​
In 2015, Phil started Sorrel CMS; offering fencing and estate management services. In 2018, a woodchipper was purchased to assist with the hedgerow maintenace work and then in 2020, a compact tractor and post knocker was bought to cope with the demand for fencing. The majority of the work is carried out on small estates or holdings where soil compaction and access are limiting factors; the small tractor and the 200kg contractors post knocker proves vital to completion of the works. Hedgerow management, including hedge laying, is carried out by 'hand' by a small team of experienced personnel.
