Testimonials

Hope you had a good journey back to North Wales after you left us in E17! Your carving has already been much admired by our friends and neighbours.

— Tim Carter and Jo Harris – East London

We are absolutely delighted with our wood sculptures, an eagle and a group of buzzards. They are a fantastic way of keeping the natural evidence of a previously favourite tree, and at the same time enhancing our garden for the future.

— Ken and Sally Brown

Well we have had time to sit and look at your carving Simon, and all our visitors and friends alike are so impressed. The woodland scene and squirrel are just perfect for the location.
We would be more than happy to put our name to anything in praise of your work.

— Stephen Perry

Many thanks for your excellent work and advice. I have no hesitation in recommending you to other people and organisations, your standard of work is incredibly good, and you yourself come over as very professional. I wish you every success especially in your competition work, I would hope we could bring you back to Northwich Woodlands in the near future preferably at Anderton. Meanwhile consider yourself in the premier league.

— Dave J – Anderton

Simon has a rare talent and is truly inspired as a carver. His pieces are nothing less than works of art. Not only that but he comes when he says he will and finishes on time! You will not be disappointed by Simon.

— George Begg

We cannot praise Simon O’Rourke tree carving highly. His ability to conjure up creative designs is one thing, but his ability to carve exactly that design is an art to behold. As a busy schools landscaping company, we really value Simon’s professionalism and reliability but above all his ability to be creative and deliver outstanding work on time.

Following your attendance at “The Spinney Hospital” an incredible amount of positive feedback has been received from staff & patients with regards to the fine carvings you performed on site.

All visitors who attend site, whether it be of a professional capacity or as a family member visiting a patient, have commented on how surprised they were to be greeted by such fantastic sights as the owl looming in the tree or the crocodile basking on the front lawn.

I would like to thank you personally on behalf of staff/patients for your professional and conscientious approach whilst on site and your accommodating style which enabled you to still produce magnificent sculptures as well as satisfying the needs of the hospital environment.

Many thanks for all your hard work and I look forward to working with you at our other sites in the near future.

Just wanted to thank you again for the wonderful work you did. The boys who were at camp have been so stunned and amazed to find the beautiful addition to our community. They are starting to decide on a name for the owl.

— Helena – CloughWood School, Northwich

Just to say a big thank you for the work you did at St Luke’s school, you really are a very talented person. Also thank you very much for the fish you carved for me for my mum. I gave it to her that night rather than waiting for mother’s day and she was delighted.
