About Arborist Perth.
Tree Care Built for South West WA.
Our story
Family run. Locally owned. Properly insured.
Callum Rhodes started Arborist Perth in 2011 with one ute, one chipper and one rule: leave every property safer and tidier than we found it. He holds an AQF Level 5 consulting arborist Diploma of Arboriculture, he still inspects the hard jobs himself, and he signs every report that leaves the office.
Fifteen years on, the crew works right across Perth, WA, Australia, from Fremantle and Claremont to Mount Lawley, Joondalup and the hills. Sione leads the climbing team, Amelia books the jobs and lodges the council applications, and Josh runs the grinders. Nobody subcontracts your job to a stranger.
An Certificate III qualified arborist plans every job, prices it up front, and delivers it with public liability cover and full City compliance. Read the tickets and certificates on our licenses and credentials page, then send us the address and a photo and ask us anything.
