Trusted tree care across Warwick

Warwick is one of Perth's northern suburbs with an abundance of trees. Around a third of the landscape, and 13 parks in all, are spread across the suburb and its well-established residential streets. Many of those mature trees were planted in the 1970s — a valuable feature that deserves proper maintenance.

Perth Arbor Services provides tree removal, pruning, lopping and risk assessments across Warwick and the surrounding northern suburbs. Our degree-qualified arborists have delivered safe, reliable tree work to Perth homeowners and businesses since 2011 — always with one clear written quote agreed before any work begins.

What we do

Tree services we offer in Warwick

One degree-qualified team for every job, from a single backyard removal to a full development-site clearance.

Tree Lopping

Where significant canopy reduction is genuinely needed, we assess the situation honestly before recommending an approach. We'll always advise whether targeted pruning can achieve the same outcome with less impact on the tree's long-term health.

Tree Removal

Warwick's 1970s housing stock means many properties carry large, ageing trees that have outgrown their space or pose a genuine risk to structures and neighbouring properties. We carry out safe, efficient removals of all sizes, with full site clean-up included.

Learn more →

Tree Pruning

With parkland covering nearly a third of Warwick's total area and streets lined with established trees, regular pruning is essential for maintaining clearance from rooflines, powerlines and fences. Our arborists prune to Australian Standard AS4373, prioritising long-term tree health over a quick tidy-up.

Tree Risk Assessment

Warwick's mature residential trees add real value to properties but carry liability when structural issues go undetected. Our written risk assessments document structural integrity, disease indicators and hazard potential, giving homeowners a clear picture of where their trees stand.

Learn more →

Land Clearance

For development sites and renovation projects across Warwick, we provide thorough lot clearance efficiently and in line with City of Joondalup requirements — flagging any protected trees before machinery arrives.

Learn more →

Stump Grinding

Once a tree is down, we grind the stump well below ground so it won't regrow or get in the way of paving, lawn or a new garden on Warwick's established blocks — grindings cleared away before we leave.

City of Joondalup tree regulations: what Warwick residents need to know

Warwick falls within the City of Joondalup local government area, and understanding what you can and can't do with trees on and around your property is important before any work begins.

The City of Joondalup is responsible for all trees on council-managed land, including street verges. Residents aren't permitted to prune, remove or interfere with verge trees without prior written approval from the City. Carrying out unauthorised work on a council tree can result in penalties and cost recovery for any damage caused.

For trees on private property, you're generally responsible for their management. However, if your property falls within a development-approval condition or contains trees subject to environmental or heritage protections, additional council approval may be required before removal or significant pruning can proceed.

It's also worth noting that the City of Joondalup has confirmed polyphagous shot-hole borer (PSHB) activity within its boundaries. If you have susceptible species on your Warwick property, early assessment is strongly recommended before the pest establishes. Perth Arbor Services will identify what requires council approval before we quote, saving you time and keeping your project on track.

Unsure what approvals your tree work requires in Warwick? Call us first on (08) 9227 0010 and we'll give you a straight answer before anything is touched.

Can highly recommend Perth Arbor Services. The guys were very friendly, professional and did a magnificent job on our very tall palm trees and the trimming of the other tree was 1st Class. A special shout out to Rowan who came out for an onsite quote. Highly experienced in his knowledge and we will definitely be calling upon Perth Arbor Services in the future! Well done ๐Ÿ‘

So pleased with the quality service we recieved from Rowan and his team. The council asked us for an arborist report for a Tree Growth Zone smaller than their mandated dimensions. Contacted Rowan and he helped us with the letter straight away. The fee was also very resoanable (fraction of the other quote I had). Highly recommended.

Saw one of your vehicles rego ending in 388 driving recklessly in traffic and driving in the emergency lane. Not great advertising when you have the company logo on the vehicle...

The guys (and gal) from Perth Arbor Services were excellent. Chris came to our property to view two large trees and provide a quote. I was immediately impressed at the knowledge and advice he provided. The team turned up on the agreed day and time and were thoroughly professional throughout the process. After, they did a great job of tidying up - very pleased and have no problem providing a five star rating for their service

Thank you so much to the team at Perth Arbor Services. What a fantastic job. Polite, efficient and concerned to get the right balance for me the client, when it came to the pruning of some of our existing trees. The result was exactly what I wanted and the clean up afterwards...perfect! I would highly recommend them.

I required quite a lot of work to be undertaken in my back garden, in order to correct a couple of small issues and to tidy it up, as I intend to sell soon. I was visited by Rowan who was very good in explaining how the garden had got to its current state and what was needed to get it to the state that I wanted. A date was agreed with Michael and Shamus and his group turned up exactly at the agreed time. They worked exceptionally hard and undertook the work that created the garden that I wanted. I was impressed that Rowan and Shamus had obviously discussed what was required and how to undertake it. I was soooo impressed that I wanted to give 10 stars, but the upper limit was only 5! If anyone that I know needs this sort of assistance then I will be passing Perth Arbor Services contact details to them.

Good to know

Warwick tree service questions, answered

Can I remove or prune a verge tree outside my Warwick home?

No. The City of Joondalup is responsible for all trees on council-managed land, including street verges, and residents aren't permitted to prune, remove or interfere with them without prior written approval. Carrying out unauthorised work on a council tree can result in penalties and cost recovery for any damage. Call us and we'll help you approach the City the right way.

Do I need council approval to remove a tree on my own property in Warwick?

Usually not — trees on private property are generally yours to manage. However, if your property falls within a development-approval condition or contains trees subject to environmental or heritage protections, additional council approval may be required before removal or significant pruning. Perth Arbor Services identifies what requires approval before we quote, not after.

What is PSHB and should Warwick residents be concerned?

The polyphagous shot-hole borer (PSHB) is an invasive beetle that bores into a wide range of tree species and can kill them. The City of Joondalup has confirmed PSHB activity within its boundaries, so if you have susceptible species on your Warwick property, early assessment is strongly recommended before the pest establishes. Our arborists can inspect and manage the risk accordingly.

What is the difference between tree lopping and tree pruning?

Heavy lopping can weaken a tree and shorten its life, while targeted reduction pruning often achieves the same clearance with far less impact on long-term health. Our arborists work to Australian Standard AS4373 and will always advise which approach your tree actually needs.

Do you grind out the stump after removing a tree?

Yes. Stump grinding is part of what we do. Once a tree is removed we can grind the stump well below ground level so it won't throw up regrowth or get in the way of paving, lawn or a new garden, and we clear away the grindings before we leave.

How quickly can you attend a storm-damaged or dangerous tree?

We're available seven days a week, including urgent response when a tree presents an immediate risk. Call us on (08) 9227 0010 and we'll get a qualified arborist out to you as quickly as possible.
