Tree Felling & Removal

Sometimes a tree just needs to come down. It might be dead or dying, growing too close to your house, causing problems with subsidence, or simply too big for your garden. Whatever the reason, you need someone who knows what they're doing. Tree removal is the core of what we do: we fell and remove trees of all sizes across Sussex and Surrey, from a single garden tree to clearing an entire site for a development. Every job is planned properly before we start, and all our climbers are City & Guilds NPTC qualified.

If the tree is close to your house, a fence, a conservatory, or power lines, we can't just fell it in one piece. Instead, we take it apart section by section from the top down, lowering each piece on ropes so nothing drops where it shouldn't. For really big or tricky removals we bring in a crane to lift heavy sections clear of buildings and set them down safely. We've done this next to listed buildings, on residential streets, and in school grounds.

Before we start, we'll check if the tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO), which means you need council consent first, or if you're in a Conservation Area, where the council needs six weeks' notice. We handle the paperwork for you. We also check for nesting birds, especially between March and August, because active nests are protected by law. Once the tree is down, everything is cleared away and recycled. If you'd like us to cut the logs for your fire, just say the word.
