A to Tree Services - AKL
Arborists / Tree Removal Service in Waitoki

"A to Tree Services have been fantastic every time I’ve used them. Most recently they took down a dead tree that was perched on a very steep, almost inaccessible bank on my property. They dropped it exactly where I asked, handled the whole job smoothly, and made it look effortless.
I also get them in regularly to maintain the overgrown cliff on my section, and they’re consistently professional, safe, and really good at what they do. Their pricing is super reasonable too, which is a bonus.
I highly recommend Gary and his team — reliable, skilled, and easy to deal with."

"Really impressive business to deal with. Prompt response to enquiry and Gary came around to quote within a couple of days. Really good price to trim some tall, mature hedges and clean out old dead smaller trees. Gary did a great job of trimming and removing, included a few extra tidy ups while he was at it and left the place nice and tidy. Highly recommended."

"Gary and his team are very good. From the first contact they promptly came and viewed our property and trees to be trimmed. A quote followed two days later. We booked them in, and the following week the job was completed. Cut, branches mulched up and removed. They cleaned up nicely, blew the area and left the property immaculate.
We were very pleased with their work and would recommend them 100 percent ."

"Very professional, punctual, fairly priced, did a great job in our yard and left our driveway and deck way cleaner than they had been before they started as they meticulously cleaned up any tree debris before leaving (very pleased as that meant I could cross 'sweep driveway' off my own to-do list). Would recommend for sure. Very knowledgeable team. One of our trees had particularly rubbish access, but was no problem for them. By prior arrangement they cut one tree into rounds for use as firewood, which my dad is pretty chuffed about."

"Gary and his team at A To Tree Services provide an awesome service. They did a fantastic job removing a tall and scruffy windmill palm at our place, plus stump grinding the base. Gary is excellent to deal with - responding quickly to our initial enquiry and giving a prompt quote which was very reasonable. The job itself was done quickly and professionally. The area was cleaned up well afterwards. Very happy customers. Thanks Gary and Tom"

"I would like to recommend Gary and his Team at A to Tree Services for tree cutting and shaping of hedges, large and small. We have been very pleased to have been able to call on their services regularly to keep our greenery under control.

They are very fair in their quoting, reliable in providing services as discussed and cleaning up after their work is done. It is a pleasure to have this team of experts on our property and we admire the skill with which they open up our ‘little forest’ as they carefully prune and chop out some space for light to appear, but without the garden looking denuded.

Thank you, Team A to Tree!"

"Gary and his team have been looking after our tree work for over 10 years at different properties around the shore. Ranging from smaller tree pruning jobs to total removal of huge Washingtonian palms. The work is always undertaken on time with minimum fuss and maximum care. Essential with a lot of the work immediately adjacent to pool and patio. The clean up on completion is one of the highlights of their work. Would strongly recommend them."
