About Us

Unpredictable weather can cause trees and vegetation to interfere with overhead power lines and other essential infrastructure.  Wootton Forestry & Powerline Services is a third-generation, family-owned Lincolnshire business specialising in utility arboriculture, forestry and professional tree work. Our highly trained teams provide specialist vegetation management around electricity supplies, telecommunications, waterways and rail networks, always prioritising safety, reliability and minimal disruption.

Our NPTC-qualified utility arborists hold the relevant UA certificates of competence required to work alongside electrical infrastructure. We deliver risk-based tree management programmes that help prevent avoidable power outages, protect essential networks and safeguard the public. Where authorised, our teams undertake work alongside live networks and carefully plan vegetation clearance during shutdowns to ensure work is completed safely and efficiently. We also provide a 24-hour emergency response, 365 days a year, for storm damage, fallen trees and vegetation-related faults.
