Forestry-grade work, planned for London

Forestry in London is a different discipline from forestry in the shires. The trees can be just as big — mature limes, planes and cedars on estates, in parks and behind large gardens — but the job is won or lost on logistics: access, parking suspensions, traffic management, noise windows and protected-tree consents.

We bring the forestry capability — crane-assisted dismantling, City & Guilds Level 3 felling over 760mm, our own kit — together with the planning a city site demands. Where a full forestry fleet won't fit, we scale down to compact machines and rigging without losing control of the tree.

We cover Greater London with a focus on the south and west: Richmond, Kingston, Wimbledon, Putney, Barnes, Bromley, Croydon, Sutton, Dulwich and Wandsworth — and we know the boroughs' TPO and conservation-area regimes.

Common Questions

Before you call

Do you work across Greater London? +

Yes — all London boroughs, with a particular strength in the leafier south and west: Richmond, Kingston, Wimbledon, Putney, Bromley, Croydon and Sutton. We handle the access and logistics that London sites demand.

Can you work on tight-access London sites? +

Yes. London work is as much about logistics as chainsaws — restricted access, parking suspensions, traffic management and noise windows. We plan all of it and bring compact kit where a full forestry fleet won't fit.

Do you handle London TPOs and conservation areas? +

Constantly — much of London's tree stock is protected. We check the borough register, submit the applications and manage felling licences so work is fully consented before we start.

Who do you work for in London? +

Estates and large gardens, developers and groundworks contractors, managing agents, schools and grounds-maintenance teams, and local authorities — anyone who needs forestry-scale or difficult tree work done safely in the city.
