Can anyone recommend a specialist in pruning very well established fruit trees, what time of the year is best and how much would it cost, I realise it would depend on size of the tree, these are established so quite big, thank you.

I have an orchard with all kind of fruit trees. Generally, all of them could be prune in winter till febrery. But it depends the fruit tree, for example orange produce in winter, so the pruning is delayed, like the nispero. In short, the pruning comes when the leaves fall, OR after the havest for the tree keeping their leaves all year.
It is also possible to prun all year, light pruning. My neighbourg and I could maybe help you, and if you show us your trees, we could say you what to do. There is various intent in the pruning : productivity, or regeneration, or decorative. The regeneration is when branches went too hight, so it needs a severe pruning, and the regeneration could take 2 year for the tree, to give fruits again.
