Tight-Access Urban Tree Specialists

Inner West properties present unique challenges: narrow lanes, overhead wires, close neighbours, and zero clearance. Unlike standard tree loppers who require massive clear drop zones, our team uses specialized light-footprint equipment and advanced rigging.

We safely rope, catch, and lower every major branch piece-by-piece, ensuring your roof, glass pergolas, and neighbouring fences remain completely untouched.

Inner West Council Rules: What You Need to Know

The Inner West Council highly values its urban canopy. Removing or significantly lopping a tree usually requires a formal permit if the tree is over a certain height (typically 6 metres) or has a trunk diameter wider than 300mm.

Pruning Allowances:  You are often permitted to clear branches that are within 2 metres of your dwelling or overhanging a roofline without a full permit.
Protected and Significant Trees: Heritage areas have additional layers of protection.

We deal with Inner West Council guidelines every week. We can inspect your tree and let you know exactly what is allowed, saving you weeks of back-and-forth paperwork.

Complete Tree Care for Inner West Homes & Strata

  • Urban Tree Removal: Efficiently dismantling dangerous, dead, or structurally compromised trees in narrow backyards.
  • Canopy Reduction & Thinning: Perfect for opening up natural light into dark terrace homes or clearing solar panels without damaging the health of the tree.
  • Palm Tree Removal & Clean-ups: Stripping away dead fronds and seed pods from seed-dropping palms, or removing them entirely to eliminate mess.
  • Stump Removal: Small, portable stump grinders designed to fit through standard side gates and narrow front doors to grind away unsightly stumps.

“We needed a large gum tree trimmed away from our roofline in Leichhardt. The TLS team did an incredible job working in a very narrow courtyard. They coordinated everything perfectly and even swept up the neighbour’s side yard.”
