Our services

What we do

Practical, careful tree work for Wellington homes, lifestyle blocks and small commercial sites.

How we work

Free site visit, free written quote, no obligation

Tree work is full of variables. The honest way to quote it is to come and look, at the tree, the access, what's underneath. We do that at no cost, with no obligation to use us afterwards.

Free on-site visits

We come to you. Walk the site, look at the tree, talk through options. No deposit, no commitment.

Free, written quotes

Itemised on the page, access, removal, chipping, disposal. No "from $X" pricing, no surprises later.

Council-protected trees

If there's a genuine need to remove a protected or Notable Tree, we'll put together the case and approach council on your behalf to argue for consent.

How it works

Four steps from enquiry to cleanup

1

Send the form

Tell us about the tree(s) and upload a photo or two, takes about a minute.

2

Free site visit

Frequently asked

The questions we get most

Do you charge for the initial quote?
No. Our site visits and written quotes are free, and they come with no obligation to use us afterwards.
What areas do you cover?
Wellington City, the Hutt Valley (Lower & Upper Hutt), Porirua and the surrounding suburbs. If you're outside that zone, get in touch and we'll let you know whether we can help.
When can I get hold of you?
Monday to Saturday, 7am to 5pm. Phone, email or the quote form, whichever's easiest.
What if my tree is protected by council?
If there's a genuine reason to remove a protected or Notable Tree, safety, structural, irretrievable health, we can pull together the case and approach council on your behalf to argue for consent. The final decision rests with the council, but we'll give the application its best chance.
How much does tree work cost?
There's no flat rate, cost depends on height, species, access, proximity to buildings and powerlines, and what happens to the wood. That's why we come out for a free site visit before quoting.
What happens to the wood and waste?
By default we chip and remove all green waste. We can leave firewood-sized rounds stacked on site if you want them, or arrange a mulch drop instead of disposal.
Can you grind stumps below ground?
Yes, standard grind is 200–300mm below grade, deep enough to replant or lay turf. We can grind deeper for paving, decking or building foundations.
