Tree felling in South Earlswood
When a tree is dead, dying, storm-damaged, lifting a drive or simply too big for the garden, we take it down safely. Where there is room we fell it in one piece with a directional cut; in most gardens we climb and dismantle it in sections, lowering each piece on ropes so nothing lands on a fence, shed or border. We always tell you honestly if a reduction would do instead. How we fell a tree.
Stump grinding and removal
A stump left behind trips people up, sends up suckers and can harbour honey fungus. We grind stumps out below ground level, typically 150 to 300mm down, whether the tree came down last week or years ago, then leave the chippings as mulch or clear them and backfill so the ground is ready for turf or planting. Our grinders fit through a standard garden gate. Send a photo on WhatsApp and we can often price it from that. Stump grinding explained.
Around Earlswood Common it is mostly oak, with sycamore, maple, silver birch, ash and horse chestnut mixed in. The ground is clay, so big oaks grow large and spread wide. Ash across the country is being hit by ash dieback, so a declining ash close to a house, drive or path is a common reason for a tree to come down.
Typical jobs: felling trees that have become dangerous or outgrown the garden, sectional dismantles where a tree is tight to a house, fence or shed, grinding out stumps (ours and ones left by others) so a lawn, path or patio can go in, crown reductions to let light back into rooms, deadwood out of mature oaks, and conifer and hedge screens brought back to height. Where access is tight we climb and rig, and on big or awkward trees we bring the tracked lift when a climb is not the safe option.

The things people around South Earlswood ask us most, answered straight. Anything else, just ask.
It depends on the size of the stump, the species and how easy it is to reach, so we price each one rather than guess. Send us a photo of the stump on WhatsApp and we can often quote from that; otherwise we will pop round. Grinding a stump left after we fell a tree is simple to add to the same quote. Quotes are free and without obligation.
Sometimes. South Earlswood is in Reigate & Banstead Borough Council. If a tree has a Tree Preservation Order, or stands in a conservation area, the council needs an application or six weeks' written notice before it comes down. We check your tree's status before we quote and tell you if you need to apply for consent, so nothing is felled until it is allowed.
For most gardens they mean the same thing. We grind the stump and main root plate out below ground level, typically 150 to 300mm down and deeper where you want a path or new planting, which stops regrowth. We then leave the chippings as mulch or clear them and backfill so the ground is level. Digging a stump out by hand leaves a crater, and chemical stump killers are slow, which is why grinding is the standard way to finish a removal.
All of it: the streets south of Earlswood Common, the lakes side of the common, Whitebushes, and the A23 and railway side down toward Salfords. Salfords has its own page (Salfords & Sidlow) and so does Redhill, for Earlswood north of the common, Meadvale and the town. If you are on a boundary, just call; we cover both sides.
Not on the common itself. Those trees are the council's, so report problems with them to Reigate & Banstead Borough Council. We work on trees in your own garden and can advise what you are allowed to do about branches overhanging your boundary.
Yes. Where there is no room to drop a tree in one piece, we climb it and take it down in sections, roping and lowering each piece under control so nothing hits a fence, shed or the neighbour's garden. On the tightest or tallest jobs we bring the tracked lift, and we protect lawns and borders on the way in and out.
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. A straightforward fell in an open garden is quick; a big tree dismantled over a roof takes longer. Quotes are free and without obligation.
Quickly. South Earlswood is on the A23 between our Horley base and Redhill. 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.
Always, and it is included in the quote. Brash is chipped, timber is cut into logs and the garden is cleared before we leave. If you want to keep the logs for a wood burner, say so and we will stack them where you want them.
Yes, 24 hours a day. A tree down across a garden after a storm, or one leaning toward the house, cannot wait. Call 07519 952330 and we will make it safe first, then sort the full removal and stump grinding once the immediate danger is dealt with.
