From overgrown crowns to storm-damaged limbs, we provide professional arboricultural services across Croydon. We’re regularly working near East Croydon station and around Addiscombe, keeping gardens safe, bright and manageable. Whether you need tree felling, pruning or hedge work, we plan each job to protect fences, lawns and neighbouring properties. Waste is removed promptly, leaving your outdoor space neat and usable.
Croydon’s mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and modern developments often means tight side access, shared boundaries and mature trees close to buildings. In South Croydon, Shirley and Sanderstead, we commonly deal with tall conifers, established fruit trees and broadleaf specimens that need sensitive crown reduction. Our team understands how different property layouts affect rigging, lowering zones and chipper positioning. That local experience helps us deliver safer outcomes with minimal disruption.
We start with an on-site assessment, explain the options, then provide a written quote with clear scope. Our approach prioritises safety, tidy working and responsible disposal, with emergency call-out available when trees fail unexpectedly. If needed, we can produce tree reports to support insurance, sales or neighbour discussions. Homeowners choose us because we’re reliable, well-equipped and we leave gardens looking better than we found them.
Working across the London Borough of Croydon, we’re used to narrow drives, parking limits and busy roads near the Whitgift Centre. We plan access, equipment placement and traffic-safe loading to keep disruption down. Soil and exposure vary from sheltered terraces to windier, open plots around Selsdon and Addington, so we tailor staking, pruning intensity and aftercare. We also check constraints such as TPOs and conservation areas before cutting begins.

Costs vary by tree size, access and whether waste removal is included. As a guide, small pruning jobs often start around £180–£350, while crown reduction on a medium tree is commonly £350–£750. Tree felling can range from £450–£1,500+ depending on dismantling needs. Stump removal is usually £120–£350 per stump. We’ll survey in person and provide a clear written quote.
Many pruning and hedge-work visits are completed in 2–4 hours, while a typical crown reduction or small tree removal often takes half a day. Larger dismantles, multiple trees, or difficult access can require a full day or more. Timescales depend on tree height, proximity to buildings, lowering/rigging requirements, and whether stump grinding is included. We’ll confirm the expected duration when we assess the site.
Most routine work is permitted, but some trees are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sit within a conservation area, where consent or notification may be required. If a tree is dead or dangerous, there are exemptions, but evidence is still advisable. We check the relevant constraints, guide you through the council process where needed, and ensure works are carried out in line with the approved specification.
Yes. We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on agreed elements of the job, such as correct completion of specified pruning, safe felling methods and proper stump removal to the stated depth. The warranty doesn’t cover future storm damage, disease progression, or issues caused by third-party alterations to the tree or site conditions. You’ll receive a clear scope of works so expectations are set upfront.
We can advise on tree planting choices suited to Croydon gardens, including smaller ornamental trees, fruit trees, and screening species. For pruning, we’ll recommend crown thinning, crown reduction or formative pruning depending on light, clearance and long-term structure. Aftercare options include staking, mulching, watering guidance and replacement planting where removals are needed. We help you balance aesthetics, neighbour considerations and ongoing maintenance needs.
