How quickly can you respond to tree emergencies?

Accepted Answer

For genuine tree emergencies, our typical response time is within 2 hours, 24/7.

Question 3

Question 4

What constitutes a tree emergency?

Accepted Answer

Tree emergencies include trees fallen on buildings, vehicles, or power lines; trees blocking driveways, roads, or emergency access; large hanging branches threatening to fall; dangerously leaning trees after storms; trees with sudden structural splits; and trees destabilised by flooding. Coastal properties are particularly susceptible during storms, high winds, and intense rainfall. Call our 24/7 hotline for immediate emergency assessment.

Question 5

Do you need council approval for emergency tree work?

Accepted Answer

Council regulations allow emergency tree work without prior approval when trees pose immediate serious risk to safety. However, documentation is required: clear photographs before work begins, emergency work documentation, and retrospective notification to council within 14 days. Our emergency arborists handle this entire documentation process including photographs, retrospective applications, and arborist statements confirming the emergency nature of work.

Question 6

Can you remove trees fallen on houses?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we specialise in safely removing trees fallen on homes using specialised emergency equipment and techniques. Our emergency team includes crane operators and technical rigging specialists who carefully dismantle trees from buildings using controlled sectional techniques. We coordinate with emergency services, arrange emergency tarpaulins, work directly with insurance companies, and provide detailed documentation for claims.
