What types of tree services do you offer in Hornsby?
We provide comprehensive tree care services in Hornsby including tree removal, pruning, lopping, canopy thinning, stump grinding, land clearing, mulching, and emergency tree services. Our team is experienced with all native and introduced tree species found in Hornsby's diverse urban and bushland environment.
Does Hornsby Council require permits for tree removal?
Yes, Hornsby Shire Council has specific tree preservation orders designed to protect the area's significant tree canopy. Most trees over a certain size require council approval before removal or major pruning. Our arborists can assist with the application process and advise on council regulations specific to your Hornsby property to ensure full compliance.
How do you handle tree services in Hornsby's bushland interface areas?
Hornsby features extensive bushland areas with many properties situated at the urban-bushland interface. Our arborists provide specialised services for these properties, including strategic pruning for bushfire risk mitigation, management of native vegetation in accordance with council guidelines, and solutions that balance environmental conservation with property protection.
What is your approach to tree management in Hornsby's mixed urban environment?
Hornsby's unique mix of high-density urban areas around the town centre and traditional suburban streets requires flexible approaches to tree management. Our arborists tailor solutions based on specific property contexts, considering factors like space constraints, surrounding infrastructure, and the role of trees in urban cooling and amenity. We work with both residential clients and commercial properties to achieve optimal outcomes.
Can you help with emergency tree services after storms in Hornsby?
Absolutely. Hornsby's elevated position and significant tree coverage make it vulnerable to storm damage. We provide 24/7 emergency tree services with rapid response teams available to assess damage, remove hazardous branches, and perform emergency tree removal when necessary. We prioritise safety while working efficiently to minimise further property damage, and can work with insurance providers when required.
