From Wandsworth Common to streets around Wandsworth Town, trees add privacy and character but they also need proper management. We provide professional tree felling, crown reduction, pruning and stump removal across SW18. Whether you’re dealing with overhanging branches, storm damage or a tree that’s outgrown its space, we plan the work to protect your home, garden and nearby properties. Emergency call-outs are available when safety can’t wait.
Wandsworth’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, plus modern riverside apartments, often means tight side access, shared boundaries and carefully planted gardens. In areas such as Southfields and Earlsfield, we frequently work around mature trees close to conservatories, sheds and neighbouring fences. Our team chooses the right methods for confined spaces, including sectional dismantling and low-impact rigging where needed. We also carry out hedge work to keep screening neat without stripping it back too hard.
We start with a site visit to assess tree health, structure and risks, then recommend the safest, most cost-effective option. You’ll receive a clear scope of works, waste removal plan and timescales before we begin, and we leave the area tidy on completion. If required, we can provide tree reports for insurers, buyers or management companies. Based just 20 minutes away, local homeowners trust us for reliable scheduling, careful workmanship and straightforward communication.
Working in the London Borough of Wandsworth often involves controlled noise hours, considerate waste handling and sensible parking plans for chipper access. Around Southside Shopping Centre and King George's Park, roads can be busy, so we schedule loading and removals to minimise disruption. Many gardens have clay-heavy soils and established planting, so we protect lawns and borders with ground sheets and careful tracking. We also adapt pruning and hedge work to maintain privacy on closely spaced boundaries.

Costs vary with tree size, access and whether waste is removed. As a guide, small pruning jobs often start around £150–£350, while crown reduction for a medium tree is commonly £400–£900. Tree felling with sectional dismantling can range from £600–£1,800+. Stump removal is typically £120–£450 depending on diameter and depth. We’ll confirm a tailored price after a site visit in SW18.
Most straightforward pruning or hedge work can be completed in half a day to a day. A crown reduction on a medium tree often takes 3–6 hours, while felling and dismantling may take a full day or more if access is restricted. Stump grinding is usually 30–90 minutes per stump. Timescales depend on tree height, proximity to buildings, waste volume, and whether traffic or parking constraints affect equipment setup.
Many routine works are allowed, but some trees are protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or sit within a conservation area, which can require written consent before pruning or felling. If you’re unsure, we’ll check the relevant constraints and advise on the correct application route. For emergency safety work, rules can differ, but evidence and proper reporting may still be needed. We help you stay compliant from the outset.
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty on agreed elements of the work, giving you confidence that the job has been carried out properly. This covers issues arising from our workmanship, such as incorrect pruning cuts or incomplete specified works, subject to reasonable aftercare and normal tree growth. It doesn’t cover future storm damage, disease progression, or changes caused by third parties. We’ll explain what’s included in writing.
We tailor the approach to your garden and goals. For pruning, options include crown reduction, crown thinning, deadwood removal and formative pruning for younger trees. For planting, we can source suitable species for SW18 gardens, from compact ornamental trees to screening varieties, and advise on spacing and root behaviour near paving and drains. Stump removal can be finished with topsoil, re-turfing or left ready for replanting. We’ll recommend what suits your property and light levels.
