From garden squares near St George's Square to riverside plots by Tate Britain, Pimlico properties often have mature trees close to buildings and boundaries. Fine Landscaping provides professional tree felling and sectional dismantling to protect paving, railings and neighbouring gardens. We also offer stump grinding, stump removal and complete site clearance. If you need urgent help after storm damage, we can attend for emergency work and insurance work.
Pimlico’s Regency townhouses, mansion blocks and period conversions frequently come with compact rear gardens, lightwells and shared access routes. That means removals are rarely a simple “drop and cut” job. Our team plans lifts, lowering and controlled rigging to avoid damage to brickwork, balconies and planted borders. We regularly support homeowners across Westminster, Victoria and Chelsea where access and parking require careful coordination.
We start with a site visit to assess tree condition, targets, access and waste routes, then recommend the safest method—felling where space allows or sectional dismantling where it doesn’t. All arisings are removed, and we can leave the site ready for replanting or landscaping. You’ll get clear communication, tidy working practices and documentation for insurance work when needed. Many clients choose us because we’re reliable, local, and we protect high-value finishes throughout the job.
Working in the City of Westminster often means restricted parking, narrow streets and managed access around mansion blocks. We plan loading, chipper placement and waste removal to minimise disruption, especially near Pimlico tube station and SW1 permit zones. Ground conditions vary between compacted courtyard soils and landscaped communal gardens, so we choose the right protection for lawns, paving and roots. Where access is limited, we use sectional dismantling and careful lowering to keep everything controlled.

Costs in Pimlico typically range from £350–£900 for small trees, £900–£2,500 for medium removals, and £2,500–£6,000+ for large or complex sectional dismantling near buildings. Stump grinding is often £120–£350 depending on diameter and access, while full stump removal can be higher due to excavation and disposal. Prices vary with height, rigging needs, waste volume, and SW1 access/parking constraints.
Many small tree removals can be completed in half a day, while medium jobs often take a full day including waste removal. Large trees in tight Pimlico gardens commonly take 1–3 days if sectional dismantling and complex rigging are required. Stump grinding usually takes 30–90 minutes per stump. Timescales depend on access through buildings, proximity to neighbours, the amount of timber, and whether emergency work is needed.
Often, routine garden work is permitted, but tree removal can be restricted if the tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sits within a conservation area. Parts of the City of Westminster have additional controls, so checks are essential before work starts. We help you identify likely restrictions, liaise with the council where required, and keep records for insurance work. If permission is needed, we’ll guide you through the application process.
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty on agreed landscaping reinstatement we complete (such as making good ground levels, re-turfing or re-laying disturbed areas). For stump grinding, we grind to the specified depth and remove grindings if requested; regrowth risk is discussed upfront depending on species and remaining roots. We also carry appropriate insurance and can provide documentation for insurance work and claims.
After stump grinding or stump removal, popular options include re-turfing, replanting a smaller ornamental tree, adding a new shrub bed, or extending paving for seating or bins. In Pimlico courtyards, homeowners often prefer low-maintenance planting schemes that suit period façades and limited light. We’ll advise on soil improvement, drainage and root barriers where needed, then leave the site level, tidy and ready for your chosen finish.
