Professional Arborist Services Across the Northern Rivers

Got a Tree That Needs a Little TLC?

Your trees are a living asset that naturally enhance your aesthetic, shaded zones and increase your property’s value. But sometimes they need a bit more than just water and sunshine. Worried about a tree’s health? Unsure how to prune it properly? Or maybe you need expert advice on managing risks or understanding council rules? That’s where a certified arborist steps in. 

We are AQF3-qualified arborists, ready to provide the expert care and advice your trees need to thrive safely and look their leafy best.

Why Expert Arborist Care Matters

Just like you’d see a doctor when you’re unwell, trees sometimes need a specialist! Ignoring signs of disease, incorrect pruning, or failing to assess risks can lead to big problems. Tree decay or disease can spread, potentially making the tree unstable. Incorrect pruning can cause lasting damage or even shorten the tree’s life. And not understanding council laws around protected trees can lead to fines. 
Don’t let your trees get into a sticky situation — let us help them flourish! Summerland Tree Services’ certified arborists step in to provide the knowledge and skills needed to keep your trees healthy, safe and compliant with local regulations.

Tim was fabulous to deal with. Removed a huge cocos palm, thinned out numerous golden canes, boundary hedging near an acre block neatly and accurately and got rid of stumps. Hard working and cleans up afterwards. Very cost efficient. Thank you Tim & staff.
