Frequently asked questions
Do I need council approval to remove a tree?
It depends on your council, overlays and the tree. Rules differ across Bayside, Kingston, Glen Eira, Monash and Frankston areas. We will flag when a permit may apply, but you should confirm with your local council before work proceeds—we cannot guarantee permit outcomes.
How much does tree removal cost?
Price depends on tree size, access, proximity to structures, disposal and whether stump grinding is included. Send photos and your suburb for a free quote—call 0419 370 423 or use our contact form.
Can you remove trees close to fences, roofs or powerlines?
Yes, with planning. We use rigging and sectional dismantling near buildings. Trees touching live powerlines must be made safe by your electricity distributor first—we attend once that hazard is managed.
Do you take away the green waste?
Yes. Branches and timber are chipped on site where practical or removed from the property. We leave driveways and work areas tidy.
Do you grind stumps after tree removal?
Yes. Stump grinding can be bundled with removal so lawns and paving routes are usable again.
Can you help after storm damage?
Yes. We prioritise hazardous hangers and blocked access after severe weather across Bayside and South East Melbourne.
