What Our Customers Say

We recently purchased a new property with an enormous pepper tree in the back corner – only accessible via a tight (2.6m) wide driveway and fairly narrow back yard. We also needed maintenance pruning on a significant gum tree (easily 15m tall) and removal of a few other smaller trees.

mark arrived at the appointed time and providing a response via a professional quotation application, which was in stark contrast to several other people we had engaged to provide quotations.

The work was done in an efficient manner by polite workers – the guys really know what they are doing! Despite a few weather challenges, which delayed work a few times, they got on with the work. When work had to be delayed/deferred, Sue (admin in the office) was always polite and courteous to deal with.

A fantastic price and a great job done – I cannot recommend ATS highly enough. Thanks for a job well done!
