If a tree is blocking light, overhanging a roofline or showing signs of decline, professional tree care makes a real difference. Our West Wickham service covers tree felling, crown reduction, pruning, stump removal and hedge trimming. We regularly work around West Wickham High Street and near Sparrows Den, keeping gardens safe and looking their best. Emergency tree work is available when storms cause damage or instability.
West Wickham’s pleasant residential streets and bordering countryside mean many gardens have mature trees that need careful management. We’re used to working on 1930s semis and detached houses, as well as newer developments where access can be tighter. In areas such as Coney Hall and Hayes, we often deal with boundary trees, overgrown hedges and branches close to conservatories. Our approach balances safety, aesthetics and long-term tree health.
We start with a site assessment, discuss your priorities, then recommend the safest method and extent of work. Our team uses professional rigging and lowering techniques to protect lawns, fences and neighbouring gardens, and we leave the site tidy with waste removed. You’ll get clear communication on timings, access and parking needs, plus straightforward guidance on aftercare. Homeowners choose us for reliable workmanship and a respectful, considerate presence on site.
Working in the London Borough of Bromley, we plan for residential access, on-street parking and narrow side passages common around BR4. Soil conditions and exposed edges near open land can increase wind stress on taller trees, so we assess stability carefully. We also factor in neighbouring boundaries and shared canopies, which are common in West Wickham and Shirley. Our setup is designed to minimise disruption while keeping the worksite safe and controlled.

Costs vary by tree size, height, access, and whether rigging or traffic management is needed. In the West Wickham area, most jobs fall around £300–£1,500 per tree, with smaller pruning tasks sometimes closer to £200. Large dismantles, complex crown reductions, stump removal, or emergency call-outs can reach £2,500 per tree. We’ll confirm a range after a site visit and assessment.
Most tree surgery jobs take 1–2 days, depending on the scope and site constraints. A straightforward prune or hedge trim may be completed in a few hours, while a large felling or sectional dismantle can take a full day or more. Factors include tree height, proximity to buildings, waste removal volume, and access through side gates or over garages. Weather and emergency priorities can also affect scheduling.
Many garden tree works are permitted, but restrictions can apply if a tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or within a conservation area. In the London Borough of Bromley, you may need consent before pruning, felling, or carrying out significant crown reduction on protected trees. We’ll help check protections and advise on the right application route where needed, so your work stays compliant.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty covering workmanship on the completed tree surgery tasks we carry out, such as correct pruning cuts, agreed crown reduction specifications, and safe dismantling methods. It also covers issues arising from our work that affect safety or performance, subject to normal wear, extreme weather events, or subsequent alterations by others. We’ll explain what’s included in writing before work begins.
We tailor the work to your goals and the tree’s condition. Popular options include crown reduction for light and clearance, crown lifting above paths and driveways, formative pruning for younger trees, deadwood removal, and full felling where necessary. For finishing, we can arrange stump grinding, hedge trimming, and replanting advice to suit your garden. We’ll recommend the best option after assessing structure, species and setting.
