Tree Removal Across the Northern Beaches
What you can expect when you work with us
Tree removal Northern Beaches is our most requested service. Whether you need a small ornamental tree removed in Manly, a large eucalyptus taken down in Frenchs Forest, or a dead tree safely felled in Dee Why, our qualified arborists handle tree removals of all sizes — from small backyard trees to large, complex removals over 30 metres near buildings and power lines. Tree removal starts from $500 with complete site cleanup included in every quote.
With over 30 years of experience serving the Northern Beaches since 1995, we understand the unique challenges of tree removal in suburban settings. Every arborist on our team holds a minimum Certificate III in Arboriculture (AQF Level 3), with senior consulting arborists qualified to AQF Level 5. We are members of Arboriculture Australia and carry $20 million in public liability insurance. Our AQF Level 5 arborists also prepare council-ready arborist reports for Northern Beaches Council tree removal applications.
Every tree removal begins with a thorough on-site assessment by our qualified arborists. We evaluate the safest removal method — climbing with sectional dismantling, crane-assisted removal for large trees, or straight felling where space allows. From mature Sydney Red Gums and Angophoras in Belrose to Norfolk Pines in Manly and invasive Camphor Laurels in Mona Vale, we have the specialist equipment and expertise for any species. During storm season (October to March), our 24/7 emergency response team is available for urgent tree removals across all 48 Northern Beaches suburbs.

Common Scenarios
When You Need Tree Removal
Tree removal is a significant decision. Here are the most common situations where removal is the best option for Northern Beaches property owners — and where our 30+ years of local experience helps guide the right approach.
The tree is dead, dying, or severely diseased beyond treatment
Storm damage has left the tree structurally compromised
The tree poses a risk to your home, neighbouring properties, or power lines
Root systems are damaging foundations, driveways, or underground pipes
You're preparing land for a new build, extension, or pool installation
The tree has outgrown its space and cannot be adequately managed by pruning
Council has approved removal as part of a development application
The tree is an invasive species such as a Camphor Laurel or Coral Tree
Service Features
Tree Removal Capabilities
Specialist tree removal techniques and equipment for every situation
Sectional Dismantling
Our tight-access specialist technique for removing trees in confined spaces across suburbs like Manly, Balgowlah, and Freshwater. Each section is carefully lowered with ropes and rigging, protecting nearby structures, fences, and gardens.
Crane-Assisted Removal
For large trees over 20 metres — common in Frenchs Forest, Belrose, and Terrey Hills — crane-assisted removal is the safest and most efficient method. We coordinate crane logistics and rigging to lift entire sections clear of your property.
Root Ball Removal & Site Prep
Complete root ball excavation and site preparation for construction or landscaping projects. We remove the entire root system and leave the site graded and ready for your next stage.
Hazardous Tree Removal
Specialist removal of storm-damaged, dead, and dangerously leaning trees — particularly during storm season (October to March). Our crew assesses structural integrity and uses controlled techniques to bring down compromised trees safely.
Our Process
What to Expect — Tree Removal
Here's exactly what happens when you book a tree removal with our team, from first contact to final cleanup.
1
Initial Phone Consultation
Call us or submit a quote request. We'll ask about the tree size, species if known, access, and any urgency. For straightforward jobs, we can often provide a ballpark estimate over the phone.
2
On-Site Assessment
Our qualified arborist (minimum Certificate III in Arboriculture) visits your property to assess the tree, check for hazards, evaluate access, and determine the safest removal method. We'll discuss Northern Beaches Council permit requirements and provide a detailed written quote.
3
Council Permit Application
If required, we prepare and submit the council application including an arborist report. We handle all communication with Northern Beaches Council and keep you updated on progress.
4
Pre-Work Preparation
Before work begins, we protect gardens, structures, and surfaces. Drop zones are established and work areas cordoned off for safety.
5
Tree Removal
Using the method suited to your tree—climbing with sectional dismantling, crane-assisted removal, or straight fell—our crew removes the tree piece by piece with full safety controls.
6
Cleanup & Completion
All branches, timber, and debris are removed or processed. The site is raked clean and any garden areas are restored. Optional stump grinding can be completed the same day.
