From Priory Gardens to the roads around Orpington station, mature trees are a big part of local gardens. Our team provides careful pruning, crown reduction and safe tree felling to reduce risk and improve light. We also tackle storm-damaged limbs quickly, with emergency call-outs when needed. If you’re in BR5 or BR6, we’ll assess access and deliver a plan that suits your property.
Orpington’s mix of 1930s semis, larger detached houses and modern estates often comes with established boundaries, tall conifers and tight side access. In places like Petts Wood and St Mary Cray, we regularly work near sheds, garages, conservatories and overhead lines. We tailor cuts to the species and structure, aiming for strong regrowth rather than harsh topping. Where space is limited, we use sectional dismantling and controlled lowering to protect lawns and paving.
We start with a site visit, explain the options, then carry out the work with qualified climbers and proper safety controls. All waste can be chipped and removed, and stumps ground out where required. You’ll get straightforward communication, punctual arrival and a thorough clean-down of paths and borders. Homeowners choose us for tree surgery Orpington area jobs because we’re fully insured and consistent about safe, tidy workmanship.
Working across the London Borough of Bromley, we’re used to narrow drives, parked cars and limited turning space near the High Street and residential closes. We plan equipment and chipper placement to keep access safe and disruption low. Many gardens have mixed planting and mature hedges, so we protect borders and use ground mats where needed. If council constraints apply, we’ll help you navigate them before work starts.

Costs vary by height, species, access and whether waste removal or stump grinding is included. In Orpington, typical tree surgery jobs often fall between £300–£1,500 per tree, with smaller pruning starting around £200. Larger dismantles, complex rigging near buildings, or multiple stems can reach £2,500 per tree. We’ll inspect the tree and provide a clear, itemised estimate.
Most jobs take 1–2 days, but straightforward pruning can sometimes be completed in a few hours. Timescales depend on tree size, the need for climbing and rigging, access for chippers, and whether stump removal is required. Weather and nesting season considerations can also affect scheduling. After a site visit, we’ll confirm the likely duration and how we’ll minimise disruption.
Many routine works, such as pruning for safety or removing deadwood, can be carried out without formal permission. However, some trees are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sit within a conservation area, which may require consent or notice. We check the relevant constraints and advise on the correct route before starting. If paperwork is needed, we can help you prepare it.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship where applicable, covering issues caused by our cutting, removal or site practices (for example, avoidable damage linked to our work). Tree biology and future growth are influenced by weather, pests and site conditions, so we’ll also give aftercare guidance to support healthy regrowth. Any concerns after completion are handled promptly and professionally.
We can shape trees with crown reduction, crown thinning, formative pruning or selective limb removal, depending on your goals for light, clearance and appearance. For hedges, we offer neat trimming and height reduction. Waste can be removed from site, or chipped into mulch for borders if you’d like to keep it. We’ll recommend the best approach based on species, structure and your garden layout.
