Services
Tree Removal
Professional tree removal services for residential and commercial properties. Our AQF Level 5 certified arborists assess each tree individually to determine the safest removal method. We use specialist equipment and techniques to dismantle trees in confined spaces while minimising environmental impact. All work complies with Australian safety standards and local council regulations.
Arborist Reports
Comprehensive tree health and condition reports for development applications. Our assessments evaluate species, age, structural integrity, and environmental factors. Reports include detailed recommendations for preservation or removal, meeting council requirements for permit applications and construction projects.
Tree Pruning
Expert pruning services following Australian Standard AS4373/2007. We perform crown thinning, reduction pruning, and deadwood removal to improve tree health and appearance. Our techniques enhance structural integrity while maintaining natural growth patterns and minimising stress to the tree.
Root Investigations
Detailed root system analysis using air spading and non-invasive techniques. We create accurate root maps to establish protection zones for construction projects. Our assessments identify potential issues like root rot or soil compaction while providing mitigation strategies to preserve tree health.

Outstanding!
Antony was on time, got back to me when he said he would and cleaned up after the job. He and his team were so positive and the work they did was first class. I would highly recommend Antony and Sydney Arborist.

We had Antony from Sydney Arborist to do a difficult tree removal that was hanging over the house - they used a crane to get rid of it - great team - tidied up after themselves and was a fair price
