Southampton's mature trees

Southampton's older suburbs were laid out around big trees, and many are now protected.

In Bassett, Highfield and around the Common, large oaks, beech and limes stand in gardens close to houses. Crown reductions and deadwood removal keep them in proportion, and where removal is needed it's done in sections. Many need consent from Southampton City Council first.

In terraced and semi-detached streets across Shirley, Portswood and Bitterne, gardens are small and access is through houses or narrow passages, so we plan carefully and carry brash out.

Our tracked stump grinder fits through narrow gates, and our 24-hour emergency service covers the city.

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.
