Chandler's Tree Service

Chandler's Tree Service has been cutting, climbing and clearing around Tamworth since 1998. It is a local, family owned business, and after more than twenty years on the job the crew has seen most of what the New England and North West can do to a tree. Quotes are free and obligation free, and the company also offers free consultations if you want a professional opinion before you commit to anything.

The bulk of the work is tree removal. The company is blunt about it: taking a tree down is risky, and it wants fully qualified professionals with the right safety equipment doing the job rather than someone with a chainsaw and a ladder. Where a tree cannot simply be dropped in one piece, the team turns to climbing. That is how the awkward jobs get done, in tight backyards, over roofs, and on limbs that have to come out one at a time.

Once the tree is on the ground, stump removal and stump grinding finish it off. Purpose built equipment takes the stump right down so the ground can be levelled again for replanting or for building on. For the trees that are staying, there is pruning, tree trimming, crown lifting, thinning and deadwooding. That is the routine maintenance that keeps a mature tree safe where it overhangs a house, a driveway or a fence line, and it is usually a great deal cheaper than dealing with the limb after it has come down on its own.

Chandler's runs its own chippers, mulchers, grinders and cranes, which is what lets it take on the bigger removals rather than referring them elsewhere. It also handles insurance work, and provides consultancy and reporting for the jobs where a tree needs a written assessment rather than a chainsaw. An after hours service is available where necessary, so a split limb or storm damage does not have to sit there until Monday morning.

The business is based in Tamworth and travels across the surrounding district, taking work in Gunnedah, Quirindi, Narrabri and Armidale. Customer reviews come back to the same handful of points: the crew turns up when it said it would, gets through the work quickly, and leaves the site tidy rather than leaving a pile of branches on the nature strip. For residential blocks, rural properties and commercial sites alike, it is a straightforward local operation with the gear and the years behind it.
