Tree Removal
Our tree removal service safely and efficiently handles dead, storm-damaged, or hazardous trees using industry-approved techniques. We specialise in confined-space removals and high-risk operations near powerlines, ensuring minimal disruption. Full site cleanup and green waste disposal are included, with equipment capable of managing trees of all sizes across residential and commercial properties.
Stump Grinding
Stump grinding eliminates trip hazards and prepares sites for landscaping by removing stumps below ground level. We use modern machinery to disrupt root systems and prevent regrowth, servicing all tree types. The process includes debris cleanup, leaving outdoor spaces safe and visually appealing for residential and commercial clients.
Arborist Reports
We provide detailed arborist reports for council permits and development compliance, including tree impact assessments and vegetation management plans. Our qualified arborists conduct on-site consultations, TPZ supervision, and post-work documentation, ensuring adherence to environmental regulations and council requirements for both private and public projects.
Emergency Tree Removal
Available 24/7, our emergency tree removal service addresses fallen or unstable trees posing immediate risks. The team utilises insulated elevated work platforms and heavy-duty equipment to safely clear debris, collaborating with insurers and local authorities. Rapid response times ensure property safety and minimise further damage during severe weather events.
Pruning
Professional pruning enhances tree health, structure, and aesthetics through crown thinning, deadwood removal, and seasonal shaping. Our arborists use precise techniques to improve airflow, reduce disease risk, and maintain natural growth patterns. Services cater to both mature trees and young specimens requiring formative structural pruning across residential and commercial landscapes.

Matt & his team spent the day on our property taking down and cutting up several old dead and dangerous trees. Their great equipment incl a cherry picker, mulcher and versatile bobcat enabled the crew to complete a hell of a lot safely and cleaned up perfectly. All I have to do now is split the logs and mulch the gardens with the 2 huge piles of wood chips. The 4 guys arrived st 7.30am right on time. Thanks Jason for providing such experienced staff and great equipment. Highly recommend DTS.

Recently had Drouin Tree Services remove 4 large Cypress trees from our suburban back yard! The whole process from a reasonable quote through to the removal and clean up, was a good, stress free and safe experience. Top equipment and a great, professional team. Thank you.
