Safe, Skilled & Stress-Free Tree Removal Across Newcastle & Surrounding Areas.

Storm Damaged Trees

Fast, Safe Removal of Fallen, Unstable or Hazardous Trees

When a tree is at risk of falling — or has already come down during a storm — it becomes more than just a nuisance. It’s a safety hazard. Whether it’s threatening your home, blocking access, or leaning dangerously close to powerlines or structures, it needs to be removed safely, quickly, and professionally.
At Waratah Professional Tree Care, we specialise in the removal of dangerous, storm-damaged, and hazardous trees across Newcastle and surrounding areas. Our team is fully qualified, insured, and equipped to handle high-risk removals in even the most challenging environments — including confined spaces, steep slopes, and storm-affected sites.

When Is a Tree Dangerous or Hazardous?

You may need urgent tree removal if you notice:

  • A tree suddenly leaning or listing
  • Large limbs splitting, hanging, or falling
  • Cracks in the trunk or major branches
  • Uplifted roots or unstable soil
  • Damage from lightning, wind, or flooding
  • Decay, hollows, or visible fungal growth
  • Trees growing too close to houses, roads, or powerlines
  • A fallen tree that’s blocking access or causing property damage

If you’re unsure, our experienced tree professionals can inspect the tree and assess the level of risk.

Storm-Damaged Tree Removal

Severe weather can cause trees to split, uproot, or collapse unexpectedly. We offer:

  • Rapid response for storm-related tree emergencies
  • Controlled dismantling of fallen or fractured trees
  • Site clean-up and debris removal
  • Risk assessments for other affected trees
  • Work in coordination with insurers or emergency services if needed

Storm damage is unpredictable — but we’re prepared for it. Our team brings calm and control to even the most chaotic tree emergencies.

Our Newcastle Tree Removal Process

We follow a structured, safety-focused process to ensure every tree removal is completed efficiently and responsibly.

1

Site Assessment

We evaluate the tree’s health, stability, and location — including access, nearby buildings, and fall zones.

2

Risk Management

Hazards are identified and controlled before work begins, using qualified climbers and certified gear.

3

Safe Removal

Branches are removed in stages using ropes and rigging to lower each limb safely. Nothing is left to chance.

4

Clean-Up

All debris is mulched or removed, leaving your yard clear, safe, and damage-free.

Difficult Access Tree Removal

Many dangerous trees are located in places with limited access:
Near rooftops. Behind fences. Overhanging retaining walls. On steep terrain.

Our team has the training and specialist equipment — including Elevated Work Platforms (EWPs), rigging systems, and low-impact tools — to access and remove trees safely without damaging structures or landscaping.

If other services say “too hard”, we get it done.
