Firewood Sales
Our seasoned hardwood logs are an excellent way of keeping your home warm in winter. All the logs that we sell have been locally sourced from trees that have been taken down in and around the Lancashire & West Yorkshire area. From trees being dismantled in residential gardens, to trees being felled on woodland projects, we process all of the hardwood into quality logs. The unsuitable timber that can’t be processed into logs goes for biomass, along with our woodchip.

What people are saying
“Matthew came out to see me about a job on some protected trees in the grounds of a large property that were growing over onto our house. It was a bit of a complicated process with the council, and I was struggling to get an arborist to go through the procedures and paperwork, and was repeatedly let down. Matthew did everything he said would, and today came and did a splendid job trimming back the trees with his colleague. I can’t fault him in anyway whatsoever. A definite recommend from start to finish. Thanks Matthew.”
“Matt was quick to turn up to quote for the job, his price was competitive and he was prompt to return to complete the work, texting beforehand to confirm. Matt and his team did a great job removing a long stretch of 7ft high hedges and left the site spotless afterwards. Highly recommended.”
“Great service from Matthew! He came to give us a quote straight away, understood exactly what we needed .... taking the height & weight from large tree to improve sunlight in garden ... booked us in as soon as he could, arrived as promised & job done with no mess left behind. Would strongly recommend Matthew & sure we will be calling on his services again. Thank you”
