From routine pruning to complex tree felling, we provide professional arboriculture across SW9. Homeowners near Stockwell tube station and Stockwell Park rely on us for careful, controlled work that protects gardens, fences and neighbouring properties. We also tackle hedge work, stump removal and tree planting to keep outdoor spaces looking sharp year-round. If a tree becomes dangerous after high winds, our emergency call-out service helps you act fast.
Stockwell’s mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and post-war estates often means tight side access, shared boundaries and mature trees close to buildings. We’re used to working around conservatories, rear extensions and small courtyards, common between Oval, Brixton and Clapham. Whether you need a light crown reduction to improve daylight or a full removal due to decline, we tailor the method to your property and the tree’s condition. Our team brings the right kit for confined sites without compromising safety.
We start with a site visit to assess tree health, risks and the best approach, then provide a written quote with clear scope. Work is carried out by trained, fully insured arborists with safe rigging, tidy chipping and responsible waste removal. If you need formal documentation, we can produce tree reports to support property sales, neighbour discussions or insurance queries. Local homeowners choose us for punctual arrivals, clean handovers and straightforward communication.
As tree contractors in London Borough of Lambeth, we plan around resident parking controls, narrow streets and restricted rear access. Many Stockwell gardens have compact footprints and boundary planting, so we use low-impact techniques to protect paving and lawns. We also consider local council requirements, including TPOs and conservation constraints where applicable, before any felling or heavy pruning. This local know-how keeps projects smooth and compliant.

Costs vary by tree size, access and complexity. As a guide in the Stockwell area, small pruning jobs often start around £150–£350, while crown reductions commonly range £350–£850.

Many jobs in SW9 are completed within half a day to a full day, such as pruning, hedge reductions or single-stump grinding. Larger crown reductions or sectional dismantles can take 1–2 days, especially with limited access or multiple stems. Timescales depend on tree size, proximity to buildings, waste volumes, and whether we need to lower sections by rope. We’ll confirm an expected duration after the site survey.
Most routine tree maintenance doesn’t require planning permission, but certain trees are protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or are within a conservation area. In those cases, you may need consent or to give the council notice before felling or significant pruning. We check protection status, advise on the correct route, and can help with the paperwork. If approval is needed, we’ll schedule work around the decision timeframe.
Yes. We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on agreed aspects of the work, such as the standard of pruning cuts, site reinstatement and completion to the specified scope. Because trees are living organisms, warranties don’t cover future issues caused by storms, disease, pests or changes in ground conditions. If anything doesn’t match the agreed specification, we’ll return promptly to put it right.
We offer crown reduction, crown lifting, thinning, formative pruning for young trees, and careful deadwood removal. For planting, we can supply and install suitable species for small Stockwell gardens, including ornamental trees, multi-stems and pleached options for screening. Stump removal can be finished with topsoil and seed, or left ready for paving. We’ll recommend choices based on light levels, space, soil conditions and maintenance preferences.
