Your local tree surgeons

Banstead gardens tend to be long, with big conifers and boundary hedges that have been left to grow. We mostly cut hedges, reduce big trees, fell in sections, grind stumps and come out 24/7 after storms. We cover the village from the High Street and Park Road out to Bolters Lane and Croydon Lane. Michael looks into any preservation order on your tree; the paperwork, if needed, is yours.

What we do

From a single limb to a whole plot cleared, one team and one number. Tap a service for the detail.

Protected trees: Banstead falls under Reigate & Banstead Borough Council, and a good number of the mature avenue and garden trees here are covered by Tree Preservation Orders. Parts of the village sit in conservation areas, where you still need to give notice before working on trees. Michael checks whether your tree has an order or sits in a conservation area before any work and tells you if consent or notice is needed. You make any application yourself. If you want to check first, you can read the rules on Reigate & Banstead's protected trees page.

The trees round here

The trees here are a mix: mature avenue limes, flowering cherries and oaks planted with the houses, big garden conifers and leylandii screens that have had decades to get away, and beeches on the downs edge toward Woodmansterne and Chipstead.

The work here is a mix to match: crown reductions on avenue trees that have grown over a roof or blocked the light, sectional dismantles where gardens are tight against the house, boundary hedges brought back within the green, and stump grinding once a tree is out. Long front gardens and soft downs-edge ground mean we bring ground boards and the tracked lift when a lawn or a slope cannot take a truck.

FAQ

The things people around Banstead, Nork and the downs edges ask us most, answered straight. Anything else, just ask.

How much does a crown reduction cost in Banstead?

It depends on the size and species of the tree and how much you want taken off, so we price each crown reduction in Banstead on site rather than guess. Reductions are skilled, repeat work, and because we climb and rig wherever we can rather than hire in access, our quotes stay keen. Quotes are free and without obligation.

Do I need permission for tree work in Banstead?

Sometimes. Banstead falls under Reigate & Banstead Borough Council, and many of the mature avenue and garden trees here carry Tree Preservation Orders. Parts of the village also sit in conservation areas, where even routine work needs notice. We check the tree's status before quoting and tell you if you need to apply for consent, so nothing is cut until it is allowed.

Which parts of Banstead do you cover?

The village itself, Burgh Heath, Nork, and the Woodmansterne and Chipstead downs edges. Nork has its own page: see the Nork page. If you are firmly in Woodmansterne village, use the Woodmansterne page; the shared edges are covered from both. Chipstead valley lanes on the Banstead side are on this regular run.

Do you cover Nork?

Yes. Nork is Banstead's tree-lined side, just the other side of the A217, and we cover it as a matter of course. For the avenues, Nork Park and the Burgh Heath edge, see the Nork page.

How much does hedge cutting cost in Banstead?

It depends on the length, height and how overgrown the hedge is, so we price hedge cutting in Banstead on site rather than guess. A regular trim is one job; bringing a neglected leylandii or beech screen back within the green is another. Quotes are free and without obligation.

How quickly can you get to us?

We come up the A217 from our Horley base most weeks, so quote visits are usually within a day or two, most jobs are booked in within a couple of weeks depending on the season, and a dangerous or storm-damaged tree gets a same-day response. Call 07519 952330 at any hour.

How much does tree surgery cost?

It depends on the size of the tree or hedge, how easy it is to reach and how much waste there is to clear, so we price each job properly rather than guess. We come and look rather than quote blind. Quotes are free and without obligation.

Can you work on trees close to houses?

Yes. A lot of Banstead work is trees that have grown into roofs, boundaries and neighbouring gardens. We take them down in sections with proper rigging rather than dropping them, protect the ground on the way in, and clear as we go.

Do you take all the waste away?

Always, and it is included in the quote. Brash is chipped, timber is cut into logs and the garden is cleared before we leave. Plenty of people keep the logs for the wood burner; just say so and we will stack them where you want them.

Do you do emergency callouts?

Yes, 24 hours a day. A limb down over a drive or a tree leaning towards the house cannot wait. Call 07519 952330 and we will make it safe first, then sort the full removal or repair once the immediate danger is dealt with.
