## Tree surgery across Kingston upon Thames
The Tree Fellowes works across Kingston upon Thames and the surrounding Royal Borough, covering the town centre, Surbiton, Norbiton, New Malden, Tolworth and the riverside stretch running down towards Hampton Wick and Canbury Gardens. We&#x27;re based a short run away in Staines-upon-Thames, and Kingston falls comfortably within the area we cover regularly, so a van is never far away when a job needs doing or an emergency callout comes in.

Kingston&#x27;s streets mix a lot of different garden types, and we see all of them week to week. Along the river and around Canbury Gardens there are handsome Victorian and Edwardian villas with mature planes, limes and the odd large poplar that&#x27;s outgrown its spot. Further out towards Tolworth and New Malden the housing is mostly interwar semis and 1930s terraces, often with smaller gardens where a single overgrown conifer or leylandii hedge can dominate the whole plot and block light to neighbours. In the newer developments around Kingston town centre and the riverside apartment blocks, tree work tends to be about managing shared amenity planting or trees close to parking areas and boundary fences.

Read more ↓Read less ↑Kingston sits on London clay, which shrinks and swells with the seasons and is a well-known factor in subsidence claims where tree roots are growing close to a house. We&#x27;re asked fairly regularly to reduce or remove trees near foundations for exactly this reason, as well as for the more routine jobs: deadwooding mature trees in older gardens, taking down storm-damaged limbs after a windy spell off the Thames, and tidying hedges and shrubs that have been left to get away from people. Kingston also has a number of conservation areas, including parts of the town centre and Coombe, and some streets have Tree Preservation Orders on individual trees, and getting the right consent from Kingston Council before work starts is always the customer&#x27;s responsibility, but we&#x27;re happy to carry out the work itself once that&#x27;s in place.

Reviews from the wider area reflect the kind of work we do in Kingston too; nearby Richmond has given us feedback on MyBuilder describing a good job at a reasonable price, and that same combination of straightforward pricing and careful work is what Kingston customers can expect, whether it&#x27;s a single tree in a Surbiton back garden or a run of mature trees along a riverside boundary near Hampton Wick. We carry out jobs across the full range of property types in the borough, from the grand villas near Richmond Park&#x27;s edge to the ex-local-authority housing around Norbiton, and we treat access, parking and site protection as part of every quote rather than an afterthought, which matters on Kingston&#x27;s often narrow residential streets.

Outside of tree work itself, Kingston customers often ask us about timing around the borough&#x27;s recycling and garden waste collections, and we&#x27;re happy to work this into a plan for the job, bagging or chipping arisings so they&#x27;re easy to dispose of afterwards. Whether the job is a single ornamental cherry in a New Malden front garden or a stand of mature trees backing onto the river, we assess each one on its own terms rather than offering a one-size-fits-all service.

We&#x27;re also often contacted by letting agents and landlords managing rental properties around Kingston town centre and Surbiton, where a tree needs attention before a new tenancy starts or as part of routine garden maintenance between lets. In these cases we work directly with agents on timing and access, keeping disruption to a minimum while making sure the work is carried out properly and the garden is left tidy for the next occupant.

Access matters a lot in Kingston, where many rear gardens along the Victorian terraces are reached only through a side passage or over a shared alleyway, and off-street parking near the town centre can be limited on a weekday. We plan equipment and vehicle access as part of every quote, so there are no surprises on the day, whether that&#x27;s a wood chipper parked on a residential road near Surbiton station or hand-carrying brash through a narrow Norbiton side return.

## Common tree issues in Kingston upon Thames
Kingston&#x27;s mix of riverside villas, interwar semis and clay subsoil throws up a particular set of tree problems we deal with regularly.

### London clay and subsidence
Much of Kingston sits on London clay, which shrinks in dry weather and swells when wet. Roots from large trees growing too close to a house can make this worse, which is why reduction or removal near foundations is one of the jobs we&#x27;re called out for most.

### Mature trees in older gardens
The Victorian and Edwardian properties around the town centre and Canbury Gardens often have large, mature trees that have outgrown their original planting position and need regular deadwooding or crown reduction.

### Riverside wind exposure
Gardens close to the Thames and open green spaces such as Canbury Gardens and the riverside path can take a battering in winter storms, leading to broken limbs and the occasional fallen tree that needs clearing quickly.

### Tight gardens in Tolworth and New Malden
Smaller interwar and post-war gardens often have overgrown leylandii or conifer hedges that block light to neighbouring properties and need cutting back or removing entirely.
