Skilled Trees Services

Skilled Trees Services is a proudly Townsville-owned and operated arboricultural company that has been caring for the region's trees since 2007. The business is led by owner-operator Adam Cozzitorto, a highly skilled AQF Level 5 Consulting Arborist with more than twenty years of industry experience and a former North Queensland Climbing Champion. Based in Stuart, just south of Townsville, the team brings a rare depth of qualifications and hands-on skill to every job, from a single backyard tree through to large-scale works for councils and government agencies.

Skilled Trees Services offers the full spectrum of tree care and maintenance. This includes expert tree pruning, shaping and deadwooding carried out to the Australian Standard AS 4373, along with tree health assessments and treatments to keep established trees in good condition. When a tree can no longer be saved, the team provides safe tree removal and thorough stump grinding, leaving the site clean and ready to move on.

Where the business truly stands apart is in its high-access specialist works, using elevated work platforms from 15 to 23 metres and advanced rope-and-harness climbing to reach trees others cannot safely tackle. The company also handles broader vegetation and land management, including firebreaks and access-track maintenance, as well as arborist consulting and assessments for planning and development. Recycled mulch sales and delivery round out the offering.

Professionalism and safety underpin everything the team does. Skilled Trees Services is made up of qualified members of the Queensland Arboricultural Association and the International Society of Arboriculture, and every arborist is trained to Adam's own high professional standard. The company carries comprehensive public liability and WorkCover insurance and runs specialised equipment for complex, high-risk tree work, giving councils, government agencies, commercial clients and homeowners alike genuine peace of mind.

Operating across Townsville, Stuart and the wider North Queensland region, the team is also on hand for emergency storm-damage response when the weather turns and trees come down.
