John's Tree Services North Shore

More than 80 North Shore suburbs are on our run sheet, and John's Tree Services North Shore has been working them out of Ryde since 1982. Three generations of North Shore arborists stand behind the name. Every arborist on the crew is Certificate III trained, and we carry $20 million in public liability along with professional indemnity cover, so the paperwork is sorted before anybody starts a saw.

On a removal, the gear is what decides whether the job goes smoothly or badly. We bring a crane in for assisted lifting when a section has to come out over a roof, a pool or a fence line, and everything that comes down goes through the chipper on site, so you are not left with a heap of green waste to deal with afterwards. Where a tree is staying put, we handle the tree pruning and tree lopping that keeps it clear of the gutters and the powerlines, then take the last of it out of the ground with stump grinding.

Bigger sites get the same treatment. If a block has been left long enough that you cannot walk through it, our land clearing crew will bring it back to something you can build on or mow, and we plan the sequence so the machinery is not driving over what you want to keep. Tree removal on tight North Shore blocks, with a neighbour's roof one way and a pool the other, is work we have been doing in these same suburbs for more than forty years.

Our work is council approved, which matters here, because the North Shore councils hold firm tree preservation orders and a protected tree cannot simply come out because it is dropping leaves in the gutter. We will tell you where your tree stands before we quote it, and we will tell you honestly when the answer is that it should stay.

If a limb splits out overnight or a tree drops across your driveway, our 24/7 emergency response crew is typically with you inside one to two hours. We will make the site safe, get the weight off whatever it has landed on and clear the debris, whatever the hour.

From Ryde we reach Chatswood, Mosman, Lane Cove, Pymble, Killara, Wahroonga, Hornsby, Asquith, Beecroft, Gladesville, Meadowbank, Northwood and Wollstonecraft. Our hours are Monday to Friday, 7am to 5pm, and Saturday mornings from 7am to 1pm, with the emergency line open around the clock on top of that. Call 0414 355 510 or email us and we will come out and price the job.
