From tall garden conifers near Tolworth Tower to boundary hedges along Tolworth Broadway, trees in Tolworth need skilled, controlled work. Fine Landscaping provides tree felling, crown reduction, pruning, tree planting, stump removal and hedge work with safety at the forefront. We also offer emergency call-outs after storms or sudden limb failure. If you need formal documentation, we can prepare clear tree reports for homeowners and buyers.
Tolworth’s mix of 1930s semis, post-war houses and modern developments often means tight side access, shared driveways and mature trees close to buildings. We’re used to working around garages, conservatories and overhead lines, especially across KT5 and KT6. Whether you’re in Surbiton, Chessington or nearby New Malden, we tailor the method to your garden layout and the species involved. The result is healthier trees and fewer future problems with light, clearance and safety.
We start with a site visit to assess condition, targets and access, then recommend the most appropriate option—pruning, reduction or removal. Our team works with the right rigging and cutting techniques to protect lawns, patios and neighbouring fences, and we remove arisings as standard. You’ll get straightforward communication, transparent scope and a tidy finish. Local homeowners choose us because we’re reliable, fully insured and consistent about safety and clean-up.
As tree contractors Tolworth area homeowners rely on, we plan for suburban access constraints and considerate neighbour relations. Many streets around King George's Field have limited parking and narrow driveways, so we schedule vehicles and chipper placement to keep disruption low. We also factor in soil conditions and drainage common to established gardens, choosing planting stock and aftercare accordingly. For works that may involve restrictions, we help you navigate local requirements in the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.

Costs vary with height, species, access, waste removal and whether rigging is needed. As a guide, small pruning jobs often start around £150–£350, while crown reductions commonly fall in the £350–£900 range. Full removals can be £600–£2,000+ depending on complexity and proximity to buildings. Stump grinding is usually £120–£450. We’ll provide a written quote after a site visit in KT5/KT6.
Most straightforward pruning or hedge work can be completed in half a day, while larger crown reductions or dismantles typically take a full day. Complex removals near structures, with restricted access or heavy rigging, may run to 1–2 days. Stump grinding is often 30–90 minutes per stump. Timescales depend on tree size, waste volume, parking/access for machinery, and whether multiple trees are being handled.
Many routine 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. If you’re unsure, we’ll help check constraints and advise what’s allowed before any cutting starts. For emergency works to make a tree safe, rules can differ, and good records matter. Our tree reports can support applications and explain the proposed scope.
Yes. We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty where applicable, covering issues arising from poor workmanship on the agreed scope (for example, incorrect pruning cuts or incomplete stump removal to the specified depth). It doesn’t cover future storm damage, disease progression, or problems caused by third-party interference. We’ll confirm what’s covered in writing before starting. You’ll also have aftercare guidance to help trees recover well.
For planting, popular choices include pleached trees for screening, multi-stem specimens for softer structure, and native varieties for wildlife. Pruning options range from light formative pruning to crown lifting, crown reduction and selective thinning, depending on the tree’s health and your goals. For hedges, we can shape formal lines or maintain a natural, thicker screen. We’ll recommend options based on light levels, soil, space, and long-term maintenance in your Tolworth garden.
