Prompt, friendly and efficient service. Dead trees removed quickly and clean up very thorough. I highly recommend them.

Francis Duke took on a difficult job cutting down large gum trees that other arborists would not take on. The team took every safety precaution and did a terrific job.

I rang Paul Duke a week ago and left a message.. he rang back within the hour and arranged to check out what I needed doing a few days later. I needed large branches overhanging the roof cut back and after a competitive quote he organised to do it on Monday. The 3 men doing it were very pleasant and had the job done by lunchtime. Not only did they do a good job on the tree, they cleaned the gutters, cleaned up the yard and even did the front footpath! I can highly recommend Frank Duke Tree Services. They were professional, reliable and efficient.

Frank duke may be a good tree feller but abysmal driving his chipper on the road. No courtesy, no giving way and totally ignored a chance to let a driver in almost causing a crash.

This service was worth every cent. The men were pleasant; they greeted us upon arrival and upon their departure. We had a 15+ meter tall Silky Oak removed [with council permit]. They planned their approach to bring down the tree & got on with the job. They worked well as a team: felling branches, removing & mulching, etc. They took care with the owner's and neighbor's properties. Safety was important to them. They cleaned up the site before they left. Price was competitive. Definitely recommended.

I rang Frank a few months back to discuss removing a 10+ metre high tree in our front garden that had died. I was worried about it blowing over in a storm and hitting the house and being a sizable tree I needed some professional help.

Frank and I discussed the matter and scheduled a time for him to drop by and see it first hand. After confirming the tree's condition, an appt. was scheduled and as good as his word his crew arrived on time and promptly removed the tree and all the trimmings, taking care that neither my property or my neighbours around me were damaged and that generally all the bits and pieces were picked up.

The only wrinkle in the matter was the process was put to a sudden halt as at the base of the trunk near the ground the tree was totally infested with termites and they could not continue. Frank rang me prior to alert me of the problem and said when I had the termite problem taken care of he'd come back and remove the rest of the trunk.

Needless to say 2-weeks later the termites were dealt with and arranged Frank's crew to drop by and remove the rest of the trunk, leaving behind only a mulched mound - problem solved !

Frank was the utmost in professionalism and, much to my surprise, did not ask for any down payment nor payment in full until after the tree's complete removal. It was wonderful to meet and have the opportunity to deal with someone who worked on a handshake agreement.

If you're looking for someone to do any tree surgery and specializes in removal then Frank Duke is your guy. I totally recommend him and would have no hesitation in using him again.

NB: total cost was $300.00 which included a 10% discount voucher I had, meaning, the guy's good and didn't haggle over the price as I first asked about his fee and then brought up the voucher.
