Clapham’s mix of Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments often means tight side access, shared boundaries and mature trees close to buildings. In SW4 and SW11 we regularly work on rear gardens, communal courtyards and front plots where parking and access need planning. We’re used to protecting paving, lawns and planting beds while lifting arisings out through narrow passages. For blocks near Clapham Junction station, we can coordinate timings to reduce noise and access issues.
We start with a site visit to confirm tree condition, targets and the safest method, then provide a clear written quote. Work is carried out with risk assessments, proper rigging where required, and thorough clean-up as standard. You’ll get practical advice on aftercare, replanting and ongoing pruning cycles. Homeowners choose us because we turn up when we say, keep sites tidy, and communicate throughout.

Costs vary with height, access, proximity to buildings and whether waste removal is included. As a guide in Clapham, small pruning jobs often start around £180–£350, while crown reductions commonly fall between £450–£900. Straightforward tree felling can be £600–£1,500+, and stump grinding is typically £120–£350 depending on diameter and depth. Emergency call-outs may add a premium for out-of-hours response.
Many pruning and hedge work visits in Clapham are completed in half a day, while a larger crown reduction or sectional dismantle usually takes a full day. Stump removal by grinding is often 30–90 minutes once access is set up. Timescales depend on tree size, rigging needs, shared access through side passages, and whether timber is being logged or fully removed. We’ll confirm a realistic duration after the site survey.
Often you can prune or remove trees on private land without formal permission, but there are key exceptions in the London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth. Trees may be protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sit within a Conservation Area, which can require consent or notice before work starts. We check the relevant council records, advise on what’s allowed, and can support the application process where needed.
