Tree removal in Bournemouth, in short

Clearcut removes trees across Bournemouth, from our base in nearby Ferndown. Because most Bournemouth gardens are tight, the majority of trees are taken down in sections by a qualified climber, with heavy pieces lowered on ropes. Where there's room, we fell in one piece. Every job includes a check with BCP Council for Tree Preservation Orders and conservation areas, all waste removed, and stump grinding if you want it.

Removing trees in Bournemouth gardens

Much of Bournemouth was laid out among pines in Victorian and Edwardian times, and many of those trees now tower over the houses built around them.

Large Scots and Monterey pines, oaks, beech and limes are common in older parts of town like Westbourne, the West Cliff, Talbot Woods and Boscombe. Newer areas such as Kinson, Throop and Littledown have more garden-sized trees, but plenty of leylandii and sycamore that have outgrown their space.

In almost every case the tree is close to a house, a fence or a neighbour's garden, so our climbers dismantle it from the top, lowering each section to the ground crew. On the biggest or most awkward trees we can bring in crane-assisted removal.

Bournemouth has many protected trees. We check BCP Council's records before quoting and handle any application.

Anything not covered here? Ask us and we'll give you a straight answer.

Ask us a question

How much does tree removal cost in Bournemouth?
It depends on the tree's size and species, how close it is to buildings, the access and whether the stump is ground out. We give a fixed price on a free visit. We are mid-range, and the price quoted is the price you pay.
Do I need permission to remove a tree in Bournemouth?
Only if it has a Tree Preservation Order or is in a conservation area, both handled by BCP Council. We check and apply for you.
Can you remove a large pine close to my house?
Yes. Large pines are taken down in sections from the top, with heavy pieces lowered on ropes, or with a crane where needed.
Do you grind out the stump?
Yes, usually on the same day. See stump removal in Bournemouth.
Which parts of Bournemouth do you cover?
All of it: BH1 to BH11, from Westbourne, Talbot Woods and Charminster to Boscombe, Southbourne, Kinson and Throop. See our Bournemouth tree surgeons page.

Max came out on a very wet day and within 2 hours of initially calling him. Gave his expert advice and opinion, and although couldn’t do the job, due to the tree being on council highway, Max gave me the contact of the councils approved contractor to carry out a pollard. I wouldn’t hesitate in using Max for any future work at my property.
