Tree Surgery Services in Stockton-on-Tees, Teesside & County Durham

Do you have a dangerous or dying tree that needs safe removal? Or perhaps one that simply needs shaping to restore its natural beauty?

Tree Surgery experts in County Durham, Teesside. Green Onion Landscaping offer Tree felling, tree planting, TPO work, crown reduction, crown thinning, crown cleaning and crown raising.

At Green Onion Landscaping, we provide expert tree surgery services, including safe tree felling and precise pruning. Every project is planned carefully and carried out with the skill and experience needed for the job. Because we care about trees and the environment, we handle each one with respect, and recycle or reuse all wood from felled trees so nothing goes to waste.

Tree Pruning in Stockton-on-Tees and Surrounding Areas

We carry out four main types of tree pruning for homes and businesses in Stockton-on-Tees and within a 30-mile radius. Each method serves a specific purpose, helping to improve safety, maintain shape, or support healthy growth.

Crown Reduction and Shaping

We cut back the tree’s crown to reduce its size while keeping its natural shape and appearance. This improves the tree’s proportion and prevents it from becoming overgrown.

Crown Thinning

We selectively remove branches from within the crown without changing the tree’s height or overall outline. As a result, more sunlight can reach the ground, and the tree catches less wind during storms.

Crown Cleaning

We remove dead, diseased, or weak branches to improve the tree’s health and safety. In addition, we take out epicormic shoots, new growth from dormant buds beneath the bark on the trunk, stems, or branches.

Crown Raising

We take off the lower branches to create clearance for pedestrians, vehicles, or buildings. This also improves visibility, for example when clearing trees away from windows, driveways, or road signs.

Tree Planting Across Teesside and the North East

Tree planting is possible at different times of the year, depending on the type of tree. You can plant pot-grown trees at any time, but bare root and root ball trees establish best when planted in autumn or winter.

We plant trees in Stockton-on-Tees, Middlesbrough, Darlington, Hartlepool, Durham, and throughout Teesside and the North East. In addition, we can combine tree planting with our soft landscaping services to create a complete, attractive garden design.

Our qualified team works safely and efficiently, taking care to leave your property clean and tidy. We also remove and dispose of any green waste responsibly, so you can enjoy your new trees without any mess left behind.

TPO Replacement Planting (Chargeable Service)

As a **chargeable service**, we also manage replacement planting for trees that have been removed under Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs). We liaise directly with the local council to ensure replacement trees meet their specific standards, such as matching approved species, size, and planting specifications. In line with Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council policy, which often requires a one-for-one replacement when a protected tree is removed. We will also handle all necessary paperwork, council applications, and follow-up work along side you. That way, the new tree complies fully with council requirements and supports the local canopy for years to come.
