From overhanging branches near London Bridge to tight access behind Bermondsey Street, tree work in this area needs planning and precision. We handle everything from controlled tree felling to sectional dismantling when space is limited. If you’re close to Maltby Street Market or within SE1/SE16, our team can assess risks, protect nearby structures and complete the job cleanly. Waste is removed promptly so you’re not left with piles of timber and brash.
Bermondsey’s mix of converted warehouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments often means shared boundaries, narrow side returns and delicate paving. We’re used to working around courtyards, roof terraces and communal gardens where noise, access and timing matter. For properties near Tower Bridge or Rotherhithe, we routinely plan lifts, rigging and carry-out routes to avoid damage to walls, fences and planters. This local experience helps keep work efficient and neighbour-friendly.
We start with a site survey, confirm access and identify hazards such as overhead cables, decay or lean. Depending on the setting, we’ll fell in one piece or dismantle in sections, then offer stump grinding or full stump removal to prevent regrowth. Our crews arrive with the right kit, protect surfaces, and complete site clearance with responsible waste removal. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, insured work, and a finish that looks like we were never there.
As tree removal contractors bermondsey area homeowners rely on, we plan for restricted parking, permit zones and busy streets around SE1 and SE16. Many sites have limited access through alleyways or communal entrances, so we tailor equipment choice and removal routes. We also consider nearby buildings and riverside winds that can increase risk on taller trees. If council checks are needed, we help you navigate requirements in the London Borough of Southwark.

A straightforward small tree can often be removed in half a day, including waste removal. Medium trees usually take one day, while large trees or sectional dismantling in tight Bermondsey access can take 1–2 days. Stump grinding is commonly 30–90 minutes per stump. Timescales depend on access routes, parking/permits, the need for rigging, and whether you want full site clearance or logs left on site.
Often you won’t need permission for routine tree removal on private land, but there are important exceptions. Trees may be protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or be within a conservation area, which can require consent or notice before work starts. If the tree is dangerous, emergency work may be allowed with evidence. We check protections, advise on the correct route, and can help prepare the information needed for Southwark.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on agreed elements of the completed work, such as reinstatement and the quality of stump grinding/removal to the specified depth. Tree removal itself is a one-off service, but we guarantee the job is carried out safely, as described in your quote, and the site is left tidy with waste removed unless you request otherwise. Any issues linked to our workmanship are put right promptly.
You can choose full waste removal, or we can cut timber into manageable logs for your fire pit or wood store where suitable. For the stump, popular options include stump grinding below soil level for turfing, full stump removal for paving or planting, or leaving a low stump if it won’t interfere with use. We’ll advise based on your plans for the space, access constraints, and whether you want replanting or a new landscaping layout.
