A1 Sure Services is a family-run team of qualified Auckland arborists with over 25 years’ experience. From full tree removal to a light seasonal prune, we’ve got the right specialist and the right equipment for the job.
An arborist isn’t just some bloke with a chainsaw – they’re a tree care specialist who’s trained to assess, maintain, prune and remove trees safely. A qualified arborist understands tree biology, structural risk, and how to work around power lines, buildings and neighbouring properties without causing damage.
Every job at A1 Sure Services is carried out or supervised by qualified, experienced arborists – which matters, because tree work is one of the few home services in Auckland where getting it wrong can be genuinely dangerous. A mis-judged cut on a leaning tree, or the wrong call on a diseased limb, can mean real damage to your property or a real risk to whoever’s standing nearby.

Most people can’t tell the difference between felling, pruning and trimming - and they don’t need to
Tell us what’s going on (a leaning tree, overgrown branches, a stump left over from years ago) and we’ll recommend the right service after a free, no-pressure inspection. There’s no cost or obligation to get an honest opinion.
Tree felling is a beneficial tool to efficiently and quickly remove a tree. This involves removing the branches and strategically chopping at the base of the tree in order for the tree to fall. As a result, this method can take less time than tree removal. It is an especially great tool for large-scale projects such as land clearing. Not only this, but many choose tree felling as an alternative because it keeps the tree trunk completely whole – meaning the tree can be used for timber.
It is important that tree felling is done by an experienced, professional arborist. Tree felling can be extremely dangerous with many accidents occurring per year. With A1 Sure Services, we utilise specialised equipment to safely chop, lower and remove the trees – minimising any risk. We also have the experience and knowledge to successfully fell the tree.

That’s exactly what our free inspection is for – we’ll give you an honest recommendation, even if that means telling you a prune is all you need.

We had 3 large palms cut down in our garden, all in very tight spaces. George and the team at A1 Sure Services did an excellent job. They did a thoroughly professional job in trying weather conditions. Their pricing was very competitive.
The team at A1 arrived on time and did a great job removing a large gum tree at the front of my house. They managed to carefully dismantle it without any damage to my property and they left the place spotless.
I’m really impressed with their tree trimming service. The team was incredibly hard working, using excellent technology to safely take down a large tree in difficult locations. They were professional, efficient, and reasonably priced.
We had two large Phoenix Palms that needed trimming. The communication was so prompt. The boys turned up on time and were very polite, friendly and told me exactly what they were going to do. They cleaned up brilliantly, over and above what I expected. Not to mention, they were one of the lowest quotes we received.
I highly recommend this company for any tree/hedge work you need doing. They did an excellent job on our overgrown hedge and we use them regularly - prompt, tidy, competitively priced and good customer service.
Brilliant service - really impressed with price quoted and follow up service. Would be best tree removal contractor that we have used in over 20 years.
The tree removal guys were fantastic. Very efficient, good communication, and great service overall!
