What is Woodland Management?

About 80% of UK lumber is imported, and as a consequence there’s a push toward managing neglected woodlands often in private ownership. The idea is to activate management programs on them, mitigate against the increasing carbon footprint associated with importing wood, and to use UK wood instead, stimulating the domestic market.

Sustainable woodland management is a crucial part of land management, ensuring a balance between conservation, biodiversity, and recreational access. While it may seem counterproductive removing trees from established woodland, doing so can actually help the land to thrive, and this is the goal of our woodland management services.

The management of established areas of trees normally in close confinement within urban environments. The temptation is often to leave urban woodlands to overgrow but this leads to an unusable and problematic woodland.

Regular work to encourage a natural and sustainable woodland ecosystem involves techniques such as the selective thinning and felling of trees to allow more light to penetrate through the high canopy to encourage more woodland flora. Once thinned out, bulbs, small shrubs and grass can grow with minimal restrictions

Occasionally, due to an ever greater demand on the housing stock and an increasing need for cemeteries, we may need to fell sections of woodland. In such cases, we liaise very closely with the local authority, environmentalists and developers, conducting extensive assessments to ensure there is a minimum of disturbance to the local wildlife and the remaining tree stock.
Yes. As well as woodland areas in London boroughs, there are also wooded areas on private estates in need of management.
There is no fixed price for this service: the cost depends on the size of the area requiring management, the complexity of the job, and various other factors. Our no-obligation quote service includes a detailed breakdown of costs so that you can assess and compare before committing.

Testimonials

Trees UK reduced the crown of our oak tree. They did a great job. Its a beautiful tree with a TPO so I wanted it done properly. These guys really know what they are doing. Plus they cleared everything up nicely at the end and our neighbours were very pleased too. Without doubt we would use them again.
Ben StaggJune 2020
TreesUK gave me a competitive quote to remove a large fire-damaged leylandii from my garden. The office and on-site staff are extremely friendly, helpful and professional. On-site, the team were efficient and very careful around our property: they took a lot of care to tidy up well and leave no impact despite moving a lot of very messy burnt wood.
Matthew SmithJune 2020
We used TreesUK to carry out work on 4 trees in our garden. They were excellent. Came to do the quote when they said they would. Good communication. Did the application to Bromley Council (not easy during lockdown). Then came on the day agreed to do the work. Nice team, very good at explaining what they were doing. Cleared the site at the end of the work. Maintained appropriate social distancing at all times (they politely declined a cup of tea). Will happily recommend them and will use them again.

Wow... What can I say... Fantastic. Angelo came to chat with me on what I wanted and advised me on the best solution The ladies in their office a joy to talk with, and the three-man team that came to carry out the work: how nice were they! The best. Parked so neighbours were happy; polite, courteous, no slacking. Completed all that was asked of them, left my garden tidier than it was when they started, and no trace of them on the road outside either. Happy happy happy! Top marks all round, thank you.

Penny IrelandSpring 2016
I was very impressed by the quality of work and the team who were extremely professional and friendly. They arrived on time, worked through the day and cleared up. I would highly recommend Angelo and his team to anyone looking for expert help from a tree surgeon.

Excellent service, can't fault them. Top marks.
James St John
Three trees beautifully trimmed. This included a mature 70ft horse chestnut where they kept its full shape and just removed the cluttering branches within the crown.
