In most cases, home and contents insurance policies cover emergency tree removal when a fallen tree has damaged a structure or poses an immediate risk. Trees Down Under is fully licensed and insured, so your insurer can verify credentials quickly. Contact your insurer as soon as it is safe to do so, and keep photos of the damage before any work begins.
Do I Need a Council Permit for Emergency Removal?
Permit requirements vary by council and tree species, even in urgent situations. Trees Down Under works with every local council across Sydney, so the team can advise whether a permit applies and handle the relevant paperwork where possible.
Permits don’t have to slow things down – we know what each council requires and we work through it with you.
