Expert Tree Pruning in Sydney

Proper tree pruning requires more than just cutting off branches — it’s a strategic process that supports healthy growth, reduces risk, and enhances visual appeal. Our qualified professionals understand the specific biology and structure of native and fruit trees in the Sydney region. We tailor our pruning approach based on species, age, and location.

Our tree pruning services include:

  • Formative pruning to establish strong structure in young trees
  • Deadwood removal to eliminate diseased or broken limbs
  • Selective thinning to allow light penetration and air circulation
  • Canopy lifting to improve clearance and aesthetics
  • Weight reduction for large or unbalanced limbs

We also offer specialist pruning services for:

  • Fruit trees (apple, apricot, citrus, fig and more)
  • Ornamental trees and hedges
  • Palm frond removal

These targeted services not only enhance the beauty of your outdoor space but also contribute to long-term plant health. With over a decade of experience, our team knows how to tailor each pruning job to the unique needs of the tree species and its location.

I had to completely refurbish my apartment veranda. A lot of work repotting 15 huge troughs and pots and I was quite particular about the soil I wanted. Terry arrived with 4 men and the did the job perfectly and so quickly. I was amazed and thrilled with the results. He is coming back in February to hedge and finish a few minor things. He leads his team and he even mopped up myPlace as I am in a wheelchair. He knows what he is doing! Will use his service again for sure. Thanks Terry. Nicole
My mother had Terry and the crew come and weed and tidy her garden. Carmel said ‘They were prompt, professional, pleasant and did a wonderful job and were so thorough in cleaning up. Highly recommend Terry and his crew’

Terry listened to what I wanted and helped me refine my vision. I went on holiday and Terry and his team transformed my backyard from a depressing mess to a functional and enjoyable backyard. Even though I was on holiday Terry communicated really well and I never felt I wasn't aware of how the job was progressing and Terry sent photos daily. I love spending time outside relaxing and gardening, so thank you Terry and your team!

This is five star gardening for sure! I was desperate for a good gardener as my garden had several bush stumps to remove! No one wanted the job, it was too hard others said. I phoned Terry and he very quickly organised a gardener, Robert, to come out two days after I called. Robert was fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble. He picked up the plants and soil from the nursery. He did an excellent job within a few hours, the bush stumps were completely removed, he worked like a trojan! We could not believe it! He turned our garden into a paradise. Thank you, Terry and Robert. Ellen from Caringbah South

Terry was very professional, needed our paved driveway re levelled as it had sunk. As the pavers are old Terry was able to track some down for us that matched our current pavers perfectly. Great job, on time and very efficient. Would definitely use again.

Terry and his team have just completed work for me and I am extremely pleased with the result. It involved the redesign design of an unusually shaped large area which had to be leveled. Old pavers had to be taken up and relaid, new gardens and a clothes line area established and turf laid. All this had to be done with curved lines. They worked efficiently and finished the job quickly.

Terry and his guys arrived super early for our late morning arrangement today, 18 May 2023 and got into the work straightaway. I asked him to trim my front hedge as well as the back trees in my yard. The guys acted swiftly to finish the job in a blitz. My request as foretold had been done according to my satisfaction. I wouldn't mind recommending this bunch to friends and associates for their job well done. I called him yesterday only and now my place has been cleared and cleaned.

I’m a neighbour of a property in Kirribilli, I overlook the next door rear garden.The above company spent the last 2 mornings professionally cutting through untidy undergrowth, overgrown out of control banana trees(overhanging our units & blocking light), generally tidying up & laying grass.The whole area looks amazing, adds value to my front verandah & entrance & the smiling countenance from all the 4-5 workers when I was “sticky beaking” was so professional.
