Trees Down Under removes trees close to Cherrybrook pools using its own crane fleet, so timber is lifted out rather than dropped. Book a free tree inspection and ask about a same-day quote from a Hills District crew.
A dropped limb or trunk section near a pool can damage things that are costly to fix. In a standard backyard, timber lands on lawn. Beside a pool, it can land on the shell, coping, tiles and surrounding paving.
A pool-side tree puts several features in the line of fall at once. Before any cutting starts, the removal plan has to account for these:
Cutting a tree is the easy part. Deciding where every piece goes is what protects the pool. Felling in one direction seldom works when water, fencing and paving surround the trunk, and rough handling of heavy sections risks the shell and the surrounds. That is why pool-side jobs call for controlled removal, planned from the first cut to the last.
Trees Down Under brings a large tree removal truck with a crane to the street outside the house. The crane reaches over the roofline, yard and pool, so the crew never needs to drag heavy timber across paving or through fencing.
The crane takes the tree out in controlled stages:
The crane belongs to Trees Down Under, so there is no extra fee for it and no third-party hire to coordinate. The crew is licensed, fully insured and Cm3 certified, with more than 20 years of experience across the Hills District.
Every job gets the same care, whether it’s a backyard pruning or a crane-assisted removal. Near a pool, that means nothing gets dropped.

On the day, the crew sets up the crane truck on the street outside the property, checks the site, and removes the tree in lifted sections. Nothing is dropped over the pool.
Site check and set-up. The arborists walk the yard, confirm the cut plan, and agree where the truck will sit. Before any cutting starts, they protect the pool area, including fencing and paving.
Sectional cut and lift. Each section is secured to the crane, cut free, and lifted clear over the pool and house to the street.
Clean-up. Timber and green waste are cleared, and the yard is left tidy. Full site clean-up is part of the job.
Cherrybrook is part of the area Trees Down Under covers, along with neighbouring Hills District suburbs such as Westleigh, Kenthurst and Beecroft.
The process starts with a free tree inspection, followed by a same-day quote where possible. Before any removal, the team gives council permit guidance, including whether an arborist report is needed. Rules vary by council and by tree, so check the Hills Shire Council requirements for your address. Some Cherrybrook properties fall under Hornsby Shire Council instead, so it is worth confirming which applies to you.
Once approvals are sorted, the crane-assisted removal is scheduled. For storm damage or a tree that has become unsafe, the 24/7 emergency line is on 0475 463 597.
If your property needs more than this job, Trees Down Under covers the related work across Cherrybrook and the Hills District.
