What we offer in Belconnen:

Can I Remove a Tree on My Property in Gungahlin?

In the ACT, it depends. Some trees are protected under local tree protection laws, which means you might need approval before taking one down. The rules mostly apply to taller trees or ones with a wide canopy or thick trunk. If you’re unsure, we’re happy to help you figure it out and walk you through the process.

What’s the Average Cost of Tree Removal in Gungahlin?

There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to price — it depends on the size of the tree, where it’s located, and how hard it is to access. But here’s a rough guide to get you started:

Small trees (under 5m): From $300
Medium trees (5–10m): $700–$1,500
Larger or tricky trees: $1,500–$4,000+

We’re always upfront with pricing and offer free quotes with no obligation. That way, you’ll know what to expect before we even fire up a chainsaw.

Is There a Cheaper Time of Year for Tree Removal?

If you’re looking to save a bit, winter and early spring are usually the best times to book. It’s our quieter season, and you’ll likely get a better rate. Summer can get hectic with storm damage work, so prices can jump during those busier periods.

Is It Cheaper to Top a Tree or Cut It Down?

Topping might sound like a quick fix, but it can actually be more trouble than it’s worth. It can stress the tree, cause weak regrowth, and create bigger problems down the track. In most cases, if a tree’s unsafe or too big for the space, it’s cleaner and more cost-effective to remove it properly. We’ll give you honest advice on what makes the most sense for your situation.

Brett and the guys removed 3 tree’s. All the proper precautions were taken, the tree’s were felled in a controlled way, restraints were used to ensure branches stayed in my yard when they fell. I was expecting it go smoothly because a site assessment was undertaken prior to the work being done. Very happy with the result. Mark

Response from the owner 05:51 30 Jan 25

Thanks very much mark. Dropping trees in a controled and safe mannor is what we do best. We are very humbled to know that you notice all of the pre-work that goes into getting a job done successfully. Site assessment is very important to us so we know everyone and thing around is safe.

Review of O’Briens Tree Services ACT

I highly recommend O’Briens Tree Services as a highly professional and value- for-money tree removal company. T
hey undertook the work for me in Canberra. They were extremely professional, efficient and prompt every step of the way- from first contact, inspection, quote, providing the target date and arriving on the nominated day. I had one extremely large tree approved to remove and several smaller ones. They were a hardworking team and worked safely and effectively to do all that work, as well as chipping, removal of debris and stump removal. I was amazed how much they could get done in a day and how well they did it. Not only that, but they were considerably less expensive than other quote(s). I highly recommend them to anyone needing trees removed.

O'Brien Tree Service did an incredible job cutting down a number of trees, handling stump grinding, and chipping the wood. They were quick, reliable, and provided excellent value for money. What really stood out was their attention to detail—they cleaned up everything afterward and even left the wood chips behind for me to use as mulch. No task was an issue for them, and their professionalism was top-notch. If you need tree services done right, I highly recommend O'Brien Tree Service!

Response from the owner 03:23 08 Oct 24

The team from O’Briens Tree Service have done two large tree removal jobs for us. Both times they have been prompt and professional. I was really impressed with the huge amount of work they got completed in one day.
The price was very reasonable for the size of the job.
Very easy to deal with. I would give them more than 5 stars if I could.
Will have them back for any future tree work and will recommend them to any family or friends looking for tree services.
