Our 30-mile radius from Amersham takes in the whole of north-west and west London, and the A413, A40 and M25 put boroughs like Hillingdon, Harrow and Ealing within an easy run. We're regularly in Northwood, Pinner, Ruislip, Eastcote, Uxbridge, Ickenham, Harefield, Stanmore, Greenford and Ealing — suburban London streets where the tree work is less about big open drop zones and more about careful rigging, ground protection and keeping the neighbours onside.
London site visits are usually within a few working days, and we book work around traffic rather than pretending it doesn't exist — early starts are normal so the crew is set up before the roads clog. Dangerous trees, storm damage and limbs over a roof or public footway are prioritised; a photo sent with your call gets you the quickest honest answer on timing.
North-west London is dominated by interwar semis and terraces with long, narrow rear gardens, no rear vehicle access and a shared side alley — plus Edwardian villas in Ealing and Harrow with large mature garden trees, and modern flats and estates where the tree sits in shared or managed grounds. Rear-garden work almost always means dismantling in small sections, lowering everything on ropes, and carrying arisings through the house or a 900mm side gate to the chipper on the street.
The most common London requests are crown reductions and crown lifts on sycamore, lime, London plane and horse chestnut shading small gardens; removal of self-seeded sycamore and ash growing tight against walls, garages and boundary fences; overhanging-branch disputes with neighbours cut back cleanly to the boundary line; leylandii and laurel hedge reductions on party boundaries; stump grinding where the ground is being paved or turfed; and urgent make-safe work on trees over pavements, cars and conservatory roofs.
The full range of tree surgery, hedge and grounds work across HA, UB, W, NW, TW. Every service quoted with a free site visit and a fixed written price.
Reduce the size, weight and density of your tree's canopy — protecting the tree's long-term health, your property, and the light in your garden — done to proper arboricultural standards.
Full tree removals carried out cleanly and safely — including tight-access section dismantling, TPO paperwork handled for you, and every last piece of waste taken away.
Fallen, split, hung-up or leaning trees made safe quickly — with a local, fully qualified team that turns up, works cleanly and clears the site before we leave.
Ground below surface level so you can reclaim the space — lawn, patio, driveway, planting bed or fence line — without a stump in the way and without the roots ripping up whatever comes next.
Crisp, uniform hedges — trimmed to the shape and height you want, with all clippings removed and the boundary left looking properly finished.
Controlled felling of larger trees where space genuinely allows — cut cleanly to the ground, brash chipped, timber removed or logged for you, site left properly tidy.
Regular, sensible tree care that keeps mature trees safe, healthy and in shape — before small problems turn into big ones you'd rather not pay for.
Repeat pruning cycles that keep large trees at a manageable height and volume for decades — without repeatedly removing and replanting mature amenity trees.
New fence lines and fresh turf to finish the garden properly — either after tree work has cleared the ground, or as a standalone rebuild of tired, sagging or bare boundaries.
Most of our London work has no rear vehicle access. Sectional dismantling with lowering ropes, ground and patio protection, and hand-carrying arisings out through the side gate is the standard method, planned at the free survey stage.
London boroughs protect trees heavily and conservation-area coverage is dense. We check status with the borough before quoting and prepare and submit the application or 6-week conservation-area notice for you.
Chipper and tipper parked tidily, cones out, pavement kept clear and swept, and neighbours spoken to before we start on a boundary tree. On busy roads we'll advise where a parking suspension or permit is needed.
London jobs generate a lot of arisings and nowhere to leave them. Everything goes with us under our Environment Agency Waste Carrier registration, and the site is raked down before we leave.
Property age, tree stock, soil and climate all shape the work here. These are the things we see most often across HA, UB, W, NW, TW.
The classic north-west London garden is long, narrow and reachable only through the house or a side alley. Nothing can be felled whole. Work is done in small sections from the top down, lowered on ropes over glass and planting, then carried out by hand — slower, but the only safe way.
Sycamore and ash colonise the base of walls, garages, fences and outbuildings across London and can be well established before anyone notices. Removing them properly means cutting to ground level and grinding or treating the stump so it doesn't regrow into the brickwork.
You may prune back to the boundary line, but you can't lean over into a neighbour's garden or damage a protected tree, and the cuttings legally belong to the tree's owner. We cut cleanly to the line, explain what's permitted, and can speak to the neighbour if that helps keep things civil.
Large parts of Ealing, Harrow, Hillingdon and Richmond are conservation areas with additional protection for any tree over 75mm. Unauthorised works can bring enforcement, so we confirm status and get consent in writing before touching the tree.
Rigging over a public footway or working from the road usually needs cones, signage and sometimes a suspended bay. We plan the set-up at survey so the job doesn't stall on the morning, and keep the footway clear and swept throughout.
A quick chat on 07777 722212 (or a message with a photo) is usually enough to tell you whether it's straightforward, whether it's likely to need council paperwork, and roughly what a site visit will involve. No pressure, no automated call centre.
We come out to look at the tree, the access, the drop zones, overhead lines, parking and anything sensitive nearby. On protected trees we photograph the condition and note the works needed for the application.
You get a clear written price — fixed for the job, or a day rate if that suits the work better — with the method, waste plan and timing spelled out. No 'from £X' figures and no surprises on the invoice.
We agree a date that works for you and, where the tree has a Tree Preservation Order or sits in a conservation area, we prepare and submit the application or 5-day notification on your behalf as standard.
The crew arrives on time, protects the ground and beds, uses ropes and rigging where needed, chips and removes all arisings under our Environment Agency waste carrier registration, and rakes the site down before leaving.

Yes — north-west and west London fall inside our 30-mile working radius from Amersham. That includes Harrow, Hillingdon, Ruislip, Northwood, Pinner, Uxbridge, Ickenham, Stanmore, Greenford and Ealing.
Yes — that's the norm on London jobs. We dismantle in sections, lower everything on ropes and hand-carry arisings out through the side gate or house to the chipper on the street.
Price depends on species, size, access, rigging, waste volume and whether the tree is protected. We survey for free and give a fixed written quote before any work — no 'from £X' figures.
Yes, as standard. We check the tree's status with the borough, then prepare and submit the application or conservation-area notification on your behalf and wait for consent.
Where the tree isn't protected, you may prune growth back to your boundary line. We cut cleanly to the line and explain what is and isn't permitted — including that the cuttings legally remain the tree owner's property.
Yes — trees down, split limbs, branches over cars, roofs or pavements are prioritised. Call 07777 722212 with a photo for the fastest answer on timing.
Sometimes, on busier roads or where we must work from the carriageway. We flag it at survey so it's sorted before the crew arrives.
