Arborist Marcus

Don't tip it, chip it. It is the line we have worked to at Arborist Marcus since the business started more than 25 years ago, and it is why what comes off your place goes through the chipper and back out as garden mulch instead of into landfill. We sell the mulch on at budget prices and we donate a fair bit of it too.

We run out of Burwood and service Melbourne from there, with qualified arborists, tree climbers and skilled tree technicians on the crew. We hold full public liability insurance and full critical injury insurance, which matters on the jobs where somebody is up in the canopy with a saw and a rope.

Tree cutting and felling covers the straightforward drops and the ones where there is no room to drop anything, and we take out dangerous or dead limbs before they come down on their own. Branch lopping brings an overgrown canopy back to a sensible size. Where a stump is sitting in a tight corner or a confined space that a big machine will never reach, we have the gear and the patience for stump removal anyway.

On the maintenance side there is tree pruning, hedge trimming and crown reduction, along with tree shaping when the job is as much about how the tree looks in the garden as how it grows. We will clean out your gutters while the ladders are up. Good timber does not always deserve the chipper, so we also run a timber milling and furniture service and turn the better logs into something you can keep.

Storm damage, flood damage, fires and other natural disasters are what our 24 hour, 7 day emergency service is there for, and you can reach us on it any hour of any day. Our work is mainly across Melbourne's eastern suburbs and sometimes beyond, taking in Box Hill North, Blackburn South, Nunawading, Surrey Hills, Mitcham, Burwood East, Forest Hill, Mont Albert North, Balwyn North, Canterbury and Templestowe Lower.

Beyond the tree work we have a team of 70 on call for lawn mowing, rubbish removal, landscaping, paving and mulch delivered at budget prices, so a tidy up around the tree job is rarely a problem. Quotes are free, and the easiest way to start is a call or a text with a photo of the tree. Get in touch and we will come out and look at it.
