Your local tree surgeons

Salfords is the next village up the A23 from us, so we are through it most days: the long gardens off the Brighton Road, Honeycrock Lane and Masons Bridge Road, the closes around the station, and out along the lanes to Sidlow Bridge and Irons Bottom, where the plots turn into paddocks. It is a patch we know house by house.

Five minutes up the road means quote visits within a day or two, fast emergency callouts and no travel time built into the price. We are a family firm, established in 2018, and most jobs here start with a neighbour passing on our number.

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: Salfords and Sidlow fall under Reigate & Banstead Borough Council, and a fair number of trees here, especially the old oaks along the lanes and around the older farmhouses, are covered by Tree Preservation Orders. We check the status of your tree before any work and handle the application for you.

The trees round here

This is Low Weald country: heavy clay, hedgerow oaks, ash, field maple and hornbeam along the lanes, and willows, alders and tall poplars wherever the ground gets wet towards the Mole at Sidlow. The long gardens along the Brighton Road tend to have inherited a leylandii screen or two, a big conifer and a few fruit trees planted with the house.

So the work here is a mix: crown reductions on hedgerow oaks that have got too close to the house, poplars and willows that have turned brittle, leylandii taken down or brought back within the green, and field boundary hedges cut back hard. Wet ground is part of the job, so we bring ground boards and the tracked lift when a garden cannot take a truck.

FAQ

The things people around Salfords and Sidlow ask us most, answered straight. Anything else, just ask.

How much does a crown reduction cost in Salfords and Sidlow?

It depends on the size and species of the tree and how much you want taken off, so we price each crown reduction in Salfords and Sidlow 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 Salfords or Sidlow?

Sometimes. Salfords and Sidlow fall under Reigate & Banstead Borough Council, and a fair number of trees here carry Tree Preservation Orders, particularly the old oaks along the lanes and around the older farmhouses. We check your tree's status before quoting and handle the application for you, so nothing is cut without the right consent in place.

Which parts of Salfords and Sidlow do you cover?

All of it: the Brighton Road from the Horley end up to Woodhatch, Honeycrock Lane, Masons Bridge Road and the Axes Lane side, the closes around the station, and out along the lanes to Sidlow Bridge, Irons Bottom and Horse Hill. We also work the Earlswood edge and across to South Nutfield, so being on a boundary is never a problem.

How quickly can you get to us?

Quickly, because you are five minutes up the A23 from our yard in Horley. 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. Quotes are free and without obligation, and with no travel time to build in, our prices around Salfords are as keen as they get.

Can you deal with big leylandii and overgrown boundary hedges?

Yes, they are a big part of our work along the Brighton Road, where most of the long gardens have inherited a leylandii screen or a conifer that has got away. We reduce them in stages, staying within the green so they do not go brown, or take them out altogether where they are beyond saving, and field boundary hedges are cut back hard and tidied. We tell you honestly which it needs.

What about trees on wet ground or near the river?

Sidlow sits on the River Mole and the ground round here is heavy clay, so willows, alders and tall poplars are common and access can be soft for half the year. We plan for it: ground boards to protect the lawn, the tracked lift where a truck cannot get in, and a date in drier weather where the job can wait. Brittle poplars and willows leaning over a lane or a paddock are something we deal with regularly.

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 out here 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. The open fields either side of the A23 give the wind a good run at the trees, and a limb down over a drive, a poplar across a paddock 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.
