Providing London with Trusted, Reliable and Friendly Tree Surgeons

Message from the Founding Director...

Hi my name is Jesse. I'm a London resident with over 10 years of experience as a Tree Surgeon/ Arborist. After completing my NPTC qualifications I developed my skills in a multitude of companies across London. Following the years of employment I then took in clients of my own as "MacFarlane Treeworks" as well as working as a Freelance climber for other companies. Over the years I not only built up a wealth of knowledge and skills in arboriculture but gained a community of fellow Tree surgeons, all with varying capabilities and knowledge. Of all the people I stayed in contact with, there were two things we all had in common; We shared the same value in top-level tree work, ensuring the protection of tree integrity and all held a strong value in client satisfaction. Today the services of TSISL Limited is built on the strengths of this special network I was lucky enough to build over these years.

We stand apart…

Arboriculture has always been an industry defined by its challenges—physically demanding work, inherent risks, and the ever-present demand for expert knowledge. Tree surgery isn’t just about cutting branches; it’s about understanding ecosystems, ensuring public safety, and working in unpredictable environments, often under intense pressure.

Yet, despite the skill and dedication required, many arborists find themselves in a system that treats them as expendable labor rather than skilled professionals. Too often, the focus is solely on output—getting the job done—without concern for the well-being of those doing the work. Paychecks may come, but long-term support, career development, and personal growth often take a backseat.

At Tree Surgeons in South London Ltd. (TSISL), we believe it’s time for a new approach—one that blends modern entrepreneurship, innovation, and genuine human care. We’re not just here to run a business; we’re here to redefine what it means to work in arboriculture.

The Boutique Approach: Standing Out in a Traditional Industry

In an industry dominated by large, often impersonal firms, TSISL operates as a boutique tree surgery business with a difference. We combine cutting-edge technology, a problem-solving mindset, and an unwavering commitment to our team’s well-being.

Rather than treating arborists as mere workers, we see our team as a band of brothers (and sisters), united not just by the job but by a shared vision of growth and health. This means:

Hand-Selected Teams: We don’t just hire for skill—we hire for attitude, responsibility, and a willingness to support each other.

Entrepreneurial Thinking: We tackle challenges with fresh solutions, using technology and new methods to make our work safer, more efficient, and more sustainable.

Health & Well-being First: A burned-out, exhausted worker isn’t just a liability on the job—they’re at risk of falling into unhealthy habits outside of work. We actively invest in our people, creating a work culture that values well-being over burnout.

More Than a Job: A Lifestyle of Growth

Too many in the industry fall into the same cycle: hard work, physical strain, minimal recovery, and personal struggles that get ignored. At TSISL, we see our company as a vehicle for a better lifestyle, not just a paycheck.

Support Beyond Work: We offer well-being initiatives, team-building activities, and support systems to help our arborists lead fulfilling lives.

Safety Through Culture, Not Just Rules: Rather than just enforcing regulations, we instill a safety-first mindset that becomes second nature.

Building a Future Together: Career progression isn’t just about climbing a ladder—it’s about growing as individuals. We mentor our team members, helping them develop skills, financial stability, and a vision for their own futures.

A Call for a New Standard in Arboriculture

It’s time for a shift in the industry. Arboriculture is demanding, but that doesn’t mean it has to be draining. With the right approach, tree surgery can be a fulfilling, sustainable, and empowering career—one where people are valued, challenges are met with solutions, and businesses thrive by putting their teams first.

At TSISL, we’re proving that you don’t have to be the biggest to be the best—you just need to care more, think differently, and build a company that people are proud to be a part of.

If you’re looking for tree surgeons who don’t just work with trees but build a culture of excellence, TSISL is leading the way.
