Questions
Tree work in Kingsford: questions.
Do I need council approval to remove a tree in Kingsford?
Often. Kingsford is in the Randwick City Council area, where a permit is usually needed for 5 m or taller, 4 m canopy, or 400 mm trunk circumference at 1 m. Exempt species and some pruning don't need one. Our Randwick guide walks through it with a checker.
Does the 10/50 bushfire rule apply in Kingsford?
None of Kingsford is mapped as bush fire prone land. 10/50 entitlement areas use a different map, so this is only a guide: the 10/50 clearing rule probably won't apply. The RFS tool, not the suburb, decides. See the 10/50 rule explained.
Do you work in Kingsford?
Yes. We're a Sutherland Shire business working right across Sydney, including Kingsford and nearby Daceyville, Kensington and Randwick.
How much does tree removal cost in Kingsford?
It depends on the tree's size, access, what's underneath and whether you want the stump ground. A tree over the roof or against the house usually comes down in sections, so it's priced on time and care rather than size alone. Quotes are free and no-obligation. See what affects the cost.
