Tree Services Northern Beaches

Tree service costs depend on the type of work, tree size, and site access. Small pruning jobs can start from a few hundred dollars, while larger removals or difficult-access work cost more because they need extra crew time, equipment, and cleanup. We provide free, no-obligation on-site quotes with transparent pricing and no hidden fees. See our tree services cost guide for detailed pricing.

In most cases, yes. Northern Beaches Council tree preservation orders protect trees over 5 metres tall or with a trunk diameter exceeding 300mm. Exemptions apply to certain species (such as Cocos Palms), dead trees, and trees posing an immediate safety risk. For applications that need supporting documentation, our arborist reports service explains the report pathway. Read our tree permit guide for full details.

Our practical tree-work team holds a minimum Certificate III in Arboriculture (AQF Level 3), with senior consulting support available for report and assessment work. We carry $20 million public liability insurance and full workers compensation coverage. Tree pruning work is completed to Australian Standard AS 4373.

Whether a tree has fallen in Dee Why, a branch is threatening your roof in Manly, or storm damage has struck in Frenchs Forest, our fully equipped emergency team is ready to respond.

We service all 48 Northern Beaches suburbs from Manly in the south to Palm Beach in the north, including Dee Why, Brookvale, Mona Vale, Frenchs Forest, Narrabeen, Collaroy, Newport, Avalon, Freshwater, Forestville, and surrounding areas. There is no travel surcharge for any Northern Beaches suburb.

It depends on the tree, the reason for the work, and how much canopy can be safely reduced. Some trees only need selective pruning for clearance or structure, while others need heavier height or width reduction. Our team assesses the tree and recommends the safest approach before quoting.
