Arborist in Scarborough

Tree removal, pruning, stump grinding and emergency response for Scarborough and the surrounding coastal and north-west. Free fixed quotes, $20 million insured, and the site left better than we found it.

Tree work in Scarborough, specifically

Scarborough gets the full coastal treatment. Salt-laden onshore wind almost every afternoon, limestone soils and a lot of Norfolk pines and tuarts holding on in exposed positions.

Salt burn, wind shear and one-sided canopies are the pattern. Balanced reduction work here does more for a tree's survival than anything else we can do.

What we get called out for here

  • Salt and wind damage rehabilitation
  • Norfolk Island pine maintenance
  • Apartment and short-stay property work
  • Emergency response along the coastal strip

Our services in Scarborough

Whatever the tree is doing, one crew handles it end to end. No subcontracting the difficult part and no waiting on someone else's calendar.

Tree removal

Sectional dismantling where there is no drop zone, crane and EWP access where climbing is not safe, and the stump ground out in the same visit if you want it gone. More on removals.

Pruning and lopping

Crown reduction, thinning, lifting and deadwooding, every cut made to Australian Standard AS 4373. We do not top trees, in Scarborough or anywhere else. More on pruning.

Stump grinding

Ground 300mm below grade with surface roots chased, using narrow-access machines that fit a standard side gate. More on stump grinding.

24/7 emergency response

Storm damage, trees on roofs and blocked driveways, answered by a person and attended by a crew. More on emergencies.

Why Scarborough calls us

We have been on Perth trees since 2008. We hold $20 million public liability, our climbers are Certificate III qualified, and every quote is fixed in writing before anything starts. When we leave, the site is raked, blown down and walked through with you.

Good to know

Scarborough, your questions.

How much does tree removal cost in Scarborough?

Most residential removals in Scarborough land between $450 and $3,500 depending on height, access and what sits underneath. We quote fixed prices in writing after looking at the actual tree, never hourly, and the quote is free.

Do I need council approval to remove a tree in Scarborough?

It depends on your local government area and the species. We check the relevant council's requirements before quoting and tell you straight whether an application is needed. Where a formal consulting arborist report is required, we will say so and point you to someone who writes them.

How fast can you get to Scarborough in an emergency?

We target under an hour anywhere in the Perth metro, 24 hours a day. On a heavy storm night we triage by risk and give you an honest ETA rather than an optimistic one.

Are you insured to work in Scarborough?

Yes. $20 million public liability, full workers compensation and professional indemnity, with certificates of currency emailed on request. Strata managers and councils ask for these regularly and we have them ready.

Free quote in Scarborough, usually same day.

An arborist comes out, looks at the actual tree, and gives you a fixed price. No fee, no obligation, and an honest answer about whether it needs doing at all.
