Response within 24 hours
Mature trees around Keston Common and the lanes near Keston Ponds can look stunning, but they also need careful management. Our arborists carry out pruning, crown reduction and safe tree felling to reduce risk and improve structure. If a storm brings down a limb, we can respond fast with emergency tree work. We also offer stump removal to leave the area ready for replanting or landscaping.
Keston’s mix of period cottages, large detached houses and country homes often comes with established gardens and long boundaries. That means trees can overhang neighbours, shade lawns or interfere with sheds, garages and driveways. We regularly support homeowners across BR2, plus nearby Hayes and Farnborough, where access can be tight and trees are close to buildings. Our approach balances safety, appearance and the long-term health of each tree.
We start with a site visit to assess condition, targets and access, then recommend the most appropriate works. Every job is planned for safe rigging, controlled lowering and tidy removal, with clear waste disposal and optional wood chipping. You’ll get straightforward communication, punctual scheduling and respectful working practices around your home. Many local clients choose us because we work neatly, protect lawns and borders, and deliver consistent results.
We’re used to the London Borough of Bromley’s mix of rural-feel lanes and residential streets, where parking and chipper access can affect set-up. Ground conditions around commons and ponds can be softer, so we protect lawns and manage vehicle loading carefully. Many Keston properties have mature planting close to boundaries, so we plan reductions and pruning to minimise neighbour impact. If permissions or protections apply, we’ll guide you through the checks before work starts.

Tree surgery costs in Keston typically range from £200–£2,500 per tree, with most homeowners paying around £300–£1,500 depending on the work. Light pruning and hedge trimming sit at the lower end, while large dismantles, complex crown reductions and stump removal can increase costs. Price is influenced by tree size, access, waste removal, proximity to buildings and whether emergency work is required.
Most tree surgery jobs take 1–2 days, but smaller pruning or hedge trimming can be completed in a few hours. Timescales depend on tree height, number of stems, the need for rigging, and how far arisings must be carried to the truck. Stump removal adds time, especially for larger diameters. We’ll confirm the expected duration after assessing access and the scope of work.
Often, routine pruning and maintenance don’t require planning permission, but some trees are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sit within a conservation area. In those cases, you may need consent or to give notice before work begins. We’ll help you identify whether protections apply and can advise on the right next steps. Where permissions are needed, we plan timelines accordingly to keep everything compliant.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on workmanship for the tree surgery services we carry out, covering issues that arise from how the work was performed. It includes things like correct execution of agreed pruning cuts, safe dismantling methods and tidy completion to the specified scope. It doesn’t cover future storm damage, disease progression or changes in ground conditions. We’ll explain exactly what’s covered in writing before we start.
Options include crown reduction, crown lifting, formative pruning, deadwood removal, full tree felling, stump grinding, and hedge trimming to restore clean lines. For finish, you can choose complete waste removal, log retention for firewood, or woodchip left for beds and paths where suitable. We’ll recommend the best approach based on the tree species, your garden layout and light needs, then schedule works to minimise disruption to borders and lawns.
