01 Tree Lopping

Tree lopping in
Hornsby Shire.

From a single garden tree to a large heritage-scale canopy - Farache Tree Services removes and prunes trees safely and cleanly. 20+ years of Hornsby Shire experience means Mick has seen every species and every access situation this area produces.

What's included

  • Full tree removal including all major limbs and stem
  • Crown lifting - raise canopy clearance over structures and paths
  • Crown thinning - reduce wind load without butchering the form
  • Crown reduction - reduce height and spread while preserving shape
  • Deadwood and hazardous limb removal
  • Palms, jacarandas, gums, brushbox and all common Hornsby Shire species
  • Stump grinding - below ground level, no chemicals, ready to turf or replant
  • All green waste chipped or removed from site

When you need this

The tree is dropping branches into the neighbour's yard"
It's blocking the light from our whole back garden"
The gum looks sick and I'm worried it'll come down on the house"
We're selling and the overgrown tree is killing the street appeal"
Typical price range
$400 – $3,500+

Most residential removals land between $600–$1,800. Stump grinding is $150–$600 per stump and can be bundled with any tree job. Price moves with tree size, species, access difficulty and site conditions. Mick quotes on-site - no call-centre estimates.

Common questions

Topping cuts a tree back to stubs with no regard for branch structure. It causes decay, weak regrowth and ultimately costs more to manage long-term. Farache Tree Services uses crown reduction - which reduces height and spread while preserving the tree's structural integrity.
A typical residential removal takes 2–6 hours. Large or complex jobs may run a full day. Mick will give you a realistic time estimate at the quoting stage so you can plan around it.
All green waste is chipped on-site. Chippings can be left as mulch or removed - your choice. Larger timber is either cut to firewood lengths for you to keep, or removed as part of the clean-up.

02 Rubbish Removal

Rubbish removal in
Hornsby Shire.

Green waste from a tree job, a full household clean-out, a deceased estate, leftover materials from a renovation - Farache Tree Services loads and hauls it all. You point to the pile, we make it disappear.

What's included

  • Green waste and garden rubbish
  • Household clean-outs - furniture, whitegoods, general clutter
  • Deceased estate and deceased-owner property clear-outs
  • Post-renovation material - timber, plasterboard, tiles, packaging
  • Hard rubbish and kerbside overflows
  • All loading done by the crew - you don't lift a thing
  • Responsible disposal at proper waste facilities

When you need this

We cleared the shed and now there's a pile of timber on the lawn with nowhere to go"
Mum's house is being sold and the property needs a full clean-out"
The tradie left a mess after the reno and we don't have a trailer"
The council hard rubbish pile grew faster than the truck comes round"
Typical price range
$200 – $1,200+

Price moves with volume (measured in cubic metres), weight, waste type and number of loads. A ute-load of garden waste differs significantly from a full household clear-out. Mick quotes on-site after seeing the job.

Common questions

Green waste, general household rubbish, furniture, whitegoods, timber, post-renovation material, and hard rubbish. Hazardous materials such as asbestos, chemicals, or medical waste are outside scope - these need a specialist crew, and Mick will tell you straight.
Where the schedule allows, yes. Call Mick directly on 0416 031 015 for urgent jobs - he'll let you know what's possible without over-promising.
Absolutely - that's one of the main advantages of one crew doing multiple trades. A tree removal job can include green waste removal, a shed clean-out and garden tidy in a single visit. Quote the lot together for the best value.

03 Gardening

Gardening in
Hornsby Shire.

Regular maintenance, one-off tidy-ups, hedging, mulching - Farache Tree Services handles the outdoor maintenance that keeps Hornsby Shire properties looking their best. No lock-in contracts. Book for the jobs you need, when you need them.

What's included

  • Regular garden maintenance - monthly, fortnightly or weekly
  • One-off garden tidy-ups and seasonal clean-outs
  • Hedging and topiary shaping
  • Mulching - supply and spread
  • Weeding and garden bed preparation
  • Lawn edging and mowing
  • All green waste removed from site

When you need this

The hedges have got away from us and it's embarrassing from the street"
We've been away and the garden looks like it's been abandoned"
We want someone reliable once a month, not a different person every time"
The garden beds need a proper mulch and tidy before summer"
Typical price range
$150 – $800+

Gardening price depends on hours, property size, scope and green waste volume. A regular maintenance visit for a typical Hornsby Shire block runs $150–$350. One-off tidy-ups and hedging jobs are quoted on-site.

Common questions

No - as long as there's access to the garden, Mick's crew can work while you're out. Most regular-maintenance clients are not home during visits. A quick setup conversation before the first visit is all it takes.
Both. One-off seasonal clean-outs, pre-sale tidy-ups and single hedge-trimming jobs are all welcome. No lock-in contracts - book what you need.
Frequently done - a tree job often leaves the garden in a state that benefits from a tidy-up immediately after. Quote both together and Mick will give you the best combined rate.

04 Small Demolition

Small demolition in
Hornsby Shire.

Old shed, rotting fence, deck past its use-by date, carport that needs to go before the builder arrives. Farache Tree Services handles the non-structural demolition that Hornsby homeowners need most - without the cost and overhead of a full demolition contractor.

What's included

  • Shed demolition - timber, metal and Colorbond
  • Fence and paling removal
  • Deck demolition and removal
  • Carport and pergola removal
  • Concrete slab breaking and removal
  • Pool surround and coping demolition
  • All materials loaded and removed from site

When you need this

The old shed has to go before the builder can start the extension"
The deck is rotting and dangerous - we just want it gone"
We're finally getting the yard sorted and the old fence has to go first"
The pool surround has cracked and it all needs to come up"
Typical price range
$400 – $3,000+

Price depends on structure type, size, materials and disposal. A timber garden shed runs $400–$900. A large Colorbond carport with concrete slab is at the higher end. Everything quoted on-site after Mick has seen the structure.

Common questions

No. Asbestos removal is specialist work and must not be touched by a general trades crew. If Mick suspects asbestos during the quote visit - common in pre-1990 Hornsby Shire structures - he'll tell you clearly and point you to the right specialist before any work begins.
Yes - that's the most efficient way. Demolish and remove in a single visit. Often paired with a garden tidy or tree job on the same day.
