From overhanging crowns near Blackheath Village to storm-damaged trees close to Blackheath Common, removals here often need a careful, controlled approach. Fine Landscaping provides professional tree felling and sectional dismantling to protect roofs, fences and neighbouring gardens. We also handle stump grinding, stump removal and full site clearance. If you need urgent help, we offer emergency work and insurance-supported jobs.
Blackheath’s Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and period conversions often come with mature gardens and tight side access. We regularly work around shared driveways, delicate paving and established borders, keeping disruption low. Where access is restricted, sectional dismantling allows us to remove trees safely in manageable pieces. Homeowners in SE3 also value clean finishes, so waste removal and thorough clear-ups are standard.
We start with a practical site survey, checking access, targets, and the safest drop zones or rigging points. Our team uses professional equipment for controlled lowering, stump grinding and efficient waste handling, with clear risk management throughout. You’ll get a written scope of works, transparent options, and a tidy handover. Local clients choose us because we’re punctual, fully insured, and consistent from first visit to final sweep-up.
We’re used to working across the Royal Borough of Greenwich/London Borough of Lewisham, where parking, access widths and neighbour proximity can dictate the safest method. In streets near The Paragon and around Lee and Greenwich borders, we plan for careful lowering to avoid damage to period brickwork and garden walls. Ground conditions can vary from compacted lawns to established root zones, so stump grinding depth is agreed to suit replanting or paving. We also schedule work to reduce disruption on busier residential roads.

Costs depend on tree size, access, method (felling vs sectional dismantling) and waste removal. As a guide, small tree removals often start around £250–£600, while medium trees are commonly £600–£1,500. Large or complex dismantles near buildings can be £1,500–£3,500+. Stump grinding is typically £120–£450 depending on diameter and number of stumps. We provide a site-specific quote after inspection.
Many small removals can be completed in half a day, while a medium tree with waste removal is often a full day. Large trees or tight-access sectional dismantling may take 1–2 days, especially if rigging is needed. Stump grinding is usually 30–90 minutes per stump, depending on size and root flare. Timescales also change with parking distance, chipper access, and whether you want full site clearance.
Often, garden tree work is permitted, but restrictions can apply if the tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sits within a conservation area. Some parts of Blackheath have additional heritage considerations, so checks are important before any felling. We can help identify whether consent is required and advise on the application route. In emergencies (e.g., dangerous storm damage), different rules may apply, and we document the situation carefully.
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty on associated landscaping reinstatement we carry out (such as making good disturbed ground, re-laying affected edging or restoring access routes), subject to normal use and site conditions. Tree removal itself is completed to agreed specifications, with photos available for records and insurance. We also work fully insured and follow safe methods to minimise risk to property. Any concerns after completion are handled promptly.
After removal, you can choose stump grinding to below ground level, full stump removal for deeper excavation, or leaving the stump temporarily if access is limited. For the cleared space, popular options include re-turfing, new planting beds, gravel or resin-bound paths, or preparing a base for paving or a shed. We’ll advise based on light levels, drainage and how you want to use the garden. If you’re unsure, we can propose a few practical layouts and planting directions.
