Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need council approval to remove a tree on my property?

It depends on the tree’s size, species, and your local council regulations. On the Northern Beaches, trees over certain heights or within significant tree registers typically require approval. We’ll assess your tree and advise whether a permit is needed before any work begins. For urgent safety concerns, different rules may apply.

How much does it cost to remove a large tree in my backyard?

Tree removal costs vary based on height, access, proximity to structures, and disposal requirements. A typical residential removal ranges from $800 for small trees to $5,000+ for large, complex jobs. We provide free quotes and can often offer cost-effective alternatives like pruning or canopy reduction if full removal isn’t necessary.

What's the difference between tree lopping and proper pruning?

Lopping involves indiscriminate cutting that can permanently damage trees and create safety hazards. Proper pruning follows Australian Standards (AS 4373-2007), removing specific branches to improve structure, health, and appearance while maintaining the tree’s natural form. We only use qualified arborists who understand tree biology and follow best practices.

Can you remove the stump or will it be left behind?

We offer complete stump grinding services to remove stumps below ground level, typically 200-300mm deep. This prevents regrowth, eliminates trip hazards, and frees up your space for landscaping or construction. Stump grinding can be done immediately after removal or scheduled separately if you’re undecided.

My tree looks sick – can it be saved or does it need removing?

Most tree health issues can be resolved with proper diagnosis and treatment. Our arborists will assess for diseases, pest infestations, root damage, or environmental stress. We’ll recommend treatments like targeted pruning, soil improvement, or pest management before suggesting removal. Sometimes the healthiest option is removal, but we’ll always explore alternatives first.

How close to power lines can you safely work?

We’re fully qualified to work near powerlines and hold all necessary certifications for high-risk tree work. For trees touching or within falling distance of powerlines, we coordinate with Ausgrid when required and follow strict safety protocols. Never attempt this work yourself – it’s the leading cause of tree-related fatalities.

Do you handle tree services for strata complexes and commercial properties?

Absolutely. We service body corporates, councils, schools, and commercial sites across the Northern Beaches. We understand compliance requirements, work around operational hours, provide detailed documentation for strata managers, and can manage ongoing maintenance contracts. Civil projects including street tree management are also within our scope.

What's included in your tree maintenance service?

Regular tree maintenance includes canopy thinning to reduce wind resistance, deadwood removal for safety, structural pruning to prevent limb failure, and clearance pruning away from buildings and powerlines. We recommend annual inspections for most properties, with maintenance every 2-3 years depending on tree species and growth rates.

How quickly can you respond to storm damage or emergency tree removal?

We offer 24/7 emergency response for dangerous trees threatening property or blocking access. During storm events, we prioritise immediate safety hazards and typically respond within hours. Non-urgent storm damage is usually scheduled within 2-3 days. Our team is equipped to handle complete emergency scenarios including SES liaison when required.

Are your team completely insured and what qualifications do your arborists hold?

We carry $50 million public liability insurance and full workers’ compensation coverage. Our team includes AQF Level 3 qualified arborists, certified chainsaw operators, and elevated work platform specialists. All work complies with Australian Standards and WHS regulations. We’re happy to provide certificates of currency and qualification documentation for commercial and civil projects.

Residential Arborist Services

Residential properties in the Inner West often involve terraces, small blocks, and shared boundaries. Trees may be located close to homes, neighbouring properties, and underground or overhead services.

Arborist services in residential settings commonly include pruning for clearance, deadwood removal, palm maintenance, stump grinding, and selective tree removal where appropriate. Access constraints and proximity to structures are key considerations when planning works.

Strata and Managed Properties

Strata-managed properties require coordinated arborist services aligned with safety and maintenance obligations. Works may include routine inspections, pruning programs, deadwooding, and arborist reporting to support compliance and long-term planning.

Scheduling is often coordinated to minimise disruption to residents while maintaining predictable outcomes across common property areas.

Commercial Sites and Schools

Commercial properties and schools in the Inner West require arborist services that prioritise safety in high-use environments. Tree works in these settings are planned to manage risk around pedestrian routes, car parks, playgrounds, and building access points.

Works are often staged or scheduled outside peak operating hours to support safe site use.

Local Council Considerations in the Inner West

Trees within the Inner West are subject to local council controls, which may include tree preservation requirements, heritage overlays, and development-related conditions. Approval requirements vary depending on tree size, species, and location.

Arborist involvement is often required where documentation or reports are needed to support applications or compliance. Assessments focus on tree condition, risk factors, and the potential impact of proposed works. Confirmation of council requirements should be obtained before works proceed.

Arborist Process and Local Service Approach

Site Assessment and Planning

Works begin with an on-site assessment to review tree condition, access constraints, heritage considerations, and proximity to neighbouring properties and public areas. These factors inform method selection and safety planning.

Works Delivery and Completion

Tree works are carried out using methods appropriate to site conditions and scope. On completion, debris is managed as agreed, and sites are left suitable for continued use.
