Our Recent Tree Work

Crown Reduction – Gidea Park

We completed a crown reduction in Gidea Park where a 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 legal framework.

Emergency Tree Removal – Crow Green

A recent storm caused some damage to the gorgeous olive tree in the garden. Two large branches had been twisted and broken, lying across the fence. In addition to removing these, the tree needed to be pruned to prevent future damage. Two tree surgeons attended and checked in on the work required before starting. They quickly removed the broken branches and trimmed the others back by a couple of meters. They cleared up all the branches and debris very thoroughly & quickly, leaving the garden very tidy. “A great job & a reasonable price - recommended!”

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!”

OPM (Oak Processionary Moth) Removal

Oak processionary moth (OPM) is a cheeky pest that infects oak trees and can cause bad irritation to people. Trained professionals should always handle suspected nests. Our tree surgeons can offer a dedicated OPM removal service, using protective equipment and safe procedures to remove nests, caterpillars, and contaminated material, protecting your trees, family, customers, and pets.

Working in line with existing guidance for handling OPM in England, we can survey your oak trees, confirm the presence of OPM, and carry out trained removal and treatment to reduce any health risks and prevent further spread in the area. If you have noticed unfamiliar caterpillars or webbed nests on your oaks, reach out to our team. Avoid touching the tree, nests, or caterpillars, and keep children away.

Local Regulations & Permissions

Some tree work requires permission before work can commence. Regulations are in place to protect specific trees and local environments, and failing to comply can result in penalties.

Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs)

Trees protected by a TPO cannot be cut, pruned or removed without council consent.

Private gardens
Commercial properties
Landlords and managed properties

Unauthorised work on a covered tree is a criminal offence and can lead to weighty fines. Applications should be presented to the local council with full details of the proposed work.

Conservation Areas

If your property is within a conservation area, you probably need to give the council six weeks’ notice before carrying out work on most trees.

Assess the tree’s importance
Decide whether further protection (such as a TPO) is needed

If no objection is raised within the six-week period, work can typically proceed.

Protected Trees and Size Limits

Certain trees are protected based on species and size. Requirements can vary depending on location.

Nesting birds (protected under the Wildlife & Countryside Act)
Bat habitats (strictly protected in the UK)
Trees contributing to local biodiversity

How We Help

We can check whether your property or tree is affected and guide you through the correct process before any work starts.

Checking if your tree is subject to a TPO
Confirming if your property is within a conservation area
Handling council applications and notices
Advising on the best course of action for your tree

Our goal is to make the process simple and stress-free while ensuring full compliance with local regulations.
