FAQS REGARDING OUR BUSINESS & TREE SURGERY IN SURREY
[H3] What qualifications do you need to be a tree surgeon in the UK?
As previously mentioned, it is of vital importance that your chosen tree surgeon is qualified and competent to carry out the task required. There are two recognised awarding bodies, NPTC (https://www.nptc.org.uk/) and LANTRA (https://www.lantra.co.uk/). Both organisations provide qualifications for a vast number of land-based activities, and you must make sure your tree surgeon holds the correct awards. The staff at Guildford Tree Surgeons have many NPTC, and LANTRA awards, too many to list individually, so are available upon request. Rest assured all our operatives hold the relevant qualifications for the tasks they carry out.
[H3] What insurance should a professional tree surgeon have?
Tree surgery, by nature, is a hazardous and high-risk profession, and it is for that reason that you ensure your tree surgeon has adequate cover. As a minimum, the tree contractor should have public and also employers liability insurance. At Guildford Tree Surgeons, we have £10 million Public Liability and Employers Liability cover, which protects us, you and the public should anything ever happen.
[H3] How do I find a good tree surgeon?
In addition to checking your tree surgeon has the right qualifications and insurance cover, you should always take the time to get some references from previous clients. In the past, this task could be tricky as you would have to ask the contractor for references, and they could provide you with biased or fraudulent referees. Luckily, times have changed, and you can view reviews of previous work at the click of a button. Guildford Tree Surgeons take real pride in our work and hold total customer satisfaction at the core of our business. You can view some of the great feedback we have received via Google Reviews, Which? Trusted Traders, Yell and Buy With Confidence, as well as on our social media accounts such as Facebook.
[H3] Do you provide free site visits and no-obligation written quotations?
Yes, we always suggest a free site visit so we can come to assess your project and discuss your requirements. Once you have decided on what you require, we can then provide you with a written quotation. Contact us today to arrange a site visit and a free quote.
[H3] Can you provide a quotation from videos, photographs and a description?
Due to the large number of variables to consider when assessing a tree surgery project, without conducting a site visit, we are only able to provide ESTIMATES using videos, photos and descriptions.
[H3] I would just like some advice about my tree, is that something you can offer?
Yes, of course, please feel free to contact us, and we’ll do our best to help or put you in touch with someone who can. We have an extensive network of arboricultural and horticultural contacts.
[H3] How much do tree surgeons cost in the UK?
Monetary cost is ultimately one of the most important factors for customers when choosing a tree surgeon and the question of “how much do tree surgeons charge per hour?” gets asked time and time again. The answer to this question is very complicated, as each job must be priced individually due to the number of variables involved. For example here are just a few considerations we would need to make before calculating the cost of the job:
The size of the tree – more material will result in more material to transport and dispose of.
The location of the tree and its surroundings – if the tree is in an awkward place or overhangs buildings/property limbs may need to be lowered, and this will increase the time required.
The distance to travel from tree to truck and chipper – the further the distance the longer time it will take to transport.
The health of the tree – if the tree is unhealthy this will increase the risks involved and if it’s too dangerous to climb we may need to price in the cost of a MEWP (Cherry Picker) or Crane.
Does the location of the tree pose a risk to the public? – if the tree is close to a path or road, we may need to apply and price for closure or traffic management.
As you can see, there are far too many things to consider to determine an average price per job or hourly rate for a tree surgeon. The best course of action is to utilise our free site visit and quotation service by contacting us today.
[H3] Do you dispose of all the tree waste?
Most of our clients request us to remove all the arisings from the site; however, if you would like to keep the woodchip or timber that’s entirely up to you. Woodchip has numerous applications around the garden, and there is an increasing demand for timber as firewood. If you require the cordwood cutting to a specific length “ready to burn” please make us aware at the time of quoting.
[H3] Do you dispose of stump grindings/chippings/arisings?
Our chosen method to remove stumps is called stump grinding. We have a high powered machine called a stump grinder which uses teeth on a flywheel to chip the stump into small pieces. The process turns the stump into grindings that mix into the soil and break down naturally over time. At first, you will be left with a small mound but as the chippings break down the mound will level off. WE DO NOT REMOVE GRINDINGS UNLESS SPECIFIED OTHERWISE; this is industry standard practice for stump grinding.
[H3] Are my trees protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or in a Conservation Area?
Many trees and hedges come under the protection of a TPO or because they are located in a conservation area. It is illegal to carry out work on trees and hedges of this nature without permission, and both you and the tree contractor may face fines and criminal prosecution. The local planning authority must grant consent BEFORE you commence any work whatsoever.
[H3] Can you check to see if permission is required and submit an application for tree work on my behalf?
Guildford Tree Surgeons are happy to provide our customers with a complete service; we can check to see if you require permission and submit a TPO application free of charge providing you choose us to complete the tree work. We have submitted many successful applications over the years and have built a strong relationship with many local councils. We can also offer an application to the local authority as a chargeable standalone service if you wish to select another contractor.
It will take a minimum of 6 weeks to grant permission for work in a conservation area and from 8 weeks for work on trees with TPOs.
Alternatively, you can always apply yourself; more informati

[H2] Felling Trees In Surrey & The South East
[IMG: Tree felling in Surrey by Guildford Tree Surgeons]
Generally speaking, there are two methods of felling trees: section tree felling and straight tree felling.
[H3] What is Section Tree Felling?
Section tree felling is a felling technique used to fell trees by dismantling them into smaller sections.
Felling a tree in sections becomes necessary when there is limited space in the surrounding area.
Sectional tree felling allows us to safely fell trees and avoid obstacles such as buildings, roads and utilities.
There are various ways of sectional dismantling trees, but most involve working from the top down using aerial operations.
[H4] Methods of Sectional Felling/Dismantling:
Work positioning (Climbing with ropes and a harness)
In tree surgery, work positioning involves a certified climber using ropes and a harness to ascend to the top of a tree to secure an anchor point.
The climber then descends to the lowest point of the canopy before working their way back up, removing branches in manageable sections.
Depending on the situation, the arborist will use approved cutting methods paired with free fall or roped and rigged lowering techniques.
Ropes and rigging equipment allow the lowering of larger sections and offer greater control compared to free fall techniques.
Standard rigging equipment includes ropes, blocks and pulleys, which use tension and friction to control the branches’branches’ direction and speed.
Rigging involves the climber fixing a pulley to an anchor point in the tree with the strength to hold the weight of the sections.
The pulley reduces friction on the rope and allows a smoother lowering action, which prevents shock loading and avoids wear on the equipment.
The rope is attached to the section to be lowered and fed through the pulley and down to a competent person who will control its descent.
The ground crew may use a rigging block for heavy branches or sections to create more friction and increase control, leading to safer lowering.
Ariel access using a Mobile Elevated Working Platform (MEWP)
If a tree is unsafe to climb, we can use a MEWP or cherry picker to access the tree.
While MEWPs allow access to unsafe trees, they require more space and suitable ground conditions.
Our experienced MEWP operators always conduct comprehensive risk assessments before any work begins.
If conditions are safe, the operator will attach himself to the basket to lower the risk of falling.
Once safely secured, the MEWP operator will dismantle the tree in sections like they would from a working position.
Using a chainsaw from a MEWP requires professional training and should only be performed by a competent operator.
Crane-assisted section tree felling
Similar to section felling using a MEWP, we use crane-assisted dismantling when trees are too dangerous to climb.
The difference between crane-assisted felling and MEWP-assisted felling is that a crane can lift and lower large heavy sections.
Crane-assisted felling is a highly efficient method of dismantling trees, but cranes require significant space and suitable ground conditions.
Further training and experience are vital to safely performing crane work; the operator and climber must be certified in tree-specific operations.
We have qualified arborists, tree surgeons and operators who’vewho’ve successfully used cranes to dismantle trees in the most challenging locations.
Furthermore, we have the correct specialist public and employer tree surgeon insurance covering crane-assisted tree work.
Mechanised sectional tree felling
Mechanised tree dismantling uses machinery to dismantle trees in sections mechanically.
Grapple saw attachments on excavators, telehandlers, HIABs trucks, and specialist machines can hold, cut, and manoeuvre sections with ease.
Using this type of machinery eliminates the need for a climber and increases safety and productivity.
We have qualified operators and access to the latest mechanised tree-felling machinery, allowing us to offer the safest, most efficient service.
Contact us for a free sectional tree felling consultation or to arrange a site visit and quotation with no obligation.
[H3] What is straight tree felling?
Section tree felling is a felling technique used to fell trees in one go in their entirety.
The basic process of felling a tree
When straight-felling, the tree feller will make an initial wedge-shaped cut (gob cut) at the base to determine the direction in which it falls.
The tree feller will then make a secondary felling cut to ensure the tree falls in a safe, fluid, singular motion.
If performed correctly and in the right environment, straight felling is much safer and quicker than section tree felling.
Straight tree felling removes the need to climb trees or work at height, which are incredibly hazardous activities.
The downside of the straight tree felling method is it requires adequate unobstructed space around the tree.
Our qualified straight tree felling specialists assess every straight tree felling project and decide if it’s safe to proceed.
If the risk of straight-felling a tree is too high, we’ll quickly adjust our approach in favour of a more suitable solution.
In addition to felling cuts, we can help guide the direction of a falling tree by using wedges, ropes, winches, vehicles and machinery.
Safety is paramount with straight tree felling as the margin for error is slim, and the risk is significant, especially for larger trees.
If the space and environment allow it, our experienced and certified tree felling experts have the skill to take on any straight tree felling task.
Contact us today for a free straight tree felling consultation or to book a site visit and quotation with zero obligation.
[H3] Tree Removal
Following tree felling, most clients will request we remove the tree arisings from the site.
Removing trees from challenging locations is one of our specialities, and we have a range of tree surgeon machinery and equipment to assist us.
We usually chip the branches using a wood chipper into the back of our bespoke tree surgery trucks ready to for transportation.
Our team extract timber using machinery and equipment such as skid steers, arb trolleys or, as a last resort, by hand.
For trees in extremely hard-to-reach locations, we also use cranes to lift trees either as a whole or in manageable sections.
We only use highly qualified and experienced arborists and crane operators for crane-assisted tree removal projects.
The green waste we generate through tree removal is repurposed as wood chips, logs and firewood or sent to power stations as biomass.
We can provide tree removal as a standalone service, but we often combine it as part of tree felling projects.
Whatever your requirements are, we’ll work with you to deliver the most Cost-effective and efficient solution.

[H2] Removing Stumps In Surrey & The South East
[IMG: A stump grinder on a stump removal project in Surrey by Guildford Tree Surgeons]
[H2] How To Remove A Tree Stump
There are several ways to remove a tree stump; however, using a stump grinder is often the quickest and most effective method.
A stump grinder uses hardened cutting teeth attached to an engine-propelled spinning flywheel to cut the stump into smaller pieces.
Stump grinding involves sweeping the flywheel from side to side while the teeth progressively grind the stump down to below ground level.
It is standard industry practice to grind only the main stump buttress and immediate lateral roots to a depth of 25-30cm.
The stump fragments, also known as grindings, are used to backfill the hole the stump previously occupied.
The grindings will initially mound above ground level but soon compost down over time.
Backfilling the hole with the grindings helps prevent accidents concerning the void and adds nutrients to the surrounding soil.
If your project requires deeper grinding, additional root removal or disposal of the grindings, make us aware, and we’ll make allowances in the quotation.
[H2] Other Ways To Remove A Tree Stump
While stump grinding is our preferred method of removing stumps, a few other options are available, some of which we will discuss below.
[H3] Digging Stumps Out
Digging out smaller stumps by hand is possible, although this can be very trying and labour-intensive.
Alternatively, you could use an excavator, although you’ll require suitable access, and they can often cause mess and ground damage.
A stump grinder operated by a skilled and qualified professional would offer a more precise and less messy stump removal solution.
[H3] Winching A Stump
Winching stumps out is possible; however, this method will inevitably cause damage to the surrounding ground.
Depending on the winch type, winching can be very slow and, in some situations, quite dangerous.
There have been many accounts of winching attempts going wrong, resulting in damage to property or people getting injured.
[H3] Burning Stumps Out
Burning the stump out of the ground is another option, but it would be essential to consider the fire risks involved.
Fires have the potential to get out of control very quickly and even spread through a tree’s root system.
Risk assessments and suitable preventive measures must implemented before burning out stumps.
[H3] Chemical Stump Remover
Chemical stump removal products can help to prevent regrowth and speed up the rotting process.
Some tree species, such as willow, can regenerate from just the stump or roots, so applying chemicals like glyphosate may be required.
Using chemical stump removers to physically remove a stump takes time, so we’d suggest using an alternative for a quicker solution.
While many chemical stump removers are on the market, we recommend and use Eco-Plugs.
Eco-plugs are small plastic cartridges containing glyphosate, which you drill into tree stumps around the cambium.
Once the plugs are correctly positioned, they are hit to release the chemical safely.
Eco-plugs prevent accidental exposure to the chemicals inside, so they’re ideal for pet owners, parents and stumps in public spaces.
Stump removal chemicals like glyphosate are dangerous, so read and follow instructions carefully.

[H2] Pruning Trees In Surrey & The South East
[IMG: Tree pruning in Surrey by Guildford Tree Surgeons]
Tree pruning is a targeted, low-impact procedure that can help to remove localised diseases, deadwood and potentially hazardous branches. This process can also be used to improve the cosmetic look of your tree/s by opening up additional space and sightlines as well as helping to shape the overall density.
Rather than simply hacking off unwanted branches, tree limbs are pruned in such a way as to promote healthy regrowth without causing unnecessary damage to the tree itself. By taking into account the tree’s size, location and shape, our expert arboriculturists will ensure that your trees are given the best possible chance to recover and flourish.
[H3] Formative Pruning
Formative pruning is a type of tree surgery that is specifically targeted at growing or fledgling trees. Rather than tending to a much larger tree many years down the line, formative pruning allows you to begin influencing the shape and structure of a tree from early on in its life.
This process can help you to avoid large-scale (and costly) repairs in the future, as well as ensure that your tree has the best chance of remaining disease-free whilst growing comfortably in a suitably sized space.
[H3] Crown Thinning
Crown thinning is a common tree surgery process that involves the careful removal of smaller branches in order to promote healthily, evenly spread foliage across the crown. It’s essential that a trained professional carries out this task due to the dangers involved in working around the crown whilst making sure that enough is left to keep the tree’s natural appearance.
There are a number of reasons why this proves to be a suitable solution. Crown thinning can help to overcome a loss of light to the plants beneath the tree as well as keep its growth under control in a restricted space.
It can also help to keep the space safe by removing fragile limbs and branches which would otherwise be left to rot and fall on their own accord.
[H3] Crown Reduction & Re-Shaping
Crown reduction and reshaping involve the removal of parts of the crown in order to address issues where the tree has become unbalanced or misshaped. It’s recommended that no more than 30% of the crown be removed in order to avoid leaving a sparse, poorly filled space within the tree.
This technique leaves the tree looking completely natural whilst restricting the size of the crown to fit in with its natural space, and is a great way to avoid the costlier option of relocating a tree to a more suitable area.
[H3] Deadwood Removal
Removing deadwood from trees can go a long way to preserving their lives whilst helping to avoid diseases, light blockage and a build-up of unnecessary weight.
Deadwood within trees can be beneficial due to the nutrients that they provide; however, it’s far more critical for trees and the surrounding plants to have access to rainwater, sunlight and space.
Our deadwood removal service also covers the removal of all garden and green waste from both commercial and residential sites in order to help keep your space in tip-top condition whilst avoiding diseases from rodents and other unwanted pests.
[H3] Crown Lifting
Crown lifting is an ideal solution for those looking to create more space and better airflow around the lower reaches of their tree/s.
By removing the lowest branches up to a pre-agreed height, the crown of the tree is effectively raised, which can solve a number of issues, including light access, sight lines, and even making it easier to mow around the area.
It’s recommended that the crown is not lifted beyond 1/3 of the tree’s overall height in order to reduce stress and increase its natural shape.
Guildford Tree Surgeons most commonly provide crown lifting, crown reductions and tree pruning in Guildford and its surrounding towns and villages, including Woking, Mayford, Milford, Bramley, Shamley Green, Chilworth, Albury, Shere, West Clandon, Send, Sutton Green, Godalming, Jacobs Wells, Worplesdon, Fairlands, Normandy, Wanborough, Farnham, Seale and Compton to name just a few.

Testimonials
Trees reduced and shaped.
“I have used Guildford tree surgeons many times and have recommended them to both friends and family. On this occasion, as on previous jobs, Mark was punctual, friendly and extremely hard working. His pride in his work was evident and throughout the day constantly checked I was happy with his work. When finished, Mark tidied up and left the ground as he found them. Mark and Guildford tree surgeons were competitive with their prices and did a full days work. I would not hesitate to recommend Guildford tree surgeons.”

Willow tree crown reduction.
“Guildford Tree Surgeons came to perform at 30% crown reduction on our willow tree that was overshadowing the rear garden. What a difference the work has made. They have completed a very neat and evenly trimmed job that has illuminated the garden. I was expecting a higher price for a day’s work for two. We are completely over the moon with the results. I would thoroughly recommend Mark and Guildford Tree Surgeons to anyone wanting a no hassle, friendly professional to carry out this type of difficult task. The team arrived promptly at 08:00 and were very friendly. Many thanks…”
