Common questions
Tree surgery FAQs
Do I need permission to remove a tree?
Some trees may be protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or located within conservation areas. If you are unsure, we recommend checking with your local authority before work begins. We can provide guidance during your consultation.
Are you fully insured for tree work?
Yes. KC Landscapes carries full public liability insurance and undertakes tree work in accordance with health and safety best practice.
How much does tree surgery cost?
Costs depend on factors such as tree size, access, complexity and waste removal requirements. We provide clear, site-specific quotations following a free assessment.
Do you remove all waste after tree work?
Yes. We remove and responsibly recycle all green waste, converting it into mulch or biomass wherever possible.
Can you carry out emergency tree removal after a storm?
Yes. We provide responsive storm damage services to make sites safe and remove hazardous trees or branches. Call 07535 523 531 for emergency callouts.
What is stump grinding and is it necessary?
Stump grinding removes the remaining tree stump after felling. It prevents regrowth, improves safety and allows the ground to be reused for turf, planting or development.
