Enfield is home. Twisted Tree Surgery was started here in 2014 and we still do more work in this borough than anywhere else. From Edwardian villas in Bush Hill Park to the big estates around Hadley Wood and Forty Hill, we know the streets, the species, and the council.
What we do in Enfield
- Tree removal — including dead, dangerous and TPO trees with full council applications.
- Crown reduction & thinning — popular on the big oaks and limes around the conservation areas.
- Tree pruning — formative pruning, building clearance, deadwooding.
- Stump grinding — clean below-ground removal, no diesel mess on the lawn.
- Pollarding — for street trees and managed-height plane and lime trees.
- Emergency tree work — usually same week, often same day in Enfield itself.
Enfield conservation areas & TPOs
Big chunks of Enfield are in conservation areas — Bush Hill Park, Forty Hill, Hadley Wood and parts of Winchmore Hill among them — and lots of individual trees have Tree Preservation Orders. The London Borough of Enfield needs notice for any work on a tree in a conservation area, and consent for TPO'd trees. We handle the application for you and only start once we've got the go-ahead.
Common Enfield jobs
The bread-and-butter of work in Enfield: Leyland cypress reductions and removals on overgrown boundary hedges, silver birch crown thinning on the lawn, old apple and pear restoration, and oak and lime reductions in the larger Edwardian gardens. We also get a steady flow of ash dieback removals — please don't leave those.
