Aussie Tree Services

Aussie Tree Services has been caring for trees around Lake Macquarie and the Hunter since 2003, providing a superior quality tree management service to residential land owners, the business and commercial sector, and state and local government. Managing director and resident arborist Dane Pickering has over 21 years in the industry, and the business has grown to be highly competitive yet ethical and safe. All pruning is carried out in accordance with the Code of Practice for the Amenity Tree Industry, the Australian Standard AS4373:2007, and the relevant local council's Tree Preservation Order, so the work stands up to scrutiny as well as it stands up in the tree.

Tree pruning is treated as the specialist task it is, whether the job is powerline clearing, building clearance, the removal of deadwood, selectively pruning out unwanted branches, taking off dangerous or diseased limbs, or remedial work after storm damage. Tree removal covers dead, dying, diseased and dangerous trees, including the difficult ones in confined spaces and hard to access positions, with no job too big or small. Stump grinding follows, reaching stumps in awkward corners of a yard, whether as part of a removal or an old stump that has been an eyesore for years.

Emergency tree care means the team is a phone call away 24 hours a day. After a storm brings a branch or a whole tree down, their Emergency Tree Response can assess the damage, make the site safe, and work out whether there are further problems ahead. Block clearing is a one stop shop for owners with a development application through council, taking out the trees in the building envelope, excavating the stumps and removing all the tree and timber waste for recycling. Cabling and bracing can save a structurally damaged tree that would otherwise be felled, using non invasive systems such as Cobra that avoid girdling the branch, with annual inspections and a 100% success rate in securing trees long term.

Consultation covers health and safety assessments, building site tree management, development impact assessments and written reporting for corporate and council purposes, or simply a low cost onsite chat about a tree. Plant health care spots the problems an untrained eye misses, with a full report on the condition of the trees and the site, tailored to council requirements if removal turns out to be the only option. The team also handles tree planting with properly selected stock, and transplanting of shrubs, cycads and large palms with a 100% success rate to date. Mulch supply is supplied and spread to bring a tired garden back to life, and firewood supply offers split, seasoned, sustainable timber sold to the standards of the Firewood Association of Australia.
