Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our tree services in Glasgow and West Scotland, answered by our qualified tree surgeons and arborists
How much does commercial site clearance cost in Glasgow?
Commercial site clearance costs depend on site size and complexity, with larger projects priced per hectare. Factors affecting cost include vegetation density, access difficulty, waste disposal requirements, and any environmental restrictions.
We provide detailed quotes after site assessment, including all machinery, labour, and disposal costs. Emergency clearance or work requiring specialised equipment may cost more, but our comprehensive service eliminates hidden charges and subcontracting markups.
Do you handle protected species and environmental compliance during clearance?
Yes, we coordinate all environmental compliance including protected species surveys, seasonal restrictions, and SSSI work. Our team works within Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 requirements, timing clearance to avoid bird nesting season and coordinating with ecological consultants when protected species are present.
We implement protection measures for wildlife corridors, maintain buffer zones around sensitive areas, and provide documentation for planning compliance. All work meets environmental planning conditions and supports rather than hinders biodiversity objectives.
What equipment do you use for large-scale site clearance and access creation?
We use excavator-based and tractor-based equipment for mechanical vegetation management. Our work may require machinery such as forestry mulchers for heavily vegetated sites, excavators with attachments for larger clearance, and equipment capable of creating temporary roads and site access.
Can you clear sites for major development and construction projects?
Yes, we work with developers, construction companies, and infrastructure projects across Glasgow and West Scotland. Services include pre-construction clearance, planning condition discharge, coordination with other contractors, and meeting strict project timelines and budgets.
Our experience covers residential developments, commercial projects, infrastructure improvements, and utility installations. We coordinate with project managers, environmental consultants, and statutory bodies to ensure clearance work supports overall project success.
Do you provide vegetation clearance for utility companies and infrastructure?
We work with utility companies, railway operators, and infrastructure providers for vegetation management around power lines, transmission corridors, and development sites. This includes clearance techniques, coordination with operational requirements, and compliance with utility safety standards.
Our utility work covers power line clearance, pipeline corridors, road verges, and railway embankments. We understand operational constraints and safety requirements whilst delivering efficient vegetation management for infrastructure providers.
How do you handle invasive species removal during site clearance?
We're qualified to manage invasive species including Japanese knotweed, rhododendron, giant hogweed, and Himalayan balsam using mechanical removal, chemical treatment, and habitat restoration techniques. All invasive species work follows legal requirements and includes follow-up monitoring and treatment.
Our approach prevents spread during removal, ensures proper disposal of contaminated material, and implements restoration measures to prevent re-establishment. We coordinate with environmental consultants and provide documentation for regulatory compliance.

What Our Clients Have Said About Us
Jackie Breen
From the first time getting in touch with Callum, the service was fantastic, he came out gave us a great quote and was able to do the job very quickly. The boys that came to carry out the work were professional, friendly and worked non stop to get the job done, they were so careful with machinery on the property as well and left the garden and paths spotless before they left. I would highly recommend them.
Alan
Callum and his team arrived on the agreed day & time, carried out the tree felling with impeccable professionalism and cleared up after. The work was done at the quoted price and they were very pleasant guys with no bad language. I highly recommend CNJ and I will certainly be using Callum and his 5 star tree fellas again.
Robin Campbell
Callum and his team felled four 40-foot+ trees in our garden, facing particular challenges (2 trees hanging over our LPG tank, one menacing a precious rhododendron). They worked incredibly hard, were great to deal with and we would thoroughly recommend them.
