Tree care · The Hills
Confused about what you can and cannot remove? We help you navigate council tree rules.
The Hills Shire and Hornsby councils both protect trees through their planning controls. Working out what needs approval, and getting it, can be the trickiest part of any tree job.
We help property owners across the Hills and Hornsby work through council tree permits and tree preservation requirements. That means advising whether your tree is protected, what exemptions might apply, and preparing the arborist report councils often ask for.
Every council is a little different, and the rules change. We keep across them so you do not have to, and we line the job up so that once approval comes through, the tree work is ready to go.
Not sure exactly what you need? That is what we are here for. Send a photo or give us a call and we will point you the right way.
How it works
Call us or text a photo of the tree with your suburb. We will give you a quote, often the same day.
For larger jobs we visit, confirm scope and access, and check any council requirements.
Our qualified arborists complete the job to Australian Standard AS 4373, fully insured to $20M.
We chip the branches, cart everything away and leave your property clean and tidy.

View serviceGood to know
It varies by council and is usually based on height, trunk size and species, with some exempt species and situations. We can check whether your specific tree is protected.
We can prepare the arborist report and guide you through what council needs. The application itself is usually lodged by the property owner, and we make that as simple as possible.
Dangerous trees are often treated differently. A documented risk assessment can support a faster approval, and in genuine emergencies different rules can apply. Talk to us and we will advise.
