Tree work in Bromsgrove
Bromsgrove is a market town with green belt on every side and the Lickey Hills just to the north, so plenty of gardens here are big, old and full of mature oaks, beeches and conifers. Typical jobs are crown reductions on trees that have outgrown suburban plots, felling trees close to extensions and driveways, and reducing overgrown leylandii between neighbours. Bromsgrove District Council handles Tree Preservation Orders. The firms below work in B60 and B61.
- Larger plots on the edges of town often have trees that pre-date the houses, and some of these are protected. Check before felling.
- Lickey Hills Country Park is run by Birmingham City Council's rangers. Report problem trees on its boundary to them, not to a private firm.
- High hedges that block light can be raised with the council under the high hedges rules if talking to your neighbour fails.
Protected trees in Bromsgrove
Tree Preservation Orders and conservation-area notices in Bromsgrove are handled by Bromsgrove District Council. Check before any felling or major pruning. A good tree surgeon will check for you, but the legal responsibility sits with the owner. Trees beside public roads are the responsibility of Worcestershire County Council as highway authority. Our guide to TPOs and conservation areas explains how applications work.

Which tree surgeons in Bromsgrove offer 24/7 emergency callouts?
CJ Tree Surgeons Ltd, R A Cure Contractors and Reeves Tree Surgeons Ltd advertise 24-hour emergency callouts on their own website. Confirm they can come out when you call. If a tree is on a road or power line, call 999 or 105 first.
Do I need permission to cut down a tree in Bromsgrove?
Usually only if the tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order, stands in a conservation area, or is covered by a planning condition. In Bromsgrove these are handled by Bromsgrove District Council. A TPO tree needs consent, and a conservation area tree needs six weeks' written notice. Nesting birds and bats are also protected by law.
Can I make the council cut my neighbour's leylandii in Bromsgrove?
If a line of two or more evergreen or semi-evergreen trees or shrubs is over 2 metres tall and you've tried to resolve it with your neighbour, you can apply to Bromsgrove District Council under the high hedges rules. There's a fee, and the council can order it reduced but not removed.
How to choose a tree surgeon
- Insurance: ask to see a public liability certificate (the Arboricultural Association recommends at least £5m), and employers' liability, which is a legal requirement if they have staff.
- Qualifications: chainsaw and climbing work should be done by people holding NPTC (City & Guilds) or Lantra certificates. Arboricultural Association Approved Contractor status is a stronger check.
- A written quote: it should say exactly what will be cut, whether the stump is ground out, and whether waste and logs are taken away.
- Standards: ask whether the work will follow BS 3998, the British Standard for tree work.
- Protected trees: a good firm will check for a TPO or conservation area and can make the application. See our TPO guide.
