What Affects the Cost?

Key cost drivers include tree height, diameter, species, and health. Mature oaks and conifers cost more to remove than birch or ash. Site access matters—tight spaces or proximity to buildings increase risk and labour. Whether the tree is diseased, dead, or has preservation orders affects complexity. Stump removal adds cost separately. Weather and seasonal demand (autumn/winter are busier) may influence pricing. Disposal of chippings and logs is often included but confirm with your arborist.

Money-Saving Tips

Request quotations from 2–3 local surgeons; prices vary by experience and overheads. Consider multiple jobs in one visit—discounts often apply. Obtain quotes in autumn/winter when crews have availability. Some arborists offer lower rates for log removal if you allow them to sell as firewood or timber.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need planning permission to fell a tree in Midhurst?

Trees over 7.5cm diameter in conservation areas, or subject to a Tree Preservation Order (TPO), require council consent before felling. Your tree surgeon should verify this; felling without permission can result in fines up to £20,000. Most arborists will apply on your behalf or advise on requirements.

What's included in a tree surgeon's quote?

Professional quotes typically include felling, chipping/logs, stump removal, site clearance, and public liability insurance. Confirm VAT, disposal fees, and whether log removal or chipping is included. Some surgeons charge extra for site restoration (raking, re-turfing).

How long does tree felling take?

Small trees (up to 20ft) take 2–4 hours. Medium trees (20–40ft) require 4–8 hours or even a full day. Large or hazardous trees may take 2–3 days. Site access, weather, and debris disposal affect duration. Your surgeon will estimate timescale before starting work.

Is stump removal necessary, or can I leave the stump?

Leaving a stump risks regrowth, pest harbouring, and trip hazards. Grinding costs £120–£300 but eliminates these issues and frees ground for replanting or landscaping. Chemical stump killers are cheaper (£20–£50) but take months and aren't always reliable.
