Tree Removal North Shore & Ryde

Local knowledge

Tree work in the North Shore & Ryde

Ace Tree Care is based in Chatswood, so the North Shore is home ground. Behind the high-rise centre, Chatswood and its neighbours are full of leafy streets, Federation and post-war homes and large established trees, many of them gums, jacarandas and liquidambars that have grown well above the roofline.

Across the Lane Cove River, Ryde has family homes on bigger blocks, bushland reserves and plenty of mature backyard trees. We handle removals, pruning, hedging, stump grinding and emergency work across both areas.

Council rules for tree removal

Willoughby City Council and the City of Ryde both control tree removal and pruning on private land through their Development Control Plans, made under the State Environmental Planning Policy (Biodiversity and Conservation) 2021. Protected trees generally need approval before removal or significant pruning, and the rules differ between the two councils. We check the rules for your address at the quote and can help with the application.
