O'Briens Tree Services

Ask us to lop a tree and we will gently talk you out of the word. Lopping is what customers call it; a qualified tree surgeon never would, because what it does to a tree is not what you are hoping to pay for. O'Briens Tree Services has been a family run business in Canberra since 2006, our arborists are qualified for the work they do, we bring insurance to the job as well as the gear, and we hold a 5.0 rating across 31 Google reviews. Brett takes the quote calls himself.

We are qualified to carry out tree removal in Canberra, including the dead and dangerous ones that have stopped being anybody's idea of a garden feature. No job is too large or too small for us, and where a whole block needs opening up we have the right equipment to do site clearing quickly and at a cost that makes sense, with a quotation before we start.

ACT homeowners are required by legislation to keep trees and vegetation clear of the overhead powerlines on their property, and we run an ActewAGL powerline clearing service for exactly that. It is accredited work, so it is not something to hand to a general garden crew or to have a go at yourself with a pole saw.

For the trees you are keeping, our pruning and trimming is done the way the standard intends, and tree thinning and canopy lightening takes weight and wind load out of a heavy crown without wrecking its shape. We also give tree assessments and advice, because trees are the largest thing in most home landscapes and the decision to keep or remove one is worth making on information. Hedge trimming is work we take real pride in, and every hedge on the round gets the same attention.

What comes off the job does not go to waste. We chip and process the trees and vegetation we take off your site, mulching puts a layer of good material back around your remaining trees and beds, and our wood splitting service turns the useful timber into firewood you can stack. Stump grinding is there for the leftover stumps, so nothing is sitting in the lawn waiting to catch a mower blade.

Ring our emergency tree service when something has come down and cannot wait until the morning. We cover Canberra and the surrounding country, including Ainslie, Belconnen, Fyshwick, Gungahlin, Kambah, Wanniassa, Weston Creek, Queanbeyan, Gundaroo, Sutton, Murrumbateman, Yass and Wonboyn. Quotes are free. Ring us on 0402 555 828 and we will come and look at it.
