Coverage across PH6
We're on Comrie jobs constantly — PH6 is essentially the next village west of our Crieff yard. That includes the village itself, plus the surrounding rural properties out toward St Fillans, Cultybraggan, Dalginross, Ross and up the Glen Lednock road. The straight run on the A85 means a site visit doesn't cost you a callout wait.
Response times to Comrie
Most PH6 enquiries are quoted within one to two working days. Because Comrie sits so close to base, emergency callouts — wind-thrown limbs off the mature beeches, boundary trees leaning into a road — can usually be dealt with the same working day (Mon–Sun, 8am–6pm).
Familiarity with Comrie property types
Comrie's character is Victorian and estate-planted. Mature beech and lime avenues, standing conifers around the older feuar houses, stone-cottage gardens with dry-stone boundaries, and generous rural plots along the river valleys. That, plus the higher-than-average rainfall that comes with being close to the Highland boundary, drives what we're asked to do here — hedge and tree work, moss-heavy lawn renovation, and drainage-savvy landscaping.

15 minutes from base
Comrie is the closest village to our Crieff yard. That's real for scheduling — small jobs and callouts don't sit in a queue behind city work.
Respect for listed & conservation properties
Much of the village core sits in a conservation area. We work carefully around stone boundaries, listed gate piers and specimen trees, and we know when planning input is needed.
SEPA-registered waste removal
Every branch, cutting and root leaves in our truck, disposed of legally — important when the alternative is a hopeful bonfire in a damp Comrie garden.
Written fixed price
Free site visit, written quote, no deposit. What we agree is what you pay — no day-rate surprises.
Comrie plots we work on.
Village core stone cottages (Melville Square, Dalginross)
Small-to-medium walled gardens, stone boundaries, mature specimen trees. Common jobs: hedge cutting, single-tree removal, gravel paths, careful clearance around listed features.
Victorian & Edwardian feuar houses
Larger plots with big mature trees planted 100+ years ago — beech, sycamore, Scots pine. Reduction, thinning and end-of-life fells are common.
River-valley plots (Ross, Cultybraggan, Lednock road)
Bigger rural gardens with wet corners, riparian tree lines and long boundaries. Fencing, hedge management, drainage-aware landscaping.
St Fillans lochside gardens
Sloping plots down to Loch Earn with dramatic aspect and equally dramatic wind exposure. Tree safety, boundary fencing and driveway drainage carry more weight than planting choices.
What comes up in Comrie.
High rainfall + heavy lawns
Comrie sits close to the Highland boundary fault — annual rainfall is noticeably higher than lowland Perthshire. Lawns turn to moss quickly on compacted or poorly-drained ground. Proper prep and drainage on a new lawn is worth more than any fertiliser plan afterwards.
Mature Victorian planting past its peak
Many beeches and limes planted 100–150 years ago are now at end-of-life. Deadwood, cavities and honey-fungus are common — a survey before storm season is worth an hour of anyone's time.
Riverside boundary erosion
Plots along the Earn, Ruchill and Lednock see boundary erosion and tree undermining. Removal and safe felling is often preferable to leaving a leaning specimen for the next spate.
Conservation area rules
Anything in the Comrie Conservation Area may need consent — including some tree work on street-visible specimens. We'll flag it before work starts, not after.
Wet-corner clearance
Damp shaded corners choked with laurel, rhododendron ponticum and elder are a common brief. Full clearance, root removal and replacement planting or gravel gets them usable.
