The Tree Firm

One job that sums up the work: a 25 metre eucalypt sitting directly over the clay sewer pipe on a block somebody was about to build on. Nothing about that tree was going to be solved by turning up with a chainsaw and starting at the bottom. The Tree Firm was set up in Perth by Paul Vickers, we work Perth and Fremantle wide, we are fully insured, and our tree surgeons go through rigorous safety training before they go up anything. On a job like that, the planning matters as much as the cutting.

That is why dangerous trees sit on our list as their own category. A tree that has split, died back or started leaning over a boundary gets worked out on paper before anybody starts an engine. Our hardware runs from the smallest intricate job through to the largest removal, so the access and the size of a tree removal or a tree felling get settled at the quote, not on the morning of the job. Power line clearance is a discipline of its own and we take it on, along with block clearing where an entire lot has to come off.

Where a tree can stay, it usually should. Tree reduction pulls height and spread back in without wrecking the shape of what is left, tree thinning opens a canopy so wind and light move through it, and regular pruning keeps the structure sound from one year to the next. We take on hedging where a screen needs holding to a line, and palm cleans and removals so the dead fronds and the seed come off in our time rather than in a gust of wind.

A removal is not done until the stump has gone, so stump grinding and full stump removal take out whatever is left to mow around or trip over. Everything that comes off a job goes through the chipper and we sell mulch and woodchip from it. What ties the lot together is the no mess guarantee: the site gets left the way we found it, and there are 122 Google reviews standing behind that. We service most areas of Perth, with recent work at Palmyra, Cloverdale and Belmont. Quotes are free and come with a site assessment, so a tree surgeon has actually stood under the tree before you are given a number; and if a storm has already damaged something, ring 0415 900 932 straight away and we will get out, assess it and make the property safe.
