About the company

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Pruning, crown reduction, hedge trimming and the removal of fallen or unwanted trees make up the bulk of the work carried out by South London Tree Surgeons from their base on Wendover Rd in SE9. Josh is named in the majority of accounts and is described as courteous, communicative and quick to provide a quote, often fitting jobs in at short notice, including one squeezed in after a cancellation. A recurring theme is the tidiness left behind, with gardens and neighbouring plots described as spotless once the cuttings and debris have been cleared.

Several clients mention favourable pricing alongside efficient turnaround, and one account of a large oak tackled on a particularly windy day highlights the team working steadily and safely at height. Dogs on site have not caused any disruption to the work, and hedges, olive trees and general shrubs have been reshaped alongside larger felling jobs. One fallen tree was removed with minimal fuss shortly after it came down, and a large rear-garden tree was taken out leaving the space immaculate. The company is reachable at any hour across the week, and repeat custom features strongly among those who have used the service more than once.

Josh and his Team were absolutely brilliant! The quote was very competitive but I would pay more as they did such an amazing job! Communicating perfectly, being on time with a “can-do” attitude they tackled the most challenging work in my garden. Absolutely brilliant! A pleasure to have them around as just getting on with it, super tidy and polite. Also I was so impressed of how safe the work and how much they got done in a short space of time! Would highly recommend a very deserved 10/10!! I will definitely recommend to friends and neighbours but also book them again myself. Thank you Josh & Team

Used them to trim back some neglected and over grown trees in a clients garden in Clapham Common. They arrived on time and completed the project to a very high standard. They are very knowledgable and I will definitely use them again.

After completing a big job on a neighbour's tree, I asked Josh if they could just trim my overgrown hedges. They did a fantastic job. They also re-shaped my olive tree and tidied up other trees and bushes in the garden. Professional and very pleasant to deal with, I would not hesitate to recommend SLTS services!

Josh arranged to give us a quote very quickly and fitted the work in due to a cancellation. He arrived promptly on both occasions and was courteous and gave good advice. They worked efficiently and with good humour on a very windy day up a very large oak tree! After the work was finished the garden was left immaculately tidy. The tree looks better than I've ever seen it! Thank you all!
