Straight answers about prices, Council requirements, urgent work and choosing a service
The price depends on what needs doing, the tree's size and condition, access to the work area, nearby buildings or services, and the equipment required. We provide a free on-site assessment and a written quote that explains what is included. Our tree removal cost guide and pruning and lopping price guide explain the main pricing factors.
It depends on the tree, your property and the work you want to do. Exemptions may apply, but other planning, biodiversity or property controls can still affect the decision. Check Northern Beaches Council's current guidance before work starts. Our tree permit guide explains the questions to ask.
Our emergency tree service is available 24 hours a day, including weekends and public holidays. We aim to respond within two hours and prioritise calls by the danger to people, buildings, access and power lines. Call 000 first if anyone is in immediate danger.
Some trees only need selected branches pruned for clearance, balance or light. Others may need controlled height or width reduction, and removal is considered when the tree cannot reasonably be retained. Send a few photos or arrange a free assessment and we will explain the most suitable option before quoting.
