Really pleased with the job from Trees Down Under, guys were really pleasant and helpful to deal with. Yard and area left so tidy you’d barely know they were there. Price was very reasonable as well. Communication easy and prompt. Will definitely use them again.
Our trees were seriously overgrown and blocking all sun in backyard – now open and neat. Total tree removal from front that was completely growing around piwer lines.

Congrats Team “Trees Down Under” as you have provided an outstanding and highly professional service. As you know the access to the two large Angophora trees on my property was difficult but your team working in partnership with Transformer Cranes made a difficult job look easy.
Please pass on my sincere gratitude to all concerned for not only the work carried out but also the care and respect they showed to Puppy Rosie and myself.
Thank you for a job well done
