T.L.C Tree Services

T.L.C Tree Services trades as Timber Loving Care, which tells you most of what you need to know about how they pitch themselves. It is a local, family owned crew working out of Inverell, established in 2023, with Cert III qualified arborists on every job and $20 million in public liability cover behind them. Customers writing reviews on the site keep naming Sam, who turns up to quote and again to do the work.

Tree trimming is crown thinning, deadwooding and shaping, mostly to keep a canopy balanced and off the roof and gutters. Tree removal runs to safe sectional felling and full removals, including tight access blocks and hazardous trees close to houses and powerlines. Stump grinding goes below grade so the lawn comes back without the trip hazard, the regrowth or the pests that move into a leftover stump.

The part of the business that separates them from a straight cutting crew is tree health inspection and treatment. They will check a tree for disease, pests and stress and treat it rather than reach for the saw first, on the stated principle that they would rather save a tree than fell it. Tree injections put treatment for pests, disease or nutrient deficiency straight into the trunk, so there is no spray drift across the garden or the neighbours.

Mulching is done on site: the green waste goes through the chipper and you can keep the mulch for the garden or have it carted away. Full clean-up and green waste removal is part of the job rather than an extra line on the invoice, and quotes are free, written, and given after someone has actually stood in front of the tree.

Storm work is where the phone runs hottest. Storm response is on call 24/7 for fallen limbs, split trunks and trees down on structures, which in this part of the state is not a hypothetical. The patch covers Inverell, Moree, Armidale, Glen Innes, Guyra, Tenterfield, Narrabri, Warialda, Bingara, Bundarra, Barraba, Ashford, Texas and the wider New England, and they are open about travelling further for the right job. General hours are 7am to 5pm, seven days.
