From overgrown garden trees to storm-damaged limbs, we handle removals with care across SE22. Our team regularly works near Lordship Lane and around Peckham Rye, where access can be tight and neighbours are close by. We plan each job to protect fences, patios, sheds and planting. All arisings are removed, leaving your garden clean and usable.
East Dulwich has plenty of mature trees alongside Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions with long, narrow gardens. That often calls for sectional dismantling rather than straight felling, especially near conservatories and shared boundaries. We’re used to working around rear access alleys, side returns and basement lightwells. If you’re in Dulwich Village, Nunhead or Herne Hill, we’ll tailor the method to your property layout.
We start with a site visit, risk assessment and a clear written scope covering tree felling, dismantling, stump removal and waste removal. Our crews use professional rigging and controlled lowering to minimise disruption, with optional stump grinding to below ground level for re-turfing or replanting. We can also provide emergency work and insurance work with photos and supporting notes. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy finishes and a straightforward, safety-first approach.
As tree removal contractors east dulwich area homeowners rely on, we plan for narrow streets, controlled parking and limited rear access common around SE22. Southwark’s mix of mature street trees and garden specimens can mean careful lowering over sheds, extensions and neighbouring fences. We also factor in ground conditions for stump grinding, including roots near drains and older garden walls. Our team schedules deliveries and chipper use to keep disruption to a minimum.

We’ll outline the expected duration before starting and keep you updated if conditions change.

Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty on agreed elements of the completed works, such as reinstatement and making-good where specified in your quote. Tree removal itself is a one-off operation, but we guarantee safe methods, tidy completion and proper waste disposal.

After stump grinding, many East Dulwich homeowners choose topsoil and turf for a quick lawn repair, or replant with a smaller ornamental tree or shrubs. If you’re planning a patio, shed base or path, we can remove grindings, add compacted sub-base and leave a firm level surface. We’ll help you choose the best finish based on drainage, shade, and how you use the garden.
