Established in 2001 by Charles Piggott, Moorlands Tree & Groundcare is a local business based in Stoke-on-Trent. Charles spent his early life in a rural community and used to work on a neighbouring farm during his spare time. He gained experience in a variety of arboricultural tasks. In 2001, he moved to a local post as a part-time GP and in 2013 he left the practice to concentrate fulltime on tree surgery. He now works mainly on residential properties in the Stoke on Trent area and the Staffordshire Moorlands, and will undertake selective commercial work. He and his team hold the required NPTC certificates of competence for all aspects of tree surgery, both on the ground, and above ground, either by climbing or using a hydraulic access platform.
Moorlands Tree & Groundcare has grown from a one-man venture to a small but dedicated team. We have undertaken sizeable projects in protected woodlands for work funded by Natural England.
