Tree Surgeon Birmingham
Who we are
Birmingham Is Our Home Patch, and It Shows
AWD Forestry & Tree Surgery Ltd is based in Marston Green, on the eastern edge of Birmingham, which means when you call us you are not getting a national franchise working out of a call centre, you are getting a local, family-run team that can often be with you the same week, and in an emergency the same day.
We have climbed, pruned and felled trees in just about every corner of the city: tight Victorian terraces in Moseley where every branch has to be lowered on ropes, sprawling gardens in Sutton Coldfield with 200-year-old oaks, and commercial sites along the A38 where traffic management matters as much as chainsaw work. Whatever your street looks like, we have almost certainly worked on one like it.

Local knowledge
Tree Surgery Across Every Birmingham Postcode
From Sutton Coldfield to Kings Heath
We cover the whole of Birmingham. Erdington, Castle Bromwich and Sutton Coldfield in the north; Harborne, Edgbaston and Quinton in the west; Moseley, Kings Heath and Northfield in the south; and our own back yard around Marston Green, Sheldon and Yardley in the east. Being based beside Birmingham Airport means the M6, M42 and A45 put the whole city within easy reach.
TPOs and Conservation Areas in Birmingham
Birmingham City Council protects thousands of trees with Tree Preservation Orders, and areas like Moseley, Edgbaston and Bournville sit within conservation areas where even routine pruning needs six weeks’ written notice. We check protection status before we quote and handle the council application for you, it is part of the service, not an extra.
The Trees We Work On Most in Birmingham
The city’s Victorian parks and avenues left Birmingham with a huge stock of mature limes, planes and horse chestnuts, while post-war suburbs are full of fast-growing sycamores and leylandii that have outgrown their gardens. We are also seeing ash dieback right across the city, if you have an ash looking thin in the crown, it is worth getting it assessed sooner rather than later.

Why Choose Us
The Local Team Birmingham Recommends
Reputation matters more in your home city than anywhere else. A huge share of our Birmingham work comes from recommendations, neighbours who watched us take down a difficult tree over a glass conservatory, or landlords who needed a dangerous limb dealt with the same day. We turn up when we say we will, we protect your lawns and borders, and we leave your garden cleaner than we found it.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you get to my property in Birmingham?
We are based in Marston Green, so most Birmingham postcodes are within 30 minutes of us. Routine work is usually booked within one to two weeks, and genuine emergencies, storm-damaged or dangerous trees, are typically attended the same day.
Do I need permission from Birmingham City Council to prune or fell my tree?
Only if the tree is protected. Birmingham City Council maintains Tree Preservation Orders across the city, and conservation areas such as Moseley, Edgbaston and Bournville require six weeks' notice for any tree work. We check for you before quoting and submit the application on your behalf where one is needed.
How much does tree surgery cost in Birmingham?
It depends on the size and condition of the tree and how easy it is to access. As a guide, small tree work starts from a few hundred pounds, while large or technical dismantles cost more. Every Birmingham quote is free, written and fixed, no surprises on the day.
Can you work on trees in small Birmingham gardens with no rear access?
Yes, a large part of our city work is in terraced streets where everything has to come out through the house or over it. We dismantle trees in sections, lower branches on ropes, and protect floors and fences throughout.
Do you remove all the waste after the job?
Always. Branches are chipped on site, logs are removed (or left cut for firewood if you would like them), and we sweep up before we leave. You can also request the woodchip for your borders at no charge.
