Tree surgery in Chelmsford
Chelmsford is at the south-west end of the A12 route we work from our Colchester base. We cover the city and the villages between, including Springfield, Great Baddow, Broomfield, Writtle, Boreham and Hatfield Peverel.
Chelmsford mixes older housing near the centre with large estates and newer developments on the edges of the city. Gardens range from small modern plots, where one tree can take up most of the space, to older properties with mature trees and long hedges.
Common work in Chelmsford includes reducing trees that have grown too big for the garden, taking down trees close to houses in sections, cutting back conifer hedges, grinding out stumps and clearing overgrown gardens.
How fast we get to Chelmsford
Chelmsford is on the A12 from our Colchester base. The phone is answered 24/7 and every enquiry gets a same-day response. Dangerous and storm-damaged trees are made safe as a priority.

Common tree problems in Chelmsford
Small plots, big trees
On newer estates a single tree can shade the whole garden. Reduction keeps it in proportion; where that is not enough, removal and stump grinding frees up the space.
Tight access
Terraced and estate houses often have no side access. Where limbs cannot be dropped, they are rigged and lowered in sections.
Conifer boundaries
Leylandii hedges between neighbours get out of hand fast. We reduce them to a sensible height and keep the line even.
Protected trees
Some trees in Chelmsford have a Tree Preservation Order or sit in a conservation area. We check on the site visit and work to the consent granted by Chelmsford City Council.
How a Chelmsford job runs
Step 1
Free site visit
We come out and look at the tree or hedge in person, checking access, ground conditions and what sits underneath. The visit and quote are free, with no obligation.
Step 2
Assessment and consent check
We identify the species, its condition and the sensible option, whether that is to reduce, prune or remove. We also check whether the tree has a Tree Preservation Order or sits in a conservation area.
Step 3
Written price and agreed date
You get the price in writing, with the work set out clearly and waste removal included. Then we agree a start date.
Step 4
Controlled work on site
A 2–3 person team, a climbing team plus ground crew, carries out the work. Wherever anything sits beneath, limbs are rigged and lowered rather than dropped.
Step 5
Clear-up and walk-round
Waste, wood and chippings are removed and recycled, all included in the price. The site is swept, and we walk the job with you before we leave.

What local customers say
“James did an awesome job taking down four trees in my back garden. He was on time every day, very polite and professional, and his prices were extremely competitive as well. The quality of his work was excellent, and we are extremely happy with the final outcome. I would massively recommend this company and will definitely be using them again in the future. Without a doubt, one of the best around in Colchester!”
“Had a video pop up from Tree-Volution on my feed which made me finally think about getting a quote for the removal of a Holly tree. Rang the number, booked an appointment, and a couple of days later met James to discuss. Very affable guy and no BS! Had an indication of the cost there and then, with an agreement to review planning and get back to me. This was all followed through as discussed with today booked in for the work. James and the guys turned up as agreed - all extremely pleasant to deal with - and were wonderfully efficient in not only taking down the tree (and grinding out the root) but also taking the time to clean up afterwards! (Front garden now looks better than before they arrived). In addition James took the time to comment on the future care of other trees and we will definitely have him back to complete further work. Would thoroughly recommend!”
“James and his team gave a first class service, work carried out as instructed and they left the garden clean and tidy. Work was five star and they cut and shaped many trees. Did an amazing job on our conifer hedge. Thank you all for your fantastic work. Kindest regards Sally”
