Trusted tree care across Inglewood

For a few weeks each November, the streets around Beaufort Street turn a soft violet as Inglewood's jacarandas come into full bloom — a spectacle that draws visitors from right across Perth. That canopy is no accident: it's the result of a century of planting alongside the suburb's Art Deco and California bungalow homes, and it needs proper care to stay both beautiful and safe.

Perth Arbor Services has looked after trees throughout Inglewood and the surrounding City of Stirling since 2011. Our degree-qualified arborists handle removal, pruning, lopping and land clearance, with one clear written quote agreed before any work begins.

What we do

Tree services we offer in Inglewood

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

Tree Lopping

When a tree genuinely needs heavy reduction for clearance or safety, we're upfront about the method. Crude lopping can leave a tree weak and prone to failure, whereas a proper reduction achieves the same result without wrecking its health.

Tree Removal

The mature gums, jacarandas and figs that shade Inglewood's older blocks can outgrow a tight interwar lot, lift paths or reach the end of their safe life. We remove trees of any size cleanly, protecting fences, verges and heritage homes, and clear the site fully.

Learn more →

Tree Pruning

Thoughtful pruning to Australian Standard AS4373 keeps a canopy healthy and shapely while clearing branches from powerlines, roofs and bungalow verandahs — cuts that support the tree's structure and long-term vigour, not just a season's tidy.

Learn more →

Tree Risk Assessment

Inglewood's prized old trees are an asset, but an unchecked one becomes a liability when limbs overhang footpaths and neighbours. Our written assessments document defects, decay and hazard potential — a clear record of due diligence for owners, strata managers and the City.

Learn more →

Land Clearance

For infill blocks, renovations and new builds around Inglewood, we carry out efficient lot clearance in line with City of Stirling requirements, taking care to identify any tree that may be protected 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 build on Inglewood's interwar lots — grindings cleared away before we leave.

Before any work begins

City of Stirling tree rules: what to check before work starts in Inglewood

Tree work in Inglewood comes with a few rules worth knowing, particularly given how much the suburb's identity rests on its street trees. Understanding where the City's responsibility sits and where yours begins will save you time and grief.

The City of Stirling manages the street and verge trees across Inglewood. Residents can't prune, remove or otherwise interfere with a street tree without the City's approval, and unauthorised removal or damage is treated as vandalism, with penalties available under the City of Stirling Thoroughfares and Public Places Local Law 2009. Holding a verge permit does not, on its own, give you any right to touch the street tree.

Trees on private land are generally yours to manage. However, if a tree is entered on the City's Significant Tree Register under Local Planning Policy 6.17, it can only be removed with the approval of the City's Tree Assessment Panel, and development approvals, subdivision conditions or a heritage listing may add further requirements before work can begin.

Perth Arbor Services checks what needs approval before we quote, not afterwards. If an application is required, we can walk you through it so your project keeps moving.

Unsure whether your Inglewood tree work needs City of Stirling approval? Call us first on (08) 9227 0010 and we'll give you a straight answer before anything is cut.

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

Inglewood tree service questions, answered

Can I prune or remove the verge tree outside my Inglewood home?

No. The City of Stirling manages the street and verge trees across Inglewood, and residents can't prune, remove or interfere with a street tree without the City's approval. Unauthorised removal or damage is treated as vandalism, with penalties under the City of Stirling Thoroughfares and Public Places Local Law 2009 — and holding a verge permit doesn't, on its own, give you any right to touch the street tree. If it's a problem, contact the City or call us and we'll point you the right way.

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

Usually not, as trees on private land are generally yours to manage. The exception is where a tree is on the City's Significant Tree Register (Local Planning Policy 6.17), in which case it can only be removed with the approval of the City's Tree Assessment Panel — and development approvals, subdivision conditions or a heritage listing can add further requirements. Perth Arbor Services checks and advises before we quote, not after.

What is the difference between tree lopping and tree pruning?

Crude lopping can leave a tree weak and prone to failure, while a proper reduction achieves the same practical result without wrecking its health. Our arborists work to Australian Standard AS4373 so every cut benefits the tree's structure, and we tell you honestly 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 build, and we clear away the grindings before we leave.

Is Inglewood affected by the polyphagous shot-hole borer (PSHB)?

Yes. Inglewood sits within Perth's metropolitan Quarantine Area for the polyphagous shot-hole borer, an invasive beetle that bores into a wide range of tree species. If you have susceptible trees on your property, early assessment is recommended, and our arborists can inspect and manage the risk accordingly.

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

We work seven days a week and offer emergency call-outs for storm damage and unsafe limbs that won't keep until Monday. Call us on (08) 9227 0010 and we'll get a qualified arborist out to you as quickly as possible.
