What's included in our tree lopping services

Our tree lopping services cover structural branch drop-cutting, dramatic canopy height reductions, hazardous overhanging limb removal, and urgent storm preparation cutting to protect roofs and service wires. We use commercial-grade lowering ropes, high-reach cherry pickers, and high-capacity woodchippers to systematically dismantle massive limbs while keeping your understory gardens and fences entirely undisturbed.

Factors affecting your tree lopping project

Lopping established trees in Western Australia requires strict compliance with individual local council guidelines and strict vegetation preservation orders. Many Perth municipalities enforce heavy restrictions and require formal permits before you can cut back major canopy systems, lop structural limbs, or significantly alter protected native species like Tuarts, Jarrahs, and Marris.

Homeowners must verify their local council's clearance rules before commencing structural cuts, as unauthorized or excessive tree lopping can lead to tree instability, structural decline, and significant local government fines. Furthermore, tree position plays a massive role in overall project complexity; limbs overhanging main power lines, swimming pools, glass pool fencing, or neighboring boundaries require slow, meticulous rope-rigging and climbing protocols.

Typical tree lopping costs in Perth

Tree lopping is priced strictly on a per-job basis rather than a single flat rate, given the massive variability in residential tree weights and heights. Small, straightforward branch lopping or low-level clearance jobs typically start from $250 to $400, while complex projects involving extra-large structural trees, dangerous high climbing, or tight backyard crane access can scale upward from $1,500 to $3,000+.

Your final custom quote will depend on the overall height and width of the tree, the specific species (such as heavy, brittle Eucalypts or massive Tuarts), proximity to assets like roofs or power lines, and immediate green waste woodchipping fees.

fREQUENTLY ASKED qUESTIONS

Can you lop branches that are overhanging from a neighbor's property?

Tree lopping involves cutting away large, major structural branches or removing entire sections of a tree canopy to manage excessive height, eliminate storm hazards, or clear building lines. Tree pruning is a lighter, health-focused maintenance service that subtly thins the inside of the tree or shapes garden hedges without altering the tree's primary structural architecture or canopy framework.

It depends completely on your local municipal council rules. While clearing limbs away from immediate rooflines or dangerous service wires often does not require permits, significant structural branch lopping or crown reductions on mature native species (like Jarrah or Tuart trees) may require formal local government approval. Our partner network crews can evaluate your site and guide you through your local council restrictions.

Yes, under common law in Western Australia, property owners generally have the legal right to cut back overhanging tree branches to the exact physical boundary line, provided the lopping does not cause permanent structural damage or instability to the tree itself. It is always highly recommended to speak politely with your neighbor beforehand, and our crews can handle the lopping cleanly directly from your side of the fence line.

Residential tree lopping prices start from $250 to $400 for basic ground-level branch cutting or low-canopy clearance. For massive structural trees, hazardous high-climbing over asset lines, or jobs requiring high-reach cherry pickers and crane access, pricing scales upward from $1,500 to $3,000+. Every custom quote includes thorough green waste woodchipping and complete property cleanup.
