Ricky Hodge — Owner & Lead Arborist
Ricky Hodge is a highly skilled tree surgeon with over 10 years of experience working with all varieties of trees found in the Axarquia area. His journey began in the UK, where he trained to the highest industry standards while working for 4 years with the prestigious Blake Tree Care.
Now based in Spain, Ricky brings that same level of British precision and safety to the Costa del Sol. He specializes in complex climbing and rigging, ensuring even the most difficult trees are managed safely.
Professional Gear & Safety
Ricky takes great pride in using top-end Stihl tools and professional climbing equipment. He is a climber who respects the tree—strictly adhering to a "no spikes" policy for pruning to prevent unnecessary harm or infection to the tree.
"Safety is paramount. Every job is undertaken with serious regard for the health of the tree, the safety of the crew, and the protection of your property."
