    We can thoroughly recommend this business to everyone. The initial communication process was excellent and Luke and the team were punctual, polite and very professional, right down to a flawless clean-up at the end. The result is just what we wanted and at a reasonable price.

    Luke and Scott came up to our eco-certified holiday rental property in Bungwahl (Seal Rocks) to create some nesting hollows for possums and gliders. They were great to work with in the lead up to and on the day. They worked hard to get as many hollows done as possible for me. Would absolutely recommend.

Arborist costs & guides

Frequently asked questions

How much do arborists typically charge?
Arborist costs vary widely depending on the type and scale of work. Factors such as tree size and species, site access, whether removal and stump grinding are needed, required equipment and disposal all affect the total. Most quotes separate a call-out component from labour and materials, and after-hours or emergency jobs generally attract higher rates. The live pricing on this page shows current estimates for different job types.
Do arborists charge call-out fees?
Many arborists charge a call-out fee to attend and assess the job, which is usually separate from labour and materials. That fee typically covers travel and the initial site inspection, and smaller or remote jobs may be subject to a minimum charge. It's worth confirming whether a call-out fee is included in any quote you receive.
When do arborists need a licence?
Arborists often need registration or specific contractor credentials for higher-risk, large-scale or regulated tree work. Where the scope overlaps with regulated building or contractor work, providers should hold a valid state contractor or builder credential and comply with local council permit requirements for protected trees. For higher‑risk tasks, look for evidence of public liability insurance, documented work-at-heights controls and SWMS.
