Soho’s compact gardens, courtyards and roof terraces demand careful, well-planned tree work. We provide tree felling, crown reduction and precise pruning around W1 homes and businesses, including near Soho Square and Carnaby Street. Whether you need hedge work to sharpen boundaries or a fast emergency call-out after high winds, we arrive prepared. Our team also produces clear tree reports for property sales and management companies.
In Soho you’ll often find Georgian townhouses with rear gardens, mansion flats with shared courtyards, and commercial conversions with tight access points. That mix means tree maintenance must balance aesthetics, neighbour considerations and building protection. We regularly support clients across nearby Covent Garden, Fitzrovia and Leicester Square, where trees sit close to walls, lightwells and utilities. Our approach suits both private homeowners and block managers needing consistent standards.
We start with a site visit to assess tree health, targets and access, then agree a clear scope and schedule. Work is carried out by trained arborists using controlled rigging and clean cut techniques to protect paving, planting and façades. All arisings are removed, and we can grind stumps below ground level for replanting or landscaping. Clients choose us for straightforward communication, dependable timekeeping and a finish that looks intentional, not rushed.
Soho sits within the City of Westminster, where parking, loading times and pedestrian traffic can affect scheduling. We plan waste removal, chipper positioning and safe drop zones to suit narrow streets and shared accessways. Many properties have mature trees close to party walls and basements, so we use controlled lowering and careful pruning points. If permissions or protections apply, we’ll flag them early and help you stay compliant.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in Soho vary with tree size, access, waste removal and whether rigging is needed. As a guide, small pruning jobs often start around £180–£350, while crown reductions for medium trees are commonly £350–£850. Tree felling with sectional dismantling can range from £650–£2,000+. Stump removal by grinding is typically £120–£450 depending on diameter and depth. We provide a written quote after a site visit.
Most pruning visits take 1–3 hours for a small tree, or half a day for larger crowns. Crown reduction and hedge work are often completed within a day, while complex sectional felling in tight courtyards may take 1–2 days. Stump grinding is usually 30–90 minutes per stump. Timescales depend on access (stairs, basements, rear alleys), traffic restrictions, and the amount of brash and timber to remove.
Many routine works such as pruning, deadwood removal and hedge trimming can be carried out without formal permission, but some trees are protected by Tree Preservation Orders or sit within a conservation area. In the City of Westminster this is common, so we always recommend checks before major pruning or felling. We can help identify protections, advise on the correct notices, and provide supporting information for applications where required.
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty on agreed elements of the service, covering defects caused by poor practice (for example, incorrect pruning cuts or avoidable damage related to our work). Natural factors outside our control—storms, pests, disease, drought, or pre-existing structural issues—aren’t covered. We document the scope before starting and leave the site tidy, so you know exactly what has been done and what’s included.
We tailor the finish to your goals and the setting. For pruning, options include light shaping, crown lifting for clearance, crown reduction for size control, and selective thinning to improve airflow. For hedges, we can formalise crisp lines or maintain a softer, wildlife-friendly profile. For tree planting, we’ll recommend suitable species for courtyards and terraces, considering shade, root behaviour and long-term maintenance, then set out spacing and aftercare.
