TREE CARE IN RUTLAND
Your space.
A considered approach.
Tree surgeons serving Rutland and surrounding areas.
A project can involve a single tree or several different jobs. You may want to reduce an overgrown crown, remove a stump and bring a hedge back into shape during the same visit. Explain the whole project when you contact us so the work can be considered together, including access, equipment and what needs to stay in place.
Our tree services include crown reductions, crown cleaning and thinning, deadwooding and pollarding where appropriate. Each has a different purpose. Pollarding is a particular management method for suitable trees, while selective pruning can address specific branches or crown spread. If the concern is high in the canopy, a climbing inspection may help assess details that cannot be adequately viewed from ground level.
We also handle enquiries for tree removal, site clearance and storm-damaged trees. On a larger plot, the route to the work can be as important as the work itself. Mention soft ground, field gates, slopes, narrow lanes and any access restrictions. For stump grinding, tell us whether the area is intended for planting, grass or another use so the required scope can be discussed.

Tree and hedge care across Rutland
Rutland County Council provides guidance on checking Tree Preservation Orders and trees in conservation areas. Its tree-work guidance also notes that some removal projects may need a Forestry Commission felling licence. Requirements depend on the trees and the proposed work, so a rural location or a large private plot should not be taken to mean that there are no restrictions.
For hedge maintenance and vegetation clearance, the proposed timing also matters. Active bird nests must not be damaged or destroyed, and checks may affect when work can proceed. Let us know about the hedge species if you know it, the current height and the result you would like. We welcome enquiries from Oakham, Uppingham and Rutland villages; send your postcode to confirm that we can help.
Rutland County Council: tree works and preservation ordersYOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
A little local
clarity.
Planning tree work in Rutland?
Here are a few useful starting points.
Do you cover Oakham and Uppingham?
Yes, we welcome enquiries from both towns and the wider Rutland area. Send the job's postcode and a description of the work so coverage, access and availability can be confirmed. We also serve Stamford in Lincolnshire and Peterborough in Cambridgeshire.
Can you clear an overgrown plot before landscaping?
Site clearance is one of our services. Explain which trees, shrubs or vegetation you want removed and what must remain. Include photographs, access information and any known restrictions. The proposed clearance and handling of material can then be discussed for your project.
Will pollarding suit any large tree?
No. Suitability depends on the species, condition, previous management and the intended result. A tree that has become too large for its setting needs an individual assessment; heavy cutting should not be assumed to be the right answer.
How do I check whether a Rutland tree is protected?
Rutland County Council's tree works and preservation orders page explains the checks and application routes. A TPO generally requires written consent, while certain conservation-area work usually needs six weeks' notice unless an exception applies. Check before arranging the work.
