Response within 24 hours
From riverside gardens near the River Wandle to busy plots by the Tandem Centre, trees in Colliers Wood need careful, professional management. We handle tree felling, crown reduction, pruning and planting with safety and neighbour considerations front of mind. If you’ve got a storm-damaged limb or an overgrown canopy blocking light, our team responds quickly and works with minimal disruption. We also provide stump removal and hedge work to finish the job properly.
Local gardens across SW19 range from compact Victorian terraces to wider 1930s semis and modern apartments with shared landscaping. That mix affects access, waste removal and how we rig branches down safely over sheds, conservatories and parked cars. We’re used to tight side passages in South Wimbledon and boundary-sensitive work where neighbouring fences and extensions sit close. Our advice is practical: keep trees healthy, improve light, and reduce ongoing maintenance costs.
We start with a site visit, assess tree health and hazards, then agree a clear scope and tidy work plan. All work is carried out by trained, fully insured operatives using proper climbing and lowering techniques where needed. You’ll get straightforward recommendations, careful protection for lawns and paving, and responsible disposal of arisings. Homeowners choose us because we turn up when we say we will and leave the garden looking better than we found it.
As tree contractors in London Borough of Merton, we plan around parking restrictions, narrow drives and shared access routes common in Colliers Wood. Riverside ground near Wandle Park can be softer, so we use ground protection to prevent rutting and lawn damage. We also factor in local noise expectations and neighbour proximity when scheduling reductions and removals. If council constraints apply, we’ll guide you through the checks before any cutting starts.

Costs depend on tree size, access and whether waste removal is included. As a guide, small pruning jobs often start around £150–£350, while crown reductions on medium trees commonly fall between £450–£900. Tree felling and sectional dismantling can range from £650–£2,000+ for larger or awkward trees. Stump grinding is typically £120–£350 per stump. We’ll quote after a site visit.
Most pruning or hedge work is completed in half a day, while a crown reduction on a medium tree is often a full day depending on access and waste volume. Larger dismantles can take 1–2 days, especially near buildings or where rigging is required. Stump grinding usually takes 30–90 minutes per stump. Timescales vary with tree condition, weather, parking/loading distance and whether multiple trees are involved.
Many routine garden tree works are permitted, but some trees are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sit within a conservation area, which can require formal consent or notice. The safest approach is to check before work begins, particularly for felling or heavy reductions. We can help identify likely protections and advise what information the council may need. Emergency work for immediate danger can be handled with proper evidence and reporting.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on workmanship where applicable, covering issues caused by our installation or finishing standards (for example, tree planting, staking and aftercare setup). For pruning and felling, the warranty relates to the quality and safety of the work carried out, not future storm events or changes in tree health beyond our control. We’re fully insured and we always work to recognised arboricultural best practice.
We can recommend trees suited to your space and light levels, from compact ornamental species to screening options for privacy. Popular choices include pleached trees for tight gardens, multi-stems for softer structure, and native varieties to support wildlife. For shaping, we offer formative pruning, crown thinning and crown reduction to improve light and clearance. We’ll help you choose based on soil conditions, maintenance preference and proximity to buildings, drains and boundaries.
