Engadine sits on the edge of Royal National Park, giving residents direct access to some of Sydney's best bushland. But that proximity comes with responsibility — particularly around bushfire preparation, hazardous tree management, and maintaining defendable space around your property.
Many Engadine homes back onto thick native bushland with towering eucalyptus, angophoras, and banksia. These species are beautiful but can drop heavy limbs, harbour termites, or become fuel loads during fire season. Our arborists regularly work in Engadine clearing vegetation zones, removing hazardous trees, and ensuring properties meet Rural Fire Service guidelines.
Professional tree lopping addresses overgrowth, clearance, and safety issues while keeping your trees healthy.
When trees in Engadine outgrow their space, professional lopping reduces their size while maintaining structural integrity and health.

All branches and debris removed from site. Your property left clean and tidy.
I recently hired True Roots to remove a large gum tree from my property, and I couldn't be more impressed with their service. From the initial consultation to the final clean-up, the team was professional, efficient, and careful.
Highly recommend. James and the boys did an amazing job cutting down a large tree in my yard. Super professional, efficient, and left everything clean and tidy. Will definitely call again for any future tree work.
True Roots removed two large trees and ground the stumps all in one day. Great communication from start to finish, fair pricing, and the site was spotless when they left. Highly recommend for anyone in the Shire.
Tree lopping involves the removal of large sections of the tree — typically major branches or portions of the trunk — to significantly reduce its size. Tree pruning is more targeted, removing specific branches to improve health, shape, or clearance. Our arborists recommend the right approach for your situation.
Tree lopping is legal in Engadine, but Sutherland Shire Council may require a permit depending on the tree's size and species. Indiscriminate lopping that damages or kills a protected tree can result in fines. True Roots ensures all work is done professionally and in compliance with local regulations.
Tree lopping costs in Engadine range from $300 for minor lopping work to $3,000+ for large trees requiring significant reduction. The price depends on the tree's size, the amount of material to be removed, and site access. We provide free on-site quotes.
Based in Mortdale, True Roots provides tree lopping services across the Sutherland Shire, St George, and greater Sydney region.
