We remove small to medium trees safely - felling, sectioning, and clearing the lot. Dead trees, dangerous trees, or just trees in the wrong place. Stump removal available too.

### When Trees Need Removing

Trees die, get diseased, outgrow their space, or turn out to be planted somewhere stupid. Sometimes they're dangerous, blocking light, damaging structures, or just not what you want in your garden anymore.

Removing a tree properly means felling it safely without damaging anything, cutting it up, removing all the wood and debris, and dealing with the stump. It's not a small job.

### What We Remove

Small to medium trees that can be felled safely with standard equipment. Dead or dying trees, trees causing problems, badly positioned trees, non-native invasive species. We work methodically and safely, ensuring nothing gets damaged in the process.

We're honest about our limits. Very large trees, trees in tight spots near buildings, trees near power lines, or complex situations need qualified tree surgeons with specialist equipment and insurance. We'll tell you if yours needs that.

> 💡 **Pro tip:** Check for Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or conservation area restrictions before removing any tree. Fines for unauthorized removal can be massive.

Frequently Asked Questions about Tree Removal in Crediton

Do I need permission to remove a tree?

Depends. Trees in conservation areas or with Tree Preservation Orders need permission. Trees over certain sizes might need notice to the council. We'll advise, but you should check with your local planning authority first.

Can you remove really large trees?

We handle small to medium trees that can be felled safely without specialist equipment. Large trees, trees near buildings or power lines, or complex fellings need qualified tree surgeons. We'll be honest about what needs a specialist.

What happens to the wood?

We remove it all. If it's usable firewood and you want it, you can keep some. Otherwise we dispose of it properly at licensed waste facilities. Some goes for chipping, some for timber recycling.

Do you remove the stump?

We can grind stumps out or arrange for specialist stump grinding. Small stumps we can dig out. It's usually quoted separately as it's different equipment and skills.
