Specialist Excavator Tree Services in Devon & Somerset

One Machine. Endless Possibilities.

At Curtis Tree Services, we offer Specialist Excavator Tree Services designed to transform how tree work, site clearance, and land management are delivered across Devon and Somerset.

Our 2.7-tonne excavator, operated by a qualified tree surgeon, handles a wide range of tasks quickly, safely, and cost-effectively—often completing in a single visit what would usually take multiple contractors.

Why Our Specialist Excavator Service Stands Out

Traditional tree work and site clearance can involve several teams, multiple machines, and days of coordination.

Our compact, powerful excavator with interchangeable specialist attachments offers a faster, simpler solution—all in one professional package.

Clients across Devon and Somerset choose us for:

  • Reduced labour costs

  • Faster project completion

  • Minimal disruption to sites

  • High-quality, tidy results

Professional Attachments Available

Our excavator can be equipped with a range of specialist attachments to suit the job:

Log Grab
Lifts, stacks, and moves timber with ease—ideal for felling projects and clearing storm-damaged trees.

Flail Head
Efficiently shreds thick vegetation, brambles, and overgrowth—perfect for reclaiming neglected or overgrown areas.

Hydraulic Tree Shears
Delivers precise, controlled cuts for small trees and branches—faster, safer, and cleaner than traditional saw work.

Stump Grinder
Mounted directly to the excavator for quick, clean stump removal without the need for separate machinery hire.

Digging Buckets
For trenching, ground clearance, and preparation in tight-access areas—ideal for landscaping or construction prep.
