If a tree is blocking light, overhanging the roof, or shedding deadwood, timely tree surgery keeps your garden safe and usable. We work across SM4, including Morden Park and Morden South, with a practical approach that suits family gardens. Whether you’re near Morden station or walking distance from Morden Hall Park, we can assess risk, tidy canopies and leave everything neat. Our team handles everything from careful pruning to full removals when required.
Morden’s mix of 1930s semis, post-war estates and modern developments often means compact rear gardens, shared boundaries and close neighbours. That’s why we plan cuts precisely and manage drop zones to protect sheds, fences and patios. In streets with narrower access, we bring the right kit for controlled dismantling and efficient waste removal. Homeowners in Lower Morden and St Helier also ask us to balance privacy with light, especially where mature trees have grown beyond their original footprint.
We start with a site visit to confirm the safest method, access points and any hazards such as overhead lines. You’ll receive clear recommendations, options (reduce, prune, fell, or remove stump) and a tidy-up plan before we begin. Work is carried out by trained professionals using safe rigging and cutting techniques, with debris removed or chipped as agreed. Local homeowners trust us for straightforward advice, punctual arrivals and a finish that looks intentional, not hacked back.
We’re familiar with the London Borough of Merton’s property layouts and the practicalities of working around driveways, side passages and on-street parking. In parts of SM4, access can be restricted, so we plan equipment and waste removal to avoid blocking neighbours. We also factor in ground conditions in park-adjacent areas where roots can be widespread and lawns softer after rain. This local approach keeps tree surgery morden area jobs efficient and considerate.

Larger removals, complex dismantles over buildings, or multiple-stem trees can reach £2,500 per tree.

Most tree surgery jobs take 1–2 days, with straightforward pruning or hedge trimming often completed in a few hours. Larger fells, careful sectional dismantling, or multiple trees can extend the schedule, especially where access is tight or there are obstacles like conservatories and overhead cables. Weather can also affect safe climbing and rigging. We’ll confirm timings after a site visit and keep disruption to a minimum.
Many garden tree works are permitted, but some trees are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sit within a conservation area, which can require council consent before pruning or felling. Rules can also apply even if the tree is on private land. For tree surgery in London Borough of Merton, we can help identify protections and advise on the right next step. If permission is needed, we’ll guide you through it before work starts.
Yes. We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on agreed aspects of the completed work, such as the quality of cuts, site reinstatement where specified, and the standard of stump removal/ground preparation when included. Natural factors outside our control—like extreme weather, future growth patterns, or pre-existing disease—aren’t covered. We’ll explain exactly what’s included in writing so you know where you stand.
Popular options include crown reduction to lower height and spread, crown thinning for more light, formative pruning for younger trees, and deadwood removal for safety. For boundaries, we offer hedge trimming to maintain privacy without making gardens feel shaded. If a tree is unsuitable, we can fell and grind the stump so you can replant, turf, or extend a patio. We’ll recommend the best approach based on species, growth habit and your garden goals.
