Leicestershire and the surrounding counties contain some of the most significant private woodland, parkland and estate land in the Midlands. Managing trees and woodland on a substantial private estate requires a contractor who understands long-term stewardship — not just individual jobs.
A long-term partner, not a one-off contractor
We work with private landowners on rolling management programmes, returning to the same estate year after year. This continuity means we know the land, we understand the priorities of the owner, and we can deliver consistent results without the cost and disruption of bringing in a new contractor who needs to survey the whole estate from scratch.
What we offer estate clients
- Annual or multi-year woodland management programmes
- Parkland and amenity tree management, veteran trees, avenue trees, specimen planting
- Hedge management at scale, estate boundaries, game cover, historic hedgerows
- New woodland establishment and agro-forestry planting
- Tree Preservation Order advice and navigation, we have extensive experience with TPOs and Conservation Area requirements
- Timber extraction and coordination with the George Walker Group sawmill for quality felled material
The George Walker Group advantage
Because George Walker (Tree Care) Ltd is part of the wider George Walker Group — which includes George Walker Ltd (timber merchants and sawmill) and Belvoir Sawmill — we are able to take a genuinely integrated approach to estate woodland. Felled timber of suitable quality can be processed rather than simply chipped, potentially creating value from removal operations and reducing disposal costs.
