Top Notch Tree Management

The weather in the Snowy Mountains turns genuinely wild, and the trees up here become a serious hazard because of it. Top Notch Tree Management is a local Snowy Mountains company working Jindabyne to Cooma and all the surrounding areas from a base at Berridale, for residential and commercial clients alike. Our director Shallum has years of experience in this area and worked in Western Australia, Scotland and England before settling here, honing a climbing arborist's skill set into an owner-operator service. Every tree job is different, so we bring in a diverse team of employees and contractors to suit whatever is standing in front of us.

As much as we love trees, there are plenty of reasons one may have to come out, and when that is the case advanced rigging techniques let us remove any tree regardless of its size or the space around it. Some trees, dead ones among them, can be taken out without council approval, but it is worth checking first. Ring the council, ask whether a preservation order is attached to the tree, and get approval for the work sorted before anyone starts. We are glad to talk that through with you beforehand.

There are many different ways to prune a tree, and we specialise in knowing which of them will enhance the beauty of the tree in your particular space. Our tree pruning uses practices and equipment that leave the health of the tree uncompromised and the shape still worth looking at. Extra large hedges are a specialty, so if you have ever stood beneath a two storey hedge wondering how anyone gets up there, leave that part to us. Stump grinding comes either as part of a removal or as a way of clearing out old stumps, which sit there unsightly and unsafe and can draw termites towards the perimeter of your house, and we take them out big or small.

An unsightly pile of tree debris goes through the chipper under green waste removal, and the mulch either stays to add nutrients, hold water and improve the look of your garden, or leaves with us to be used somewhere else. Onsite tree health assessments give you a proper read on a tree before you decide anything at all. Because of that mountain weather, emergency callouts are a real part of what we do, with our team on call at any hour to take the hazard out and make the site safe enough for you to rest easy. We work Monday to Friday, 7am to 5pm, with public liability cover in place. We cover every aspect of tree work, so if the service you are after is not named here, ring Shallum or send an email and ask about it.
