If a tree is overhanging your roofline, blocking light or shedding deadwood, timely professional work makes all the difference. Our team provides careful pruning, crown reduction, felling and stump removal across CR8. We regularly work near Purley Cross and along routes linking to Purley Way, so we understand the access and traffic considerations. Every job starts with a clear plan for safety, neighbours and clean-up.
Purley’s leafy setting at the foot of the North Downs means mature trees are a common feature, especially around Purley Oaks and Sanderstead. We’re used to working in gardens of large detached houses, 1930s properties and period homes where boundaries, sheds and conservatories need extra protection. Whether you’re managing a single specimen tree or a line of boundary planting, we tailor the cut to the species and the space available. The aim is always a balanced canopy and a garden that feels brighter and safer.
We carry out a site survey, explain the recommended works, and provide a written quote with options where appropriate. On the day, we use controlled rigging and careful sectioning to protect lawns, patios and fencing, then remove all arisings unless you’d like logs left behind. You’ll get straightforward advice on aftercare and future maintenance intervals. Local homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, reliable scheduling and a consistent standard from first visit to final sweep-up.

Our approach keeps disruption low while maintaining a high safety standard.

Most jobs in Purley fall within a typical cost of £300–£1,500 per tree, depending on size, height, access and the type of work required.

Tree surgery commonly takes 1–2 days, but the exact duration depends on the tree’s size, the scope (crown reduction vs full felling), and access for equipment and waste removal. A straightforward prune may be completed in a few hours, while a large dismantle near buildings can take a full day or more. Weather, nesting season considerations and parking/loading constraints can also affect timings.
Many routine works are permitted, but some trees are protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or sit within a conservation area in the London Borough of Croydon. If protection applies, you may need consent before pruning, felling or major reductions. We’ll help you check the status and advise on the right application route where needed. Emergency work for immediate safety risks can be handled appropriately, with records kept.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship where applicable, covering the standard of the completed work such as correct cuts, agreed reductions and safe, tidy completion. Natural factors like extreme weather, future disease, or changes in ground conditions can’t be guaranteed, but we’ll always advise on risk reduction and aftercare. If anything related to our workmanship needs attention, we’ll return to inspect and put it right.
Options include crown reduction to manage height and spread, selective tree pruning for light and clearance, full tree felling where necessary, and stump removal by grinding. Many homeowners also combine boundary hedge trimming to tidy sightlines and improve privacy. We can leave logs for firewood, remove all arisings, or chip material for mulch where suitable. We’ll recommend the best approach based on species, garden use and long-term maintenance.
