From overgrown garden trees to storm-damaged limbs, we provide careful tree removal across SW19 with minimal disruption. Our team regularly works near Wandle Park and along the River Wandle, where access and ground conditions can change quickly. Whether you need full tree felling or controlled sectional dismantling over sheds, fences or parking bays, we plan each lift and cut properly. Waste is removed and the site is left ready for replanting or landscaping.
Colliers Wood has a mix of Victorian terraces with narrow side access, 1930s semis with longer rear gardens, and modern apartments where communal areas need extra care. That variety affects how we bring equipment in, where we can lower sections, and how we protect paving and lawns. If you’re in South Wimbledon, Tooting or Mitcham, we’ll tailor the method to your property layout and neighbours. We’re based just 10 minutes away, so surveys and follow-up visits are easy to arrange.
We start with a site assessment, identify hazards, then choose the safest approach: straight felling where space allows, or sectional dismantling with rigging for tighter gardens. Stump grinding and full stump removal are available to prevent regrowth and make room for new planting or patios. You’ll get clear communication, tidy workmanship, and reliable waste removal as standard. Homeowners choose our tree removal contractors Colliers Wood area service because we’re punctual, careful, and fully prepared for emergency and insurance work.
Gardens around Colliers Wood often have restricted access, shared drives and limited parking, so we plan kit choice and loading points in advance. Near the River Wandle, ground can be softer after rain, so we use ground protection and careful machine positioning. We also factor in school-run traffic and retail congestion around the Tandem Centre when scheduling. As tree removal contractors in London Borough of Merton, we work in a way that respects neighbours, boundaries and local expectations.




Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary by height, trunk diameter, access, and whether you need sectional dismantling over structures. As a guide, small tree removal may start around £250–£450, medium trees often fall in the £500–£1,200 range, and large or complex dismantles can be £1,200–£3,000+. Stump grinding is commonly £120–£350 depending on size and depth. Waste removal and parking constraints can affect the total.
Many small trees can be removed in 2–4 hours, while medium removals typically take half a day. Large trees or jobs requiring sectional dismantling and rigging often take a full day, occasionally longer if access is tight or there are multiple stems. Stump grinding usually adds 30–90 minutes per stump. Timescales depend on proximity to buildings, the amount of waste, and whether emergency making-safe work is required first.
Often, you won’t need planning permission for routine garden tree work, but there are important exceptions. Some trees are protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or sit within conservation areas, which can require consent before felling or major pruning. We’ll ask a few questions, check the relevant constraints where needed, and advise on the next steps. If permission is required, we can support with details and documentation for the application.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship where applicable, giving you peace of mind that the job has been completed properly. For stump grinding and stump removal, the warranty covers issues arising from our installation-standard work, such as incomplete grinding to the agreed depth or poor reinstatement where specified. Natural factors like new seedling growth from nearby trees or future landscaping changes aren’t covered, but we’ll always explain what to expect.
You can choose stump grinding (most popular) to below ground level for turfing, beds or paving, or full stump removal where you need a clear excavation for foundations or new walls. We can also carry out site clearance and leave arisings as mulch if you’d like. If you’re replanting, we’ll suggest suitable species for garden size and light levels. We’ll help you balance privacy, maintenance and root behaviour for the space.
