What we do
How John's handles tree removal.
The team handles small and large tree removals in Pennant Hills, including trees close to roofs, fences, pools, driveways and neighbouring property. Sectional removal can be used when there is little room below.
Across the Upper North Shore, established homes, larger gardens, sloping sites and bushland-edge properties often need careful equipment and debris-removal access. Mature eucalypts and long-established garden trees are common throughout the area.
Common removal jobs include dead or declining trees, storm-damaged trees, trees affecting planned work and trees that can no longer be kept safely in their position. Branches can be chipped and timber cut, kept or removed as agreed.
- Whole-tree removal
- Sectional dismantling
- Debris handling
Hornsby Shire council checks
What to check before the work starts.
Hornsby Shire Council treats light maintenance, substantial pruning, tree removal and vegetation clearing differently. Check the current rule for the address and have any approval in place before regulated work begins.
- Hornsby Shire Council may require approval for tree removal, significant pruning or vegetation clearing. Requirements depend on the tree, property and proposed work.
- Show us how people and equipment can reach the work area.
- Point out roofs, fences, pools, driveways and other structures near the tree.
- Tell us how you want branches, timber or mulch handled afterwards.

Removal may be appropriate when the whole tree is dead, badly damaged, unsuitable for its position or cannot be managed with sensible pruning. The tree and surrounding property need to be considered together.
