Our Tree & Hedge Removal Services
Tree Felling & Complete Tree Removal
Best for: Diseased, dead, dangerous, or unwanted trees.
Tree felling requires careful planning and expert handling to ensure safety and minimal impact on surrounding areas. We offer:
- Straight tree felling (if space allows).
- Sectional dismantling (for trees in confined spaces).
- Safe removal of trees near buildings, power lines, or roads.
When is Tree Removal Necessary?
- The tree is dead, diseased, or structurally unstable.
- It is blocking light, damaging foundations, or interfering with utilities.
- The tree is in the way of landscaping, extensions, or new builds.
Hedge Removal & Clearance
Best for: Clearing overgrown or unwanted hedgerows.
Overgrown hedges can take up valuable space, block sunlight, and become difficult to maintain. Our hedge removal service includes:
- Complete hedge removal & root extraction to prevent regrowth.
- Clearing invasive species like brambles or bamboo.
- Preparing the area for replanting, fencing, or construction.
Planning to replant? We can advise on new hedge planting or install fencing and screening as a replacement.
Stump Removal & Grinding
Best for: Fully clearing a space for replanting or development.
After a tree or hedge is removed, the stump may remain in the ground, posing an obstruction. We provide:
- Stump grinding (fastest method for stump clearance).
- Full stump and root system removal (if required).
- Soil preparation for replanting or hardscaping.
Want to repurpose the area? We offer landscaping services to restore the space after removal.
Emergency & Dangerous Tree Removal

Fallen or unstable trees pose serious risks to property and public safety. Our 24/7 emergency response team provides:
- Rapid tree removal for storm-damaged trees.
- Controlled dismantling of hazardous trees.
- Emergency clearance of blocked roads or driveways.
If a tree is near power lines or public spaces, we coordinate with local authorities to ensure safe removal.
Tree Preservation Orders (TPO) & Legal Compliance
Best for: Protected trees & conservation areas.
Some trees in Sussex are protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or fall within Conservation Areas, requiring permission for removal. We:
- Check for TPOs before removal.
