WHY WE NEED TREES
TREES PLAY A VITAL ROLE IN SUSTAINING LIFE ON EARTH
Trees store carbon, stabilise the soil, give life to wildlife, and more importantly, they provide us with oxygen.
Here’s a few more reasons for having trees . . .
SOCIAL
- Improving health and wellbeing – trees make us happy and areas with greater tree cover have been shown to improve mental health.
- Encouraging education and participation – communities and schools get involved with planting initiatives.
ENVIRONMENTAL
- Enhancing biodiversity – who doesn’t enjoy the song of the tui or the sight of that big fat wood pigeon sitting high up in the canopy.
- Improving air quality – trees improve air quality by removing air pollutants, such as particulate matter, and absorb gases harmful to human health.
- Reducing the urban heat island effect – Auckland’s getting hotter and hotter. Trees help cool the city through evapotranspiration.

ECONOMIC
- Increasing property values – mature trees increase property value and appeal to buyers and tenants.
- Reducing healthcare costs- We all want to be fit and healthy! This could be as easy as looking after our trees. Trees improve air quality and our wellbeing, so because we’re healthier there’s less demand on health services and related care.
HERITAGE & CULTURAL
- The benefits of Auckland’s urban forest are culturally very important. Native forest is important to mātauranga Māori (knowledge and understanding), and trees create a connection to place and history.

SAYING ABOUT TREE KING
Right from the beginning, the team at Tree King provided me with fantastic and confident service. I have a rental in Auckland and needed a large hedge trimmed. I could not meet them on-site as I no longer reside in the area. I found the service outstanding, with excellent communication throughout the quoting and finishing of the job. If you have a rental and need a team you can rely on, then Tree King is your people and very trustworthy.I recommend them to anyone. I will be using this company again. They know what they are doing and have excellent prices. Thank you.
We had all good experiences right across the company. And we are very satisfied with the job and the men who came and did the job.
Fantastic right from the initial contact. Online inquiry responded to within 24 hrs. Site visit within days and Job done with in a couple of weeks, even through we were right on Christmas and New Years. Job done right and clean was great.
Tree King are our guys for any arborist work. The trees on our property are remnants of protected bush requiring precision and knowledge. Luke and the team are always professional and they have worked closely with the council to ensure the integrity of the trees are maintained.
Brilliant company to deal with. The team cut down a huge oak tree for us which had a good audience watching from the local café, then a big stump grind and the job was done, 2 days hard work completed from the team. We are very happy with the job you did for us and you are such a professional company to deal with. Thanks for everything.
Luke and the team were fantastic and were very professional. They gave a thorough written quote, went over and above to achieve what was agreed, and the boys did a fantastic job. They checked during and after to make sure we were happy with the work. I would certainly use their services again, and highly recommend them all!
Tree King is really professional and efficient. And the price is reasonable. They came to my place and trimmed several trees as well as removed 1tree within few hours. They are really amazing and easy to communicate with.
Very professional attitude to the business of trees. Quotation process, speed of arrival, and quality of the work were superb and well above the standard of other tradies we've dealt with. And what a great bunch of friendly guys doing the job. Totally loved their work ethic and ability to work in rough weather. Cute to serve them coffees on my deck - they so deserved them!
Tree King were fabulous, they were easy to deal with on the phone. Came round to scope job and provide us a quote very quickly. They kept us updated constantly on expectation of timing for job completion and did the job much more quickly than originally anticipated. Staff all very friendly and helpful, and left the property very tidy. We couldn't ask for anything more.
Luke, and his team are amazing, coming and removing two trees from my property and then grinding the stumps. I was really impressed. Great people to engage with, the lead of the team that came was brilliant checking with me what I needed and generally just making sure everything was done really well. He ensured that safety measures were in place, and that no other plant on my property was impacted. The professional way they went about the work, and these guys were true pleasure to watch as they clearly enjoyed their work. As an Executive Coach I watched with admiration at... the way they communicated and coached each other throughout the job. The site was left immaculate, and they cleaned everything from the driveway. It was as if the trees had never been there.Our job was a relatively small one, but all I can say is I’m glad I engaged Tree King, because from the time I contacted them, they assessed my job, gave me a very reasonable quote there were no surprises for me. They managed my expectations but exceeded them in delivery. Every step of the way this team was superb, and I recommend them completelyread more
