From mature street trees near Sidcup High Street to larger garden specimens by Foots Cray Meadows, local trees need skilled, controlled management. We provide professional tree felling, crown reduction, pruning and planting to keep your outdoor space safe and attractive. If you’ve got overhanging branches, storm damage or a failing tree, we can respond quickly and work with minimal disruption. Our team also handles hedge work and stump removal for a complete tidy-up.
Sidcup’s well-established suburb character means many gardens feature long-standing trees alongside newer planting schemes. We regularly work on 1930s semis in DA14 and DA15, as well as Victorian houses and modern developments where access can be tight. Whether you’re in Foots Cray, close to Chislehurst, or on the Bexley side of town, we tailor methods to your property layout and neighbouring boundaries. That local understanding helps us plan safe rigging, efficient waste removal and sensible aftercare.
We start with a site visit to assess tree health, risks, access and your goals, then provide a clear written quote. Work is carried out by trained, insured arborists using correct cutting techniques and tidy waste handling, with options for logs, chipping and full removal. If you need documentation, we can supply tree reports to support property sales, neighbour discussions or management plans. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, punctual crews and careful protection of lawns, patios and driveways.
As tree contractors in London Borough of Bexley, we’re used to the access challenges of shared driveways, narrow side returns and parked streets. Many Sidcup gardens sit on mixed soils that can affect root stability and regrowth after pruning. We plan equipment and chipper placement to keep disruption down and maintain safe pedestrian routes. If restrictions apply, we’ll help check protections and agree a compliant approach before cutting begins.

Costs vary by height, species, access and whether waste is removed. In the Sidcup area, small pruning jobs often start around £150–£350. Crown reduction on a medium tree is commonly £350–£750, while larger dismantles or felling can be £800–£2,000+. Stump removal typically ranges from £120–£450 depending on diameter and depth. Emergency call-outs may add a premium, especially out of hours.
Most straightforward pruning or hedge work can be completed in a few hours. A crown reduction on a medium tree is often half a day, while complex dismantling near buildings or lines may take a full day or more. Stump grinding is usually 30–90 minutes per stump, but multiple stumps can extend the visit. Timescales depend on access, tree condition, nesting checks, and how much timber and chip you want removed.
Many garden tree works are permitted, but some trees are protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or sit within conservation areas, which can require consent before pruning or felling. Rules can also apply to work near boundaries or highways. We’ll ask the right questions, help check constraints, and advise on the best compliant specification. If an application is needed, we can support with clear descriptions and, where required, a tree report.
Yes. We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on agreed elements of the work, such as planting and aftercare specifications where we supply and install. It covers defects caused by poor workmanship, not issues outside our control like extreme weather, pest outbreaks, or changes in soil conditions. For pruning and felling, the guarantee focuses on safe execution, correct techniques and site reinstatement. We’ll confirm what’s covered in writing before we start.
We can recommend planting options suited to Sidcup gardens, from smaller ornamental trees to screening varieties and native species mixes. For existing trees, common choices include crown reduction, crown lifting, thinning, formative pruning and deadwood removal, depending on structure and light levels. Finishing options include full waste removal, leaving logs for firewood, or chipping for mulch. We’ll explain the pros and cons and help you choose a plan that balances safety, aesthetics and long-term health.
