From overgrown garden trees to storm-damaged limbs, we deliver safe tree removal across CR2 with minimal disruption. Our team regularly works near Sanderstead Recreation Ground and around Sanderstead Plantation, where mature trees and tight boundaries are common. We carry out tree felling, sectional dismantling and emergency call-outs when a tree becomes hazardous. All arisings are removed, leaving your garden ready to use again.
Sanderstead’s affluent residential streets include large detached houses, executive homes and characterful period properties with established planting. That often means trees close to conservatories, garages and neighbouring fences, where precision matters. We’re experienced in crane-free dismantling, rigging and controlled lowering to protect patios, lawns and driveways. If you’re in Purley, Selsdon or Hamsey Green, we can usually reach you in around 20 minutes from our base.
We start with a site visit to assess tree condition, access, parking and any risks to buildings or utilities. You’ll receive a clear written quote covering the agreed method, waste removal and optional stump grinding or full stump removal. Our crews work to strict safety standards, are fully insured, and keep noise and mess under control. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, on-time arrivals and a thorough final clearance.
As tree removal contractors in London Borough of Croydon, we’re used to Sanderstead’s mature gardens, sloping plots and protected boundaries. Parking and access can be restricted on residential roads, so we plan chipper placement, loading and safe pedestrian routes. Ground conditions vary from soft lawns to paved terraces, so we use boards and careful lowering to prevent damage. We also factor in neighbour proximity and school-run traffic when scheduling.

Costs depend on height, spread, access, and whether sectional dismantling is needed. In Sanderstead, small tree removals often start around £250–£600. Medium trees are commonly £700–£1,500, while large or complex dismantles near buildings can be £1,800–£3,500+. Stump grinding is typically £120–£350 per stump. Emergency work and crane requirements can increase the price.
Many small removals can be completed in 2–4 hours, including tidy-up and waste removal. A medium tree with sectional dismantling usually takes half a day to a full day. Large trees, difficult access, or multiple stems may take 1–2 days, especially if stump grinding and full site clearance are included. Timescales are affected by proximity to structures, weather, and whether timber needs to be removed in smaller sections.
Often you won’t need permission, but some trees are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sit within a conservation area, where notice or consent is required. In Croydon, rules can apply even for work in private gardens. We’ll help you identify whether protections apply and can support with the correct application or notification. If a tree is dangerous, emergency works may be permitted with evidence.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for associated ground reinstatement and hard/soft landscaping we carry out as part of the job (for example, making good surfaces after stump removal). For stump grinding, we grind to the agreed depth and remove grindings where specified. Tree removal itself is completed to the agreed specification with full waste removal. Any issues linked to our workmanship are rectified promptly.
After removal, popular options include stump grinding and re-turfing, planting a smaller replacement tree, creating a new bed, or extending a patio or driveway area. Some homeowners choose a privacy screen with evergreen planting, or a low-maintenance shrub scheme suited to the garden’s light levels. We’ll advise on species choice, root space, and long-term maintenance, and can clear the site ready for your next project.
