From mature garden trees near Lloyd Park to boundary hedges around Sanderstead, we help homeowners keep trees healthy and manageable. Our team covers all aspects of tree care, including crown reduction, pruning, tree felling and stump removal. If a storm leaves a limb hanging or a tree becomes unsafe, we offer rapid emergency call-outs. We also provide clear tree reports when you need formal guidance.
South Croydon’s leafy streets include large detached houses, 1930s semis and Victorian villas, often with long rear gardens and established planting. That means big canopies, shared boundaries and occasional access challenges through side passages. We regularly work for clients in CR2 and nearby Purley and Selsdon, tailoring methods to protect lawns, patios and neighbouring fences. Whether it’s shaping a specimen tree or planting a new one, we plan the job around your property and your neighbours.
We start with a site visit to assess condition, targets and access, then recommend the safest approach and the right specification. All work is carried out by trained, insured professionals using modern climbing and rigging techniques where needed. We protect surrounding beds and hardscapes, remove arisings, and leave your garden clean and usable. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, dependable scheduling and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
In the tree-lined roads of the London Borough of Croydon, access can be tight and parking controlled, so we plan loading, chipper placement and traffic safety in advance. South Croydon gardens often sit on mixed clay soils, which can affect stability and replanting choices. We adapt our kit for narrow side returns and protect driveways and paving during removals. If council constraints apply, we help you navigate them before work begins.

Costs vary with tree size, access and whether lifting/rigging is required. As a guide, small pruning jobs are often £150–£350, while crown reductions commonly fall around £350–£900. Tree felling can range from £400–£1,800+ depending on complexity and targets. Stump grinding is typically £120–£450. Emergency call-outs may add a premium, especially out of hours.
Many pruning or hedge jobs take half a day, while a straightforward small tree removal may be completed in a day. Larger dismantles near buildings can take 1–3 days, particularly if timber needs to be lowered in sections. Stump grinding is often 30–90 minutes per stump. Timescales depend on access, waste removal, nesting checks, and whether we need to coordinate with neighbours.
Most routine pruning and garden maintenance is permitted, but some trees are protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or sit within a conservation area, which can require formal consent. Rules can also affect the extent of pruning and the timing of works. We can help you identify whether restrictions apply and advise on the right application route. If permission is needed, we’ll support you with the details required.
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty, covering the quality of the work we carry out and the standard of installation for related elements such as staking and aftercare guidance for new planting. It doesn’t cover future storm damage, disease progression, or issues caused by third-party interference. We also work to recognised good practice to reduce the risk of regrowth problems after pruning or removals.
We can recommend species and sizes for tree planting, from ornamental multi-stems to screening evergreens, chosen for light levels, soil and garden scale. For shaping, options include crown thinning, crown reduction, formative pruning for young trees, and hedge trimming or renovation. We’ll talk through privacy needs, leaf drop, root considerations and maintenance levels. Where needed, we can also provide a written tree report to support decisions.
