Frequently Asked Questions
How much does tree removal cost in Ireland?
Tree removal costs depend on the size and location of the tree, access to the site, and whether stump grinding is included. Small trees may cost from around EUR 150, while larger or more difficult removals can cost more. We provide free, no-obligation quotes for all tree work — just give us a call on 085 168 5170.
Do I need permission to remove a tree in Ireland?
In most cases, you can remove trees on your own property without planning permission. However, trees covered by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or trees in certain protected areas may require council approval. If you’re unsure, we can advise you on the best course of action for your specific situation.
What is tree crown reduction?
Crown reduction involves carefully cutting back the branches of a tree to reduce its overall height and spread. This is a common solution when a tree has outgrown its space, is blocking light, or is too close to a building. We reduce the crown while maintaining the natural shape of the tree.
When is the best time to remove or prune trees?
Most tree work can be carried out year-round, though late autumn and winter are often ideal as trees are dormant and there’s less disturbance to wildlife. Emergency work for dangerous or storm-damaged trees is carried out immediately regardless of season.
Do you remove the stump as well?
Yes. We offer stump grinding as part of our tree removal service or as a standalone job. The stump is ground below ground level, and the area is left clean and ready for replanting, turfing, or paving.
What areas do you cover for tree services?
We cover Dundalk and all of County Louth including Ardee, Blackrock, Carlingford, Castlebellingham, Greenore, Louth Village, Omeath, and all surrounding areas. Call us on 085 168 5170 for a free quote.
