Planting a tree is not quite as simple as digging a hole and sticking a tree in it, there are many factors to consider such as;

  • Species selection – mature size, climate tolerance, water demand, native/exotic
  • Planting location – underground & overhead services, buildings and foundations
  • Maintenance costs – future maintenance high or low
  • When to plant – what is the best time of year to plant?
  • Soil type – this can affect individual tree growth and/or fruit production
  • After care – ensuring that your plant gets the best possible start and you’re not wasting money

Krystal McDonald

Alba took down six trees for us in a tight space. They did the job exactly as they said they would. Very impressed with the skills.

Josh Brown

Alba did a great job removing and stump grinding two large conifers without disturbing the abutting trees. Also trimmed three other trees. Professional job at a reasonable price.

Trish Henderson-Claypoole

For prompt, efficient, friendly and reasonably priced work you can't go past these guys. I had my trees removed/pruned last week and been putting off contacting someone after poor service from other tradespeople in recent times. These fears were unfounded in this case as Mik and his team surpassed all expectations by quite a margin. I would highly recommend Alba Tree Services for their expertise, efficiency and a good helping of old-fashioned courtesy.

Janis Russell

Impressed with the professionalism and competence in removing two trees and shaping another. The work was done with no inconvenience and the place was left extremely tidy. Would highly recommend.

Nev Youngman

Very professional, good equipment . Very safety aware. Good value for money.

Angela Larsen

Our beloved 130 y/o protected Oak tree at Kate Sheppard House split out and came crashing down. After phoning around - Mik at Alba Tree Services was first to respond and on-site within 15 mins, the next day Mik and his team efficiently took down the remainder of the tree without causing any further damage to the surrounding trees/plants.
I have not the slightest hesitation in recommending Alba Tree Services to anyone who needs the very best advice backed up by effective practical ability.

Julia Burbery

Absolutely delighted with the friendly, professional attitude and service from Mik and Russell, and I will be recommending you to friends (and have already) .
Not only did you turn up on time but you adjusted your price to suit the job, were super polite and professional, and most of all you did a really great job aesthetically with (let's face it) a tree that is pretty difficult to make look good. Thanks heaps guys.

L M

Have no hesitation in recommending Alba Tree Services unreservedly. This cheerful crew removed a very large tree in a day. Impressive felling, firewood cutting and wonderful clean-up of the debris. Very appreciative that this long-contemplated task was achieved so swiftly and safely, and that it proved stress-free for us.

Liz Wright

Our experience with Alba has been fantastic from start to finish. From Mik's prompt response to our original phone query, through an equally prompt furnishing of a detailed and competitive quote, to the thorough and professional job carried out by him and his team, we cannot recommend Alba highly enough.

Brian Cowan

Mik, Just A Quick Email to let you know that both Di & I really appreciate the great job you did on our trees, it is very refreshing to meet someone who really does measure up!

Frank - Christchurch

Two weeks ago I had Alba Tree Services prune our oak tree back from our house to allow more light in. I would highly recommend Alba Tree Services for their expert knowledge & prompt service. I found Michael a real pleasure to deal with, he was very thorough in explaining the job process with me, assuring me that pruning was the correct decision for my tree.

Claire Parsons - Christchurch

We're ultra happy with the great work that Alba Tree Services did on our property. A combination of excellent work ethic and friendly service! Thanks to Mik and the team for the exemplary service!

Malo S

Absolutely thrilled with the professional way in which our very large oak tree was felled. Mik was amazing. Cheapest quote of 6 quotes obtained. Being given the option of having some of our timber milled was a great option, not provided by any other arborists contacted. We would highly recommend Alba Tree Services. Prompt service and no damage. Result is spectacular.

Sue & Dave Vincent - Hornby

We Employed Mik After Some Recent Storm Damage On Our Property. He arrived promptly and quickly assessed the situation. Everything was cleared up and taken away without any hassle. We were really happy with the professional service and will definitely use Alba Tree Services again.
