Every tree surgery business faces these challenges. ProWorks solves them all.
You walk the site, size up the dismantle, then spend the evening writing it up. Save your day rate and markup once and turn a site visit into a professional branded quote in minutes.
Councils and commercial clients want RAMS and proof of insurance before you start. Store the paperwork against each job so it is to hand when the client asks, not buried in an inbox.
A dismantle that runs long, extra fuel and a chipper on hire all eat into a fixed price. Log the team's hours and record plant and fuel as job costs, so you see the real margin on every job.
Once the brash is chipped and the timber is gone, the invoice is easy to let slide. ProWorks flags overdue invoices automatically, so nothing slips after you leave site.
From a garden hedge cut to a full dismantle over a conservatory, manage every part of your tree work
You have to stand under it to price it. Quote from your saved rates on site, note where the chipper can get to and how you reach the back garden, and send the branded PDF before you drive off.
See the week in a visual diary and assign each job to the team. Every job's address is on the schedule, so you can group work by area and click through for directions.
The costs on a tree job are plant hire, fuel and getting the arisings away, not materials off a merchant. Record each one against the job and see what a day of climbing and chipping actually cleared.
A dismantle takes a climber and two on the ground, and they do not all cost the same an hour. Everyone logs their own time against the job, so the labour cost of a crew day is a figure rather than a feeling.
A protected tree cannot be touched until the council comes back, which can be six weeks. Put the job on hold with the application details on it, then pick it up and invoice once the work is finally done.
Upload before and after photos to each job for your portfolio and protection in a dispute. Store RAMS, insurance certificates and TPO consents against the job so the paperwork stays with the work.
Built for UK tree surgery businesses - from garden crown reductions to commercial and council contracts
Yes. Put the team out on day rate for hedge cutting and clearance while running fixed and quoted prices for dismantles and reductions. ProWorks handles both, so each job is charged the way it was agreed.
Keep RAMS, insurance certificates and site photos stored against every job, and group a phased contract under a project so the hours and the costs for the whole thing add up in one place.
Bring in a freelance climber for a big dismantle and let them log their own hours with limited access. Work with subbies without sharing sensitive information, and their hours feed the job's labour cost.

Straight answers for UK tree surgery businesses comparing job management software.
Yes. Quote the dismantle as a fixed or quoted job, then have the climber and ground staff start and stop time against it. The invoice bills the agreed figure, and the logged hours show the true labour cost, so you know whether the price held. Hedge cutting on the same site can run on a day rate.
Yes. Chipper or MEWP hire, fuel, skips and timber disposal go on the job as materials with the supplier, cost and your markup. They flow onto the invoice, and the job shows what a day with the chipper actually costs you.
Yes. Upload your RAMS, insurance certificates and TPO consents against the job, where they stay linked to the customer and the site, so they are to hand the moment a council officer or a facilities manager asks. Two years on, the paperwork for that job is still with the job rather than in an inbox.
Put the instructions on the assignment: the MEWP booked for eight, the TPO consent number, where the chipper can stand. They show on each person's daily view with the address and directions, and each person logs their hours against that job. Drag work between days and crews as the week moves and everyone sees the change.
Yes. Invite the climber's company as a subcontractor and assign them the job. They log their own hours, which land on the job's labour cost and your invoice, and they never see your customer list. A subcontractor login is £5 a month plus 50p for each day you assign them work.
UK tree surgeons use ProWorks to quote on site, hold jobs that are waiting on council consent, and see what a crew day cost once plant and tipping are counted. Try it free for 30 days - no credit card required.
