Services
Tree services we arrange across the Central Coast
Tree lopping
Height and spread taken off a tree that has outgrown the yard, cut back to branches that can carry the regrowth.
Taken down in sections where there is no room to drop it, every piece lowered clear of the roof and the fence.

Questions
Asked before anything is booked
Do I need the council's permission to cut back a tree?
Possibly, because on the Central Coast council permission may be required to prune or remove trees. Light pruning, branches over the roof, trees close to the house and species on the council's undesirable list are among the exemptions, and the permits page sets them out.
Who does the work?
An independent tree contractor. They look at the tree, quote the job and do it, and your agreement is with them. This site takes enquiries and passes them on; nobody here climbs trees.
Can the stump stay?
Yes. Cutting it low and leaving it costs less than grinding it out, and plenty of people choose that. The quote can price both so you can decide.
Is lopping the right word for what my tree needs?
People use it for anything from a light trim to taking half the tree away, so it covers a lot. What matters is what gets written on the quote: which limbs, cut back to where, and what happens to the timber.
