If a tree is overhanging your roof, blocking light, or storm-damaged, we provide safe removal with minimal disruption. We work across SE13, including around Hither Green station and Mountsfield Park, planning each job to suit access, neighbours and traffic. From controlled felling to sectional dismantling, we keep gardens, patios and fences protected. All arisings are removed, leaving your outside space usable straight away.
Hither Green’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and 1930s semis often come with mature rear gardens and tight side access. That’s why our tree removal contractors Hither Green area team routinely uses rigging and sectional techniques to move timber safely through narrow passages. We’re also used to working near boundary lines where branches cross into neighbouring gardens. Whether you’re in Lee, Grove Park or closer to Lewisham, we tailor the method to your property layout.
We start with a site assessment, identify hazards, and agree a clear scope for felling, dismantling, stump removal and site clearance. On the day, we protect lawns and paving, control drop zones, and keep noise and mess to a minimum. Emergency work is available for fallen trees and dangerous limbs, and we can support insurance work with photos and documentation. Homeowners choose us for straightforward communication, punctual crews and a consistently tidy finish.
As tree removal contractors in London Borough of Lewisham, we factor in controlled parking, narrow roads and shared driveways common around SE13.

Where required, we coordinate waste removal and access times to keep disruption low.

Many small trees can be removed in half a day, including tidy-up and waste removal. Medium removals with sectional dismantling usually take one day, while large trees or multiple trees may take two days or more. Timescales depend on access (side passage vs rear-only), proximity to buildings, the amount of rigging required, and whether stump grinding and full site clearance are included. We confirm timings before booking.
Often, you can remove a tree in your garden without formal permission, but there are important exceptions. Some trees are protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs), and properties within conservation areas may require notice before work. Lewisham rules can vary by street and boundary. We’ll help you check protections and advise on the correct route before starting, so you avoid delays or potential enforcement issues.
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty for the agreed scope, covering issues caused by our installation or removal methods (for example, problems arising from stump grinding backfill or reinstatement we’ve carried out). It doesn’t cover new tree growth from neighbouring roots, future storm damage, or pre-existing structural issues. You’ll receive clear paperwork describing what’s included and how to raise any concern.
After stump grinding or stump removal, you can choose topsoil and seed for lawn reinstatement, new planting (shrubs or a replacement tree in a better position), or a hard finish such as gravel, paving or a small shed base. If roots have lifted paving, we can advise on relaying and levelling as part of site clearance. We’ll recommend the best option based on drainage, shade and how you use the garden.
