# Tree Felling in Croydon
Tree felling in Croydon typically costs between £400 and £1,600 and takes half a day to a full day, depending on the size of the tree and how much space the team has to work in. Most Croydon gardens are too enclosed for a straight fell, so we dismantle the tree in sections from the canopy down using ropes and rigging, then chip and remove everything before we leave.

## Tree Felling in Croydon
Croydon covers everything from Victorian terraces around West Croydon to the large interwar plots in Shirley, Sanderstead and Selsdon, and the felling method changes completely between them. On a terraced plot with a three-metre-wide side return, the only safe approach is a climbing fell with every limb lowered on rigging lines to a controlled drop zone. On the bigger Shirley and Addington gardens we can often use a mobile elevated work platform to speed the job up and reduce time on site.

The borough has a large stock of mature Lombardy poplar, sycamore and leylandii planted through the 1950s and 60s, and a good share of the felling work we quote in Croydon involves trees that have simply outgrown their setting — poplars lifting patios, or 12-metre leylandii screens dropping needles into a neighbour’s guttering. Poplar and willow in particular have shallow, water-hungry root systems that cause the subsidence claims we get called out to across the CR0 and CR2 postcodes.

Croydon Council operates a significant number of Tree Preservation Orders and several Conservation Areas, including Park Hill, Waddon and South Norwood. Before we fell anything we run a check against the council’s TPO map. If the tree is protected we prepare and submit the application for you at no extra cost — a Section 211 notice for Conservation Area trees carries a six-week notice period, so it pays to start early.

## How Much Does Tree Felling Cost in Croydon?
£400 – £1,600

Typical range for a domestic fell in Croydon, subject to a free site survey. Large or crane-assisted removals are quoted separately.

### What Changes the Price

- Tree height, trunk diameter and species — a mature oak takes far longer than a 10-metre birch
- Access: rear-garden trees reached only through the house or a narrow side return add labour
- Proximity to buildings, boundary walls, greenhouses, conservatories and overhead cables
- Whether the stump is ground out afterwards or left at ground level
- Volume of arisings and whether you want logs retained for a wood burner
- TPO or Conservation Area consent, which we handle but which adds lead time
