About Tree Fellas Christchurch
A Christchurch tree service for the trees this city actually grows.
Plain-speaking tree work
Tree Fellas Christchurch looks after trees across Christchurch, New Zealand — from single backyard jobs to bigger removals and clean-ups. The approach is simple: assess the tree properly, do the work safely, and leave the section tidy.
Canterbury conditions shape everything we do. Nor'westers test weak limbs, winter southerlies snap deadwood, and fast-growing shelter species can take over a section in a few seasons. Our work is geared around those realities — weight out of crowns before storm season, clearance from roofs and lines, and removals that respect tight suburban access.

The habits behind every job.
Safety first, always
Tree work involves chainsaws, heights, rigging and heavy timber — often within metres of homes and people. Climbing gear is checked, drop zones are kept clear, and ground crew and climber stay in constant communication. No shortcuts, no exceptions.
Respect for the tree
Not every problem tree needs to come down. Where pruning or a crown reduction will solve it, we'll say so. And where removal is genuinely the right call, we'll say that too — straight up, with the reasoning explained in plain language.
Tidy sections
Chips get mulched or removed, firewood gets stacked if you want it, lawns get raked and blown. The measure of a good job isn't just the tree — it's what the property looks like when the truck pulls away.
