AKR Tree Services

Two to four hours is what we aim for when a tree has turned genuinely dangerous, because a limb sitting on a roof at two in the morning is not a booking, it is a situation. AKR Tree Services is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for urgent tree work and storm damage right across Melbourne.

That target is only honest because of where we sit. We work out of Burnside in Melbourne's west and keep to roughly a thirty kilometre radius of it, which is what lets us give a number in hours rather than days. During business hours a quote request gets a reply inside about two hours, and the quote itself is free with nothing attached to it. We are fully licensed with the Victorian Building Authority, the crew has better than ten years behind it, and we hold comprehensive public liability insurance which we will send you on request.

The work runs from the ordinary to the awkward. We handle tree removal on anything from a straightforward garden tree through to dangerous and storm damaged trees that have to be dismantled piece by piece beside a house or a power line, and every removal ends with a complete site cleanup, so you are not left picking sawdust out of the garden bed a week later. Our tree pruning and trimming takes in health and safety pruning, canopy management and seasonal maintenance, keeping growth clear of roofs and gutters and getting the deadwood out before it drops on something, and we do hedge trimming with it. With stump grinding we take out the stump and the roots and cart the debris away, so the ground is ready to be lawned or replanted straight after. Our arborist services are there for the trees that want a qualified look and a considered opinion before anyone reaches for a saw, whether that is a health question, a safety question, or a decision about whether a tree stays or goes.

Thirty kilometres from Burnside takes in most of the west: Keilor, Keilor Downs, Taylors Lakes, Sydenham, St Albans, Deer Park, Caroline Springs, Sunshine, Footscray, Williamstown and Altona, and we get across town to Toorak, Camberwell and Burwood as well. Ring 0403 349 025 at any hour of any day, tell us what the tree has done, and we will price it for you for nothing.
