If you are looking for an arborist in Whangarei, you want someone local, reliable and experienced.

We handle everything from small garden jobs to large and complex removals. We take pride in doing the job safely and leaving your property tidy.
Choosing the right arborist matters. Trees can be dangerous when handled by the wrong people, so you want a team that knows what they are doing.
At Northland Tree Care we offer:
• A fully insured and safety focused service
• Honest quoting with clear communication from start to finish
• High quality workmanship backed by experience with Northland conditions
• Reliable equipment and professional climbing and rigging techniques
• A local team with strong knowledge of the area and the types of trees we commonly see here
We aim to give every customer a result that improves the safety, look and value of their property.
Whether a tree is dead, storm damaged, leaning the wrong way or simply outgrown the space, we can remove it safely. We take the time to assess the tree, check for any hazards and choose the best method for the site. Every section is different. We use climbing, rigging, controlled lowering and chipping to keep your property safe and tidy.
Regular pruning helps keep trees healthy and reduces the risk of branches breaking during storms. We carry out crown thinning, deadwood removal, height reductions and general shaping. Our focus is to improve light, airflow and structure while keeping the natural look of the tree.
Once a tree is removed the stump can be ground out so the area can be used again. Stump grinding prevents regrowth and stops the stump becoming a trip hazard. It also makes it easier to replant or lay new lawn.
Hedges grow quickly in Northland. We trim, shape and maintain all types of hedges including large boundary lines and privacy screens. We also clear overgrown vegetation, tidy driveways and access tracks and cut back trees from power lines, water tanks and buildings.
We help property owners open up views, remove scrub, clear fence lines and prepare sites for building or landscaping. We can deal with large or small areas depending on your plans for the property.
Northland weather can be unpredictable. If branches have come down or a tree is at risk of failing, we can respond quickly. We assess the situation, secure the area and carry out safe removal or reduction to prevent further damage.
We work hard to offer a straightforward and trustworthy arborist service. Many customers choose us because we turn up when we say we will and complete the job properly. We understand that every property is different. Our goal is to complete the work safely and leave the area clean, with no stress for the homeowner.
We also understand local council requirements and can guide you if any trees are protected or need special consideration before work begins.
