Quick answer
What does a tree surgeon do, and do you need permission to fell a tree?
A tree surgeon fells, prunes and dismantles trees, grinds stumps and manages hedges, typically £300–£1,500. Permission is the first question, not the last: a tree with a Tree Preservation Order needs council consent, and any tree in a conservation area needs six weeks’ written notice. Felling without either is a criminal offence carrying an unlimited fine.

Tree surgeon vs landscaper vs handyman
| Job | Tree surgeon | Landscaper | Handyman |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fell or dismantle a mature tree | ✅ Required | ❌ Not equipped | ❌ No |
| Crown reduction or thinning | ✅ Recommended | ⚠️ Small only | ❌ No |
| Stump grinding | ✅ Recommended | ⚠️ Sometimes | ❌ No |
| Annual hedge trimming | ✅ Yes | ✅ Recommended | ⚠️ Low hedges |
| Work on a TPO or protected tree | ✅ Required | ❌ No | ❌ No |
Ask for the certificate numbers and the public liability limit before any climbing or felling work. Tree work carries the highest injury and third-party damage risk of any garden trade, and an uninsured contractor dropping a limb through a roof becomes your problem.

Tree Surgeon terms explained — Mansfield glossary
- Tree Preservation Order(TPO)
- A council order making it an offence to cut down, top, lop or uproot a protected tree without written consent. TPOs are searchable through the local authority, and they run with the land — inheriting the tree means inheriting the order.
- Conservation Area Notice(Section 211)
- The six weeks’ written notice required before working on any tree above a modest size in a conservation area, even without a TPO. The council may respond by serving a TPO, so the notice period is real rather than a formality.
- BS 3998
- The British Standard for tree work, which sets out acceptable pruning practice. It is why a competent arborist will refuse to "top" a mature tree — the practice is outside the standard and leaves weak regrowth on a decaying stub.
- Nesting Bird Season(Nesting season)
- Under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 it is an offence to damage or destroy an active nest. Broadly March to August, which constrains hedge and tree work and is a legal duty on you as well as the contractor.
