; by lunch time the following day the tree was gone. Hardly a splinter left behind. I highly recommend these guys.”
Excellent work “The Arb-Core team have just completed felling our huge willow tree situated on a bank and very close to our house. They also reduced our very tall conifer hedge. Both jobs were carried out extremely efficiently, professionally and fast, and the site was left clean and tidy. This is the second time we have used them — the lads were a joy to have on the property.”
Prompt, polite and professional “I noticed the Arb-Core team working in my village and thought just how professional they were, so when I needed a couple of trees removed from my garden I did not hesitate to call them for advice. After a short meeting the team turned up a few days later and provided services to the highest standards. Highly recommended!”
