If a tree in your Acocks Green garden has grown too big, gone dead, started to lean or is simply in the wrong place, we can take it down safely. We fell trees in sections or in one piece where there is room, and we clear the timber and green waste afterwards so you are left with a tidy garden.
Many homes around the Warwick Road corridor are inter-war semis and terraces with sizeable back gardens, and the trees at the bottom of them have often outgrown the space. We are based nearby in Hall Green, so we know the sort of plot we will be working in.
Most of the felling we are asked about in this part of Birmingham involves trees planted for a modest garden that have simply kept on growing. Tall conifers and firs are the usual culprits, throwing deep shade over lawns and dropping needles into gutters, along with old fruit trees and self-seeded sycamores that have reached a size nobody ever planned for when the garden was laid out.
Where a tree is dead, diseased, storm-damaged or leaning towards the house or a neighbour's fence, taking it down is often the sensible answer rather than waiting for the next gale to decide for you. We look at how the tree is standing, what is underneath and around it, and then explain honestly whether it needs to come down or whether lighter work would do.
Terraced and semi-detached plots in Acocks Green rarely give a tree room to land, so the usual approach is to climb and dismantle it in sections, lowering each piece under control. Where there is a clear drop zone, a tree can sometimes be felled in one piece, and we will tell you plainly which method suits your garden and why we have chosen it.
Access matters too. Many of these gardens can only be reached through the house or down a narrow side path, so we plan where the timber will be carried, where the chipper can stand and how to protect your lawn, patio and fences. Everything is cut up, logged or chipped and then taken away, unless you would rather keep the logs for your own use.
After felling, the stump can be left low or ground out by arrangement, depending on whether you plan to lawn, pave or replant the spot. Before any work in Acocks Green we advise checking with the council whether the tree has a tree preservation order or sits in a conservation area, as permission may be needed first. We also cover Hall Green, Yardley and Solihull.
Based in Hall Green, so we are never far from the gardens we work in.
We look at the job before we price it, so you know what is involved.
Branches, clippings and rubbish from our jobs are cleared and the garden left tidy.

Not always, but you should check. A tree may be protected by a tree preservation order, or it may stand in a conservation area, and either can mean you must apply to the council before work starts. We suggest asking the council first, and we can talk through what you need to tell them.
Yes. Tall conifers are common in the gardens here and we remove them in sections so nothing drops onto the neighbouring plot. It helps to let the neighbour know the day we are coming, as we may need to work from one side or check the boundary.
Yes, timber is logged and green waste is removed as part of the job. If you would like to keep the logs for a wood burner or fire pit, just say so beforehand and we will stack them where you want them rather than taking them away.
