Response within 24 hours
From overgrown garden trees to storm-damaged limbs, we provide professional tree removal across SE11. Our team regularly works near The Oval cricket ground and Oval tube station, where access and parking can be tight. We carry out tree felling, sectional dismantling and emergency call-outs with safety as the priority. All arisings are removed, leaving your garden ready for the next step.
Oval’s Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and mansion flats often come with compact rear gardens, shared boundaries and mature planting. That means tree removal contractors in the Oval area must plan carefully to protect walls, sheds, patios and neighbouring properties. We’re experienced with narrow side returns, basement lightwells and restricted drop zones. Whether you’re in Kennington, Vauxhall or Stockwell, we tailor the method to your plot and access.
We start with a site assessment, agree the safest dismantling or felling approach, then protect surfaces and planting before work begins. Stumps can be ground out below soil level or fully removed where replanting or paving is planned. We provide waste removal and site clearance as standard, and can support insurance work after storm damage. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, tidy workmanship and reliable scheduling from our base just 20 minutes away.
Working in the London Borough of Lambeth often means controlled parking, narrow streets and limited access to rear gardens. Around Kennington Park and the SE11 terraces, we frequently use sectional dismantling to avoid damage and keep noise and disruption down. We plan loading and waste removal to suit local restrictions and neighbour proximity. If a tree sits near a boundary or public footpath, we organise the right safety measures and documentation.

Costs in Oval vary with tree size, access, and whether sectional dismantling is needed. As a guide, small tree removals may start around £250–£600, while medium trees are often £600–£1,500. Large or complex dismantles near buildings commonly range from £1,500–£3,500+. Stump grinding is typically £120–£450 depending on diameter and depth. Waste removal and parking constraints in SE11 can affect pricing.
Most straightforward jobs take half a day to a full day, including waste removal and a tidy-up. A small tree with stump grinding may be completed in 2–4 hours, while a larger tree requiring sectional dismantling can take 1–2 days. Timescales depend on access through the property, proximity to buildings, the amount of rigging required, and whether you want full stump removal or just grinding.
Many garden tree removals are permitted, but some trees are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sit within a conservation area, which is common around period streets. In those cases, you may need council consent before work starts. We’ll help you check protections and advise on the correct route with Lambeth. Emergency work for immediate safety risks can sometimes be handled differently, with evidence recorded.
We back our work with a 10-year warranty on workmanship for the landscaping elements we complete as part of the job, such as reinstatement of disturbed ground, site clearance standards, and any agreed making-good. Tree removal itself is carried out to recognised safety and industry practices, with risk assessments and careful protection of surrounding features. If an issue arises related to our workmanship, we return promptly to put it right.
After stump grinding or stump removal, popular options include re-turfing, replanting (a smaller tree or shrubs), creating a new bed, or extending a patio or path. In Oval’s compact gardens, homeowners often choose low-maintenance planting or permeable finishes to improve drainage. We’ll advise on soil depth after grinding, whether root barriers are sensible near boundaries, and the best finish to match your garden style.
