If a tree is blocking light, damaging paving, or has become unsafe after high winds, we can help. Our team works across BR2, including around Shortlands station and the surrounding roads leading towards Bromley and Beckenham. We handle everything from controlled tree felling to sectional dismantling in tighter gardens. All arisings are removed, and the site is left clean and usable.
Shortlands is known for larger Edwardian houses, Victorian villas and well-kept 1930s properties, often with mature trees close to boundaries and outbuildings. That mix of generous gardens and established planting can make access and lowering operations more technical. We’re used to working around conservatories, garages, patios and delicate lawns. Homeowners in the tree removal contractors shortlands area choose us for careful planning and a respectful approach to neighbours.
We start with a site visit to assess risks, access, and the best method: felling, sectional dismantling, or crane-free rigging where required. Stump grinding or full stump removal can be included to prevent regrowth and make replanting or landscaping straightforward. We provide clear paperwork for insurance work and can respond quickly for emergency work. With trained operatives, the right equipment and a tidy finish, local clients know the job will be done properly.
Gardens in Shortlands often have limited side access and on-street parking, so we plan equipment loads and chipper placement carefully. We’re familiar with working near rail-side properties by Shortlands station and the quieter roads towards Bickley and Ravensbourne. Ground conditions can vary from soft lawns to compacted driveways, so we use protective boarding where needed. As tree removal contractors in London Borough of Bromley, we also consider neighbour proximity and noise timing.

Costs vary by size, access and whether dismantling is needed. As a guide, small tree removals often start around £250–£500, while medium trees commonly fall between £600–£1,200. Large or complex sectional dismantles near buildings can be £1,500–£3,500+. Stump grinding is typically £120–£350 depending on diameter and depth. Waste removal and parking constraints in BR2 can affect pricing.
Many small removals can be completed in half a day, including tidy-up. Medium trees often take a full day, especially where sectional dismantling and rigging are required. Large trees, multiple trees, or jobs needing careful lowering over sheds and conservatories can take 2–3 days. Timescales depend on access, proximity to structures, stump treatment, and whether you want full site clearance and waste removal included.
Often you can remove a tree on your own land, but there are important exceptions. Some trees are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or are within a conservation area, which can require consent or notice before work starts. We’ll help you check the relevant restrictions with the London Borough of Bromley and advise on the correct process. Emergency work for dangerous trees may be allowed, with evidence recorded.
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty on associated landscaping reinstatement we carry out (such as re-turfing, re-edging or repaired paving after access). For stump grinding, we grind to an agreed depth and can advise on backfilling and replanting to reduce settlement. We also carry appropriate insurance and provide clear documentation, especially for insurance work and neighbour-sensitive jobs.
You can choose stump grinding (most popular) to below ground level, or full stump removal where excavation is practical. After that, we can backfill with topsoil, prepare for turf, or create a planting bed for a replacement tree or shrubs. If you’re redesigning, we can also level the area, improve drainage, and clear borders. We’ll recommend the best option based on your garden use and soil conditions.
