How we remove trees

Safe removals in tight London spaces.

Sectional dismantling

Most garden trees in Surrey and London can't just be felled — they come down in planned sections, rigged and lowered under control, clear of sheds, fences, greenhouses and neighbours.

Crane-assist & MEWP for the big ones

Large, dead or dangerous trees over buildings are lifted out in engineered picks rather than climbed — safer, faster, and often the only sensible option for oversized trees in gardens.

Big, large, dead & dangerous trees

Big and large tree removal is our speciality — overgrown leylandii and conifer rows, oak, ash, sycamore, poplar, dead trees, dieback and dangerous leans, all handled with a written plan. A complete tree removal service with the full clean up included.

Waste, logs & stumps

Everything is chipped on site or removed with our Unimog — you keep the logs or woodchip if you want them. Stumps are cut as low as practical; ask about stump options when we quote.

Questions

Tree removal questions, answered straight.

The tree is right next to my house — can you still remove it?

Yes. Most of our work is in confined spaces. We use sectional dismantling, rigging, MEWPs or crane-assist depending on access, with a written method statement before work starts.

What happens to the wood and waste?

All branch material is chipped on site with our 12-inch chipper and timber is removed — or left cut for firewood if you'd like to keep it. The site is raked and left tidy.

Do you remove the stump too?

We cut stumps as low as practical as standard. If you need the stump taken out completely, tell us in the quote form and we'll price the options with the removal.

How big a tree can you handle?

There's effectively no upper limit — we hold the City & Guilds Level 3 qualification for trees over 760mm diameter and run crane-assisted removals other firms can't. Big is what we do.

Do I need permission to remove my tree?

If it's protected by a TPO or you're in a conservation area, yes — we'll check the tree's status and make sure the council consents are in place first. Otherwise most garden tree removals need no permission.

Can you remove big, large or dead trees near me?

Yes — big and large tree removal is our speciality: dead trees, dangerous trees, leaning or hollow stems and awkward spots others turn down. Our tree removal service includes the full clean up — everything chipped, logged or taken away and the site left tidy, across Surrey and South West London.
