Tree surgery in Portsmouth, in short

Clearcut covers Portsmouth and the PO1 to PO6 postcodes, including Southsea, Fratton, Milton, Eastney, North End, Hilsea, Cosham, Drayton and Farlington. Portsmouth is one of the most densely built cities in the country, so garden trees grow close to houses and access is often through the house. Several areas, including much of Southsea, are conservation areas. Tree work is regulated by Portsmouth City Council; we handle TPO and conservation area applications.

Trees in Portsmouth

In Portsmouth, the hardest part of many jobs is getting in and out.

In terraced streets across Southsea, Fratton and North End, back gardens are reached through the house or a narrow alley. We plan the route on the visit, protect floors and paths, and carry every piece out. Trees close to houses are taken down in sections.

In Southsea and Old Portsmouth, conservation areas mean six weeks' notice before work. On Portsdown Hill's slopes at Cosham and Drayton, gardens are bigger, with mature trees and chalk soils.

Great service and price. Will certainly use Clearcut for my logs in future. Thank you Max for your communication and courteous service, so sadly lacking in these dreadful times!

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.
