Professional Tree Care in Dorking and the Surrey Hills

Red Oak Tree Care provides NPTC-qualified tree surgery across Dorking, Leatherhead, Brockham and the wider Surrey Hills. From tree felling and crown reduction to stump grinding and hedge cutting, we handle every aspect of tree care for homeowners and commercial clients across the area.

The Dorking area is home to some of Surrey’s most significant mature trees, oak, beech, ash and sweet chestnut are all common in the Surrey Hills AONB. We understand the local tree stock, the terrain, and the planning considerations that come with working in a designated landscape.

Tree Preservation Orders are widespread across the Mole Valley district, and many properties in and around Dorking fall within conservation areas. We carry out all necessary TPO and conservation area checks before any work begins, and manage all applications on your behalf.
