From Bermondsey Street to Tower Bridge, mature trees and tight access can make garden work challenging. Fine Landscaping provides qualified tree surgery for homeowners and landlords across SE1 and SE16. Whether you need crown reduction to bring back light or careful tree felling near buildings, we plan each job around safety and neighbours. We also cover hedge work and stump removal to leave your outdoor space usable straight away.
Bermondsey’s mix of converted warehouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments often means shared boundaries, courtyards and restricted rear access. Our tree contractors Bermondsey area team is used to working with narrow side returns, basement lightwells and communal gardens. Around London Bridge and Rotherhithe, we frequently manage overhanging branches, wind exposure and shade issues. We tailor pruning and planting choices to suit smaller plots and riverside conditions.
We start with a site visit to assess tree health, risks and the best method for access and lowering. You’ll receive a clear scope of works, waste removal plan and schedule, with emergency call-out available when storms hit. All work is carried out by insured professionals using modern rigging and safety systems, and we leave the site clean and swept. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, respectful working hours and consistent results.
Working across the London Borough of Southwark, we plan around controlled parking, loading restrictions and limited access near SE1 and SE16. Bermondsey’s hard landscaping, courtyards and converted warehouse plots often require sectional dismantles rather than straight felling. We also consider wind funnels near the river and the effect of shade on smaller gardens. Where needed, we coordinate sensible timings to minimise disruption to neighbours and pedestrians.

Many Bermondsey jobs can be completed in a half day to a full day, such as pruning, hedge reductions or a straightforward stump grind. Larger crown reductions or sectional dismantles may take 1–2 days, especially with tight access in terrace gardens or courtyards. Timescales depend on tree size, waste volume, parking/loading arrangements and whether a neighbour’s access is required. We confirm timings before starting and keep you updated on progress.
Most routine tree maintenance is permitted, but restrictions can apply if a tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sits within a conservation area. In the London Borough of Southwark, you may need consent or to give notice before carrying out certain works. We can check protection status, advise on the correct approach and help with supporting information, including tree reports where required, before any cutting begins.
Yes. We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying landscaping works and reinstatement associated with the job, such as making good surfaces after stump removal or access protection where agreed. For tree surgery, we guarantee the work is carried out to industry standards and the agreed specification, with full clean-up included. Living elements like new tree planting are also covered by aftercare guidance and practical support if issues arise.
We offer several approaches depending on your goals: crown reduction to manage height and light, formative pruning for young trees, selective thinning for airflow, and hedge shaping or reductions for privacy. For planting, popular choices include compact ornamental trees, multi-stems for screening, and wildlife-friendly natives suited to smaller Bermondsey gardens. We’ll recommend options based on space, shade, soil conditions and maintenance preferences, then finish with mulching and tidy edging where needed.
