Tree surgery in Fortrose, established 2008.
Wyvis Tree Services Ltd is a local arborist company providing professional tree surgery, sectional dismantling and storm-damage response in Fortrose and the wider Black Isle area.
Cathedral & Chanonry-Point village.
Fortrose is a historic Black Isle town — Cathedral, Academy, and the Chanonry Point peninsula. Mature trees line many of the older streets, and the town's Conservation Area means tree work needs to be sympathetic and properly checked beforehand.
We work across IV10 on heritage-tree pruning, sectional dismantling around old stone walls, and hedge-care for the long mature boundaries that define many Fortrose gardens.

Common questions for Fortrose customers.
Something we haven't covered? Ask us directly.
Do you check Conservation Area status before quoting?
Yes — most of the Black Isle's older village cores (Cromarty, Fortrose, Rosemarkie) have Conservation Area designations. We check Highland Council records before any felling.
Are you fully insured?
Yes — Wyvis Tree Services Ltd carries comprehensive Public & Employer Liability cover. Evidence available on request before any quote is accepted.
Do I need consent to fell or prune my tree?
Possibly. Trees in a Conservation Area or under a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) need consent from the local planning authority, and conifer hedges over 2m can fall under the High Hedges (Scotland) Act 2013. We check before starting and can submit the 6-week notice on your behalf.
How quickly can you come out?
For a written quote we usually visit within a week. For storm or emergency call-outs (fallen trees, hung-up limbs, road blockages) we aim for same-day cover whenever we possibly can.
Do you tidy up at the end?
Always. Brash is chipped on the day, timber stacked or removed, the site swept and checked. If you'd like the chip or logs to stay, just ask — otherwise it all goes.
