From mature street trees near Notting Hill Gate to compact rear gardens off Portobello Road Market, trees here need careful, professional management. Fine Landscaping provides tree felling, crown reduction, pruning, stump removal and hedge work tailored to W11 homes. We also offer emergency call-outs after storms and can supply clear tree reports when required. Expect a clean site, controlled lowering, and minimal noise and mess.
Notting Hill’s pastel-painted Victorian townhouses, mansion conversions and mews houses often come with tight side access, shared boundaries and established planting. In Holland Park and Ladbroke Grove, we regularly work around delicate paving, raised beds and mature canopies that affect light and privacy. Our team plans each job to protect neighbouring gardens, fences and parked vehicles. If you’re planting new trees, we’ll recommend species that suit smaller London plots and long-term maintenance.
We start with a site visit to assess tree health, structure and risks, then agree a clear scope and method statement. All works are carried out by qualified arborists using safe rigging techniques and appropriate machinery for restricted access. We remove arisings, recycle green waste where possible, and leave your garden usable the same day. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, transparent advice, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Working in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea means careful planning for parking, narrow streets and resident access, especially around W11. Many gardens have mature trees close to buildings, party walls and conservatories, so we use controlled lowering rather than free-felling. We also factor in seasonal footfall near the Carnival route and busy roads when scheduling. If permissions or protected status apply, we’ll help you navigate the checks before work begins.

Costs vary with tree size, access and waste removal. As a guide in Notting Hill, pruning or crown reduction is often £250–£900, depending on height and complexity. Small tree felling can start around £350–£700, while larger sectional dismantles are commonly £900–£2,500+. Stump removal is typically £120–£450 per stump. A site visit helps confirm safe methods and realistic pricing.
Many pruning jobs take 2–4 hours, with larger crown reductions usually completed within a day. Sectional felling in tight gardens can take 1–2 days, especially where careful rigging is required. Stump grinding is often 30–90 minutes per stump, depending on diameter and root flare. Timescales are affected by access, proximity to buildings, waste volume, and whether a tree report or council checks are needed first.
Most routine garden tree maintenance doesn’t require planning permission, but there are important exceptions. Trees may be protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or fall within a conservation area, where notice or consent can be required before pruning or felling. We’ll ask the right questions, check protection status where applicable, and advise on the correct process. Emergency works for immediate danger can be handled, with appropriate documentation.
Yes. Our workmanship is covered by a 10-year warranty for the work we carry out, giving you added confidence in the standard and durability of the service. It covers issues arising from poor workmanship on agreed tasks (for example, remedial work if a specified cut or reduction wasn’t completed to the agreed standard). It doesn’t cover natural events, future growth, storms, or damage caused by third parties.
For planting, popular choices for London gardens include multi-stem trees for screening, small ornamental trees for colour, and pleached forms for privacy along boundaries. For pruning, we can carry out crown thinning, crown reduction, formative pruning and deadwood removal depending on the tree’s species and condition. Hedge work can include shaping, height reduction and renovation pruning. We’ll recommend options that balance light, privacy, and long-term maintenance.
