Tree check

Should you be worried about that tree?

Four quick questions. It won't replace a proper look, but it will tell you how soon you should get one.

  1. 1Is it leaning more than it used to?
  2. 2Any large dead branches overhead?
  3. 3Cracks, mushrooms or soft wood near the base?
  4. 4What would it land on?

What we'd suggest

Answer all four to see.

Your answers stay on this page.

A rough guide, not an inspection. If a tree is moving, cracking or touching power lines, keep clear and call.

How it works

From first call to finished, in four steps.

No guesswork about what happens next. You'll know who's coming, when, and what it costs before anything starts.

  1. 01

    Free look

    An arborist walks the site with you, looks at the tree properly and talks through the options.

  2. 02

    Written quote

    What we'll cut, how, what it costs and whether you need a council permit. Usually within a day.

  3. 03

    The work

    Qualified climbers, the right gear for the access, and your neighbours told before we start.

  4. 04

    Clean-up

    Raked, blown and swept. Mulch left in a pile where you want it, or gone with us.

Questions

Good questions, straight answers.

Do I need a permit to remove my tree?

Often, yes. Many councils in the north-east protect trees by size or species, and vegetation overlays cover a lot of Eltham and Warrandyte. We check, and we lodge the application for you.

Can you work if there's no side access?

Usually. Our climbers lower everything on ropes, and our narrow grinders fit through a standard garden gate.

Will you take the wood away?

Yes, or leave it. Branches are chipped into mulch on site; trunks can be cut into firewood rounds if you'd like them.
