Our Recent Tree Work in Romford
Crown Reduction – Gidea Park
We recently completed a crown reduction for a homeowner in Gidea Park whose mature tree was blocking light and overhanging neighbouring properties. The house was situated within a Conservation Area, so we completed the required paperwork and waited for approval. The work was conducted safely, preserving the tree’s structure and appearance, and in compliance with the law.
Emergency Tree Removal – Near Romford Town Hall
Following high winds, we carried out an urgent removal of a storm-damaged tree that posed a risk to a driveway and a public footpath. The tree was removed safely, and all debris was cleared the same day.
Rated 5 Stars Across Essex
“Highly recommend Kings Cuts Tree Services, the guys did an excellent, first-class job trimming and topping my large conifer hedge. Left the garden very tidy on completion. Best job we’ve ever had. Will definitely be using again. Thank you, Jason and the team.”
“Brilliant service over the years. We use Paul twice a year to keep our conifers in check, but he has also done amazing work across the garden, incl. removing a large ivy from a tree. Everything is always spotless - I cannot recommend them enough!”
The oak processionary moth (OPM) is a pest that harms oak trees and can irritate people with its toxic hairs. Specialists should always handle OPM nests in Romford and the wider Essex area. Our expert tree surgeons offer a dedicated OPM removal service, using specialist protective equipment and safe methods to eliminate nests, caterpillars, and contaminated material, protecting your trees, family, customers, and pets.
Working in line with current guidance for managing OPM in the UK, we can examine your oak trees, confirm the presence of OPM, and complete targeted removal and treatment to minimise any health risks and reduce the risk of further local spread. If you have noticed unusual caterpillars or webbed nests on your oaks, get in touch with our team as soon as possible. Avoid touching the tree, nests, or caterpillars, and keep children and pets away.

Jason King
After doing an Arborist college course in 2000, Jason hasn’t looked back. First working with larger tree companies, fulfilling council contracts on street/park trees as a lead climber, moving into railway contract climbing whilst building his own limited company, carrying out domestic and commercial tree works of every kind. Incorporating Kings Cuts Tree Services Ltd in 2014, and mostly estimating and office-based. With a 'bigger the better' attitude, I prefer larger crown reductions, large-section felling, and anything technically challenging when working on the tools.
