Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about tree care in Port Stephens? We’re here to help!

Here are answers to some of our most frequently asked questions:

Can I be fined for cutting down a tree in my own backyard?

Yes. In NSW, there are strict regulations around tree removal. Even on your own property, you may need council approval before removing certain trees. Our arborists can help you navigate these regulations and avoid hefty fines.

I'm worried about a large tree near my house.
Could it fall during a storm?

Our arborists can conduct a tree risk assessment to determine the health and stability of your trees. We’ll identify any potential hazards and recommend preventative measures, such as pruning or cabling, to reduce the risk of damage during storms

My neighbour's tree is hanging over my fence.
What can I do?

You have the right to trim branches that overhang your property, but only up to the boundary line. It’s always best to discuss the issue with your neighbour first. If the tree poses a safety risk, our arborists can assess the situation and provide professional advice and assistance.

How can I tell if my tree is diseased or dying?

Look out for signs like dead branches, discoloured leaves, fungal growth or leaning. Our arborists can diagnose the problem and recommend treatment options or safe removal if necessary.

We're planning a new development. Can you
help with the tree management and council
approvals?

Absolutely! We have extensive experience working with developers on projects of all sizes. Our services include tree surveys, impact assessments, council liaison and sustainable land-clearing solutions.
