Peatland Restoration – How We Help
Treeclear UK provide peatland restoration in Lancashire, Cumbria, Staffordshire, Lincolnshire, Cheshire, Yorkshire, Northumberland & Co Durham.
We also cover Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, and Cambridgeshire.
A combination of purpose-built low ground pressure excavators & unique mulching heads enables us to mulch various types of vegetation on virtually any peatland surface.
Our low ground pressure excavators only exert 1.5 psi enabling us to travel over most terrains with minimal damage enabling the ground to quickly recover. The working width is 15 m per pass minimising the area tracked over to less than 15% of the area worked.
- Dense scrub such willow and rhododendron
- Regenerated birch and pine

- Will Livesley
I have used TreeClear UK as contractors for the last nine years and have always been really impressed with their service and approach to each job. Anthony Lambert and his team bring extensive knowledge and experience that is applied with diligence to difficult work sites. The use of their low ground pressure tracked machines on peat mires leave very little impact on sensitive vegetation. Their bespoke mulching equipment has efficiently dealt with really dense stands of rhododendron and regenerated Sitka spruce, reducing material to a manageable chip mat. Our landowners and other clients have been extremely pleased with the end result. I would always recommend TreeClear UK for clearance work on sensitive tree/shrub clearance sites.

Treeclear removed trees, scrub and rhododendron during the winters of 2021/22 and 2022/23 at on of our National Nature Reserves. They delivered an excellent service; competent, practical and efficient on a complex and hazardous site. Their understanding of the difficulties in working on a raised bog and their expert use of specialist equipment was integral to the successful delivery of the project which has allowed us to restore key parts of the habitat to benefit biodiversity and help reduce CO2 emissions.
