I was told that I would have to cut down my 80 yr. old Maple tree... it was devastating news. A close friend urged me to call Koala Tree for a second opinion. When Jason said he thought he could save it, I was 'over the moon'! … my beloved Maple tree has been given another chance.
“What a great company to deal with. Right from first meeting Jason for the quote to booking and then the actual day. You can tell Jason cares about what he is doing. He made it look so easy to get the equipment through my gate and into my backyard. He trimmed the tree exactly as we discussed. His team that arrived for clean up were great as well. I'm impressed! Price was great as well. Thanks Jason for a job I've dreaded for years!”
Michelle Masse · Google review“The Koala team is really fantastic as whole. From their quick response in communication, setting appointments and project completion they are personable, professional and efficient. The team works seamlessly together and move instinctively as a unit… it is really quite unique to watch in action! There was never any question about the passion, knowledge and experience that was being brought onto our property and we have plans to bring the team back in the spring to work on another project.”

Decline management, explained.
A declining tree doesn’t always mean removal. There are ways to manage decline safely, and the right one depends on the tree, its condition and the property.

Do I need an assessment or a free quote?
If you already know what work you want completed, a free quote may be all you need. If you're trying to work out what should be done, the Certified Arborist Assessment is usually the better starting point. If you're unsure, call us and we'll help you choose.
Why is the assessment $150 instead of free?
Because professional judgement is professional work. The assessment isn't a sales appointment; it's the service itself. Jason spends that time observing, interpreting evidence, answering your questions and explaining his reasoning in plain English.
What if my tree doesn't need any work?
Then that's a successful assessment. Doing nothing remains a legitimate recommendation. Sometimes monitoring is all that's required. If the evidence supports no work at all, that's exactly what we'll tell you.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in London?
Inside London's Urban Growth Boundary, a private tree 50 cm or more in diameter (measured 1.4 m above ground) is a Distinctive Tree and needs a City permit to remove. Trees of any size in a Tree Protection Area also need one. Our Permit Package ($250 per tree) prepares the application; the City decides. Tree removal permits in London
