About Us

Nigel began his career in 1991 when upon leaving school he started a Youth Training Scheme and gained a work placement with a local tree surgery company.

After gaining his City & Guilds in Arboriculture he was offered a job as a climber in the company that he had trained with.

In 1995 Nigel started his own company, but it wasn’t until 2001 that Nigel Earley Services as it is today was formed followed by Nigel Earley Services Ltd in 2014.

Originally just working from the back of a van and a trailer with Joy, Nigel’s wife acting as grounds person, the company has now grown to employing 3 full time staff in addition to Nigel and Joy as directors, complete with a large array of equipment to tackle any size of job.

All members of staff are fully trained and qualified to NPTC standard for the work they undertake and we are proud to be members of the Isle of Wight Council Trading Standards Approved scheme.
