Fully Insured Arborists in Victoria

There is an inherent risk in providing essential tree services throughout the wider Melbourne community. Whether it be tree removal, stump grinding or tree lopping. Climbing, tree pruning, and removing trees is hazardous work, particularly when dealing with trees in poor health or with compromised structural integrity. To mitigate this risk and offer our customers financial protection and peace of mind, we provide comprehensive tree service coverage under an industry-leading $10 million OHS insurance plan. Alongside financial security, our arborists prioritise and follow the strictest safety protocols, training, and equipment to safeguard our crews and minimise the occurrence of unforeseen incidents.

Emergency & Storm Cleanup

In situations where there is no time to obtain a tree removal permit from the council, contact our skilled tree arborists (or tree surgeon) in Melbourne who can swiftly perform emergency tree services to mitigate immediate hazards and ensure community safety. Our professional arborists are qualified to handle emergency tree removals, storm cleanups, and tree lopping.

Wood Chipping & Mulching

Our daily tree works within Melbourne’s communities generate a substantial amount of green waste, which we efficiently process using an industrial wood chipper. We break down tree segments into fresh mulch made from locally sourced, organic wood chips. The resulting mulch helps regulate soil temperature and moisture, promoting healthy garden growth. By chipping the green waste, we remove it from our client’s properties while offering the community the opportunity to purchase chemical-free mulch sourced from their local area.

Professional Arborist Reports

Whether it is the Moonee Valley, Darebin or Whitehorse City Council, our Professional Arborist Reports provide invaluable assessments of your tree’s health and are vital for council applications. They give you all the information you need for tree care and council compliance. 

Our expert arborists conduct thorough analyses to identify infestations, damage, disease, structural imbalances, and overweight branches. We also document the tree’s location, species, and relevant environmental considerations for permit applications. We know Melbourne’s tree species like the back of our hand and are well-versed in council regulations. Refer to our guide for a rough estimate of how much an arborist costs in Melbourne.

Council Projects

In addition to serving trees on residential and commercial properties, we undertake essential tree work for local councils in Melbourne. This encompasses professional tree services in public areas, schools, and streets. Our council tree projects aim to create a safer community. As a result, the majority of services our qualified arborists perform for councils involve power line clearance, storm cleanup, fire safety measures, and the removal of dangerously overgrown branches. While councils typically have their own arborists, they occasionally seek assistance from other local arborists for important and intricate jobs.

Power Line Clearance

Ensuring a safe and appropriate distance between trees and power lines is a crucial service our arborists in Melbourne regularly provide. Branches close to electrical sources pose a severe fire hazard, putting you, your home, and your neighbours at risk. We prioritise power line clearance to mitigate this danger and ensure the safety of your property and the surrounding community.
