Josh Mogford.
LEAD ARBORIST
After spending years in the Armed Forces, when he returned, he took on a role with us and learned on the job so quickly, turning him into an experienced, effective arborist. Josh has a level 2 in Arboriculture and is a certified RFS arborist.
Josh's favourite piece of equipment is the Tracked Wood Chipper. He loves its ‘chomping power’ as he so perfectly words it!
His favourite part of working in arboriculture is when he is in forestry, dealing with windblown trees and storm damage.
As an ex-Army Engineer, we know we can always come to Josh when a piece of machinery starts playing up! He loves tinkering about with old motorcycles in his spare time as well as surfing.
