Tree removal and arborist services in Castle Hill

Working in Castle Hill

• Large eucalypts on older blocks around the Showground and Excelsior precincts are a regular source of deadwood and roof-clearance work.
• Many Castle Hill trees are protected under The Hills Shire Council's tree controls, so we check approval requirements before quoting removals.
• Access is usually good, though steep driveways off Old Northern Road and Gilbert Road can limit crane and chipper access.
