Fabulous service and great value. From the moment Lloyd arrived to quote the job I knew these blokes knew what they were doing. Very professional and did a really good job on a tricky part with two mature trees that had fallen into each other. We’ll be getting them back again soon for more work. Highly recommend.

Read more Rated 5 out of 5We employed Ben and Lloyd from Arbfirm to take down 5 large trees which were located on a house site. The trees had to be cut down and have the roots removed. Arbfirm did a professional, clean and timely job from start to finish. We were very pleased with their work, communication and pricing and would happily recommend them to anyone.

When a quick opinion isn’t enough
Guesswork on Trees Creates Real Liability
Removing the wrong tree, retaining a high-risk specimen, or approving a bad prune creates liability for owners and strata councils. Councils and insurers increasingly expect documented assessment.
How we form a useful opinion
Arborist Services Grounded in a Real Site Visit
We combine on-site inspection with plain-language reporting so owners, strata committees, and commercial asset managers can decide with confidence—whether the question is one tree or a whole verge.
How a consult unfolds
Three Steps From Brief to a Usable Report
Same simple process whether you’re in the Perth Hills or wider Perth metro—we plan first, then execute safely.
Brief and site visit
We clarify the decision you need—DA, insurance, duty of care, or maintenance planning.
Assessment
We inspect stems, roots, targets, and context, and photo-document findings.
Report and discussion
You receive clear conclusions, risk context, and practical work options—not generic boilerplate.
Tree risk assessments
We document condition, targets (people, buildings, services), and defect locations so you can prioritise work, meet duty-of-care, or support insurance and council processes. Reports are written for the decision you need—not generic templates.
Strata tree maintenance
Common-property trees need a programme, not one-off panics. We help strata managers and councils with cyclical inspections, make-safe after storms, and records for AGM and insurer questions—inductions and access rules included.
Commercial tree services
Schools, retail, industrial, and body corporate sites get the same safety standards and clear scope on quotes. We can phase works to match budgets, quieter access windows, and your contractor coordination.
Where we consult most often
Arborist Services Across the Perth Hills
We consult across Perth Hills suburbs and into Perth metro—homes, strata buildings, schools, and commercial sites.
Why cheap reports backfire
A Bad Call on a Tree Costs Years to Fix
Without a proper assessment you may face:
- Council knockbacks or delayed approvals
- Disputes after tree-related damage or injury
- Unnecessary removal of valuable trees
- Repeat spending when the wrong treatment fails

What to Know Before Booking an Arborist
Do you call yourselves arboriculturists?
Arboriculture is the field; arborists apply it on site. We provide practical assessments and can align with reporting standards your council or insurer expects.
Can you assess trees for schools or commercial sites?
Yes. We support commercial programmes and one-off risk reviews.
How do I book an arborist near me?
Phone or email with your suburb and reason for the visit; we will propose a site date.
Can you align with our strata AGM budget cycle?
Yes. We can phase works across financial years where that helps the committee plan.
Do you provide records for strata insurers?
We can provide photo records and written summaries when commissioned to do so.
