Credentials that count

Combined with our ARB Approved Contractor status and SafeContractor Approval, our credentials satisfy the pre-qualification requirements of most public and private sector procurement frameworks.
Experience that matters
George Walker has been at the root of tree care in Leicestershire since 1953. Over seventy years of continuous trading means we have worked through changes in legislation, technology and industry best practice, and we have passed that knowledge through generations of skilled arborists who still work for us today.
