A&P Tree Services

A&P Tree Services is a Macedon Ranges tree business run by arborist Anthony De Fazio, working out of Lancefield. Anthony and the team are fully insured and carry out their work in line with the Australian Standards, taking on jobs across the ranges from Lancefield through to Castlemaine. The emphasis is on doing the job safely and getting the right outcome for the tree, whether that means removing it or keeping it in good shape, and every job starts with a free on-site quote.

Tree removal is called for when a tree has developed problems such as trunk damage, dead branches, root damage, rot or fungus, or has started leaning and become unstable. Where a tree sits in a tight spot, the team uses rope and harness climbing to access and dismantle it from above, and offers confined space tree removal for trees hemmed in by buildings, fences and neighbouring gardens where there is no room to simply drop it.

Tree pruning covers formative pruning for young trees, crown thinning and crown lifting, remedial and selective pruning, and deadwooding to take out dead, diseased, damaged or structurally unsound branches. The work is done to the Australian Standards, so a tree is left healthier and better balanced rather than just cut back, which matters for the established gardens and rural plantings across the ranges.

Once a tree is gone, stump removal clears out what is left in the ground so the space can be reused. Less commonly for a tree service, A&P also handles tree planting and transplanting, putting new trees in or shifting established ones, which suits property owners reshaping a garden rather than simply clearing it.

The business is based in Lancefield and covers the wider Macedon Ranges, taking in Woodend, Kyneton, Gisborne, Macedon, Romsey, Trentham and Castlemaine. Whether it is a single overgrown tree by the house or ongoing care for a rural block, the work is qualified, insured and carried out by an arborist rather than a general labourer.
