Our Services
Pruning + Shaping
The bulk of what we do, and the part we love most. Good pruning keeps your trees healthy, safe, and looking their best, whether that's a gentle tidy-up or bringing an overgrown giant back into balance.
Tree Removal
Sometimes a tree has to come down, but we prefer to do this only as a last resort. If there's a way to save it, or to achieve what you want without felling, we'll tell you. When removal really is the right call, we do it safely and cleanly, and tidy up properly afterwards.
Garden Planning + Care
Trees are just the start. We'll help you think about the bigger picture: what to plant, where, and how to keep it all thriving for years to come.
Why Choose Us
Arbutus is led by Daniel Samya, who trained here in Australia under the legendary Tom Greenwood, one of the country's most respected arborists, before going on to run his own tree care business, Small Patch Trees & Gardens, back in Ireland.
Now he's teamed up with an old friend: Ant McConchie of Art and Science Tree Care, the 2017 Australian Tree Climbing Champion and current head judge of the national championships.
Together they bring serious skill and decades of combined experience up in the canopy, but what really sets them apart is how much they care, about your trees, your garden, and getting the job done right. They're friendly, straight-talking, and, by all accounts, pretty great to have around.

What Our Clients Say ...
We're very impressed with Daniel's work and his knowledge, he was able to advise the best option for a favourite tree in our garden that had grown too large. It looks better than ever. Daniel has a great understanding of biodiversity and not just chopping trees so we felt he had great consideration for the tree and its little inhabitants as we as our wish to safely reduce the size.
Sinead Byrne
We were looking for someone to do some pruning on our large eucalyptus tree. We had seen some mutilated eucalyptus trees in our neighborhood so we really wanted to ensure we hired someone who had a good knowledge of trees and who cared for the health and overall look of the tree. We were very fortunate to find Daniel of Small Patch Trees who impressed us on all counts. He was very respectful of our wishes for the tree and carried out the work competently and professionally. We were very happy with the end result. We would highly recommend Daniel and will be happy to use him again for any tree or garden work.
Helen Carlile
I had a few trees and flower bed in my garden that had become seriously overgrown and out of control. When Daniel initially came to me to look at the job, he was very knowledgeable of all things in my garden and when he carried out the work it was done to a very high standard. Daniel is extremely professional and friendly and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.
