Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our Tree Surgery services answered.
Is tree surgery safe for my garden?
Yes – we use ropes, pulleys and mats to protect lawns and plants. Our climbers are trained to lower every branch safely, and we clean up as we go.
What happens to the wood and branches?
Everything is chipped on-site. You can keep the mulch for your borders (great for weed control), or we take it away at no extra cost.
How long does tree removal take?
Most domestic trees are removed in 1–2 days. Stump grinding adds half a day. We’ll confirm exact timing after seeing the tree.
Do I need permission to remove a tree?
Possibly – if it’s in a conservation area or has a TPO. We check for free and handle applications if needed.
Can you remove stumps after tree removal?
Yes – we grind them 30 cm below soil level so you can replant, lay turf or pave straight over. No ugly stump left behind.
What qualifications do your team have?
All climbers hold NPTC City & Guilds tickets in tree surgery and aerial rescue. We’re fully insured up to £5 m.

Excellent job
Excellent job. So pleased with the work carried out to complete a small patio. Had full confidence in Paul from first visit and he was quick to quote and book in a time. Paul was also very helpful in finding matching sandstone paving. We’re delighted with the result and definitely recommend.
