Phone Mast Removals
Removals
Do you need to recover vacant possession?
Telecoms operators can benefit from strong legal protections under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 and the Telecommunications Code, making site removal a complex and multi-layered process. Whether you need to redevelop, repurpose, or regain control of your land, terminating a telecoms agreement requires careful strategy and compliance with strict legal procedures.
​
We assess your options, advise on the feasibility of removal, and work closely with specialist solicitors to ensure the correct notices are served. Our goal is to secure removal as efficiently as possible while meeting your redevelopment or property plans. Where possible, we recover costs from the operator, but if not, we charge an hourly rate.

What You Need To Know
What we can do for you
We begin by reviewing your lease and legal position to determine whether removal is possible and what legal procedures must be followed. If removal is viable, we strategically plan the termination process, ensuring that notices are served correctly and within the required timeframes. Next, we work closely with specialist solicitors to initiate legal proceedings where necessary, ensuring all steps are taken to maximise your chances of securing removal as quickly as possible. Where possible, we negotiate directly with the operator to explore voluntary removal, compensation, or surrender agreements that can expedite the process. Throughout, we work to protect your redevelopment plans and property interests.
How that benefits you
By working with us, you’ll receive expert guidance on whether removal is possible and how best to achieve it. We handle the complex legal process, working with specialist solicitors to ensure the correct notices are served and all legal requirements are met. With our experience, we navigate operator resistance and legal challenges, giving you the best possible chance of securing removal within your desired timeframe. Whether for redevelopment, repurposing, or regaining control of your site, we work to achieve the best outcome for you. From start to finish, we manage the entire process, minimising your stress while keeping you informed and in control.
What it will cost you
We aim to recover our fees from the operator wherever possible. If cost recovery is not an option, we charge an hourly rate, billed monthly. Before proceeding, we provide a clear estimate of expected costs, ensuring full transparency. This ensures you receive expert guidance with no unexpected fees, while maximising your chances of a successful and timely removal.
