From overgrown garden trees to storm-damaged limbs, we provide professional removal across SE15. We regularly work near Peckham Rye Park and around Queen’s Road, where gardens can be compact and boundaries close. Our team plans every cut to protect fences, sheds, paving and neighbouring properties. You’ll get clear communication, safe working practices and a clean finish.
Peckham’s mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and converted warehouses often means tight side access, shared alleyways and mature trees close to buildings. In Nunhead and East Dulwich, we frequently see tall specimens that need controlled sectional dismantling rather than straight felling. We tailor equipment choice and rigging to the property layout, keeping disruption low. If access is limited, we organise workable routes and loading points in advance.
We start with a site assessment, risk checks and a method statement, then carry out tree felling or sectional dismantling as appropriate. Stump grinding and stump removal can follow immediately, with full site clearance and waste removal included. For urgent situations, we offer emergency work and can assist with insurance work documentation. Homeowners trust us for punctual arrivals, careful protection of surfaces, and a tidy handover.
Working in the London Borough of Southwark means adapting to narrow streets, parking controls and limited loading space, especially near Peckham Library and busy routes. Many SE15 gardens have mixed ground conditions and old hard landscaping that can affect stump grinding depth and machine access. We use compact equipment where needed and protect paving, steps and shared paths. Our planning keeps neighbours informed and reduces noise and mess.

Costs vary by height, spread, access and whether the tree needs sectional dismantling. As a guide, small tree removals often start around £250–£450, medium trees commonly fall between £500–£1,200, and large or complex removals can be £1,500–£3,000+. Stump grinding is typically £120–£350 depending on diameter and access. Emergency work may cost more due to urgency and out-of-hours attendance.
Many straightforward jobs take half a day, while larger trees or those requiring careful rigging can take a full day or more. Sectional dismantling near buildings, greenhouses or overhead lines increases time. Stump grinding is often completed in 30–90 minutes, but multiple stumps or restricted access can extend this. We’ll confirm timings after a site visit and plan around parking, neighbour proximity and waste removal logistics.
Most garden tree work doesn’t need planning permission, 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 prior notice before work starts. We can help check the status with the London Borough of Southwark and advise on the correct route. If permission is needed, we’ll support the paperwork and scheduling to stay compliant.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship related to reinstatement and ground finish where agreed (for example, backfilling and making good after stump removal). Tree removal itself is a one-off service, but we guarantee safe, professional execution and a tidy site clearance. If you choose stump grinding, we’ll confirm the target depth and finish beforehand. Any issues linked to our workmanship will be put right promptly.
After stump grinding, you can re-turf, replant, create a new bed, or lay paving or gravel depending on your garden plans. We can remove grindings, backfill with topsoil, and prepare a level base for lawn or hard landscaping. Popular choices in Peckham include low-maintenance planting, small patio extensions, and raised beds for compact gardens. We’ll recommend the best option based on light levels, drainage and intended use.
