Our services

TREE MAINTENANCE

Our friendly team of specialist Wimbledon arborists offer free advice during the initial consultation to ensure the most appropriate approach for your tree(s). We are experienced in all pruning methods to maintain tree health and vitality, including crown thinning, crown raising, crown reduction and pollarding.

TREE REMOVAL, FELLING AND DISMANTLING

Where a tree in Wimbledon requires full removal, our experienced team plans and carries out the work with precision and care. We specialise in dismantling hazardous, damaged or difficult trees and ensure all debris is chipped, cleared and disposed of responsibly.

STUMP REMOVAL

Our stump removal services in Wimbledon are carried out with care and attention to detail, helping to minimise disruption to your garden or surrounding area. Using specialist stump grinding machinery, our arborists remove stumps efficiently and with a clean, controlled finish.

Whether dealing with a small ornamental tree or a larger stump, we ensure safe removal followed by high-quality ground reinstatement, leaving the area ready for replanting or future landscaping.

HEDGE CUTTING AND REMOVAL

Alongside our tree surgery services, we provide professional hedge cutting and removal throughout Wimbledon. Our team works with a wide range of hedge species, carrying out regular maintenance or one-off reductions to keep hedges manageable, healthy and well-shaped.

Whether maintaining formal boundary hedges or managing larger, informal growth, we take a careful, considered approach and always provide honest advice on timing and long-term care. All work is completed efficiently, with minimal disruption, and the site is left tidy and well managed.

A 4 man team from William Gordon Countryside Services felled 3 trees and reduced the canopy on 2 further trees in my back garden. I am delighted with my garden’s new appearance. These men were clearly very skilled in their work, and the methodical way they completed their task was a joy to witness. They also left my garden spotless. Would not hesitate to recommend this company. Great team, great service, great price - I’m very happy. Tom W

Very pleased with the work that William Gordon Services completed in our garden. The team were friendly, prompt and very tidy to take care when moving around the rest of the garden. We were happy to leave them to work whilst we were out too. I would reccomend them to anyone looking for tree surgery work.
