Emergency arborists in Perth
10 Perth arborists that say they take emergency callouts, for a tree down across a driveway or roof, a large limb hanging, or a tree leaning after a storm.
Do this first
Before anyone arrives, and before you agree to a callout fee.
- 1If the tree is touching powerlines, treat it as a live electrical hazard. Stay at least eight metres away, keep everyone back, and ring your electricity distributor — an arborist legally cannot touch it until the network makes it safe.
- 2Keep clear of anything hanging. A limb caught in the canopy can drop with no warning and no sound.
- 3Do not attempt it with a domestic chainsaw. Storm-damaged trees hold unpredictable tension and this is where most serious injuries happen.
- 4Photograph the damage and the position of the tree before anything is cut, for both your insurer and the council.
- 5If the tree is on a boundary or a nature strip, check ownership before authorising removal — councils regulate many trees and some are protected even after storm damage.
If anyone is in danger, ring 000. For a gas leak ring 132 771. For a fallen powerline, stay at least eight metres away and ring your electricity distributor — not a tradesperson.
10 of 42 arborists listed in Perth, Western Australia state that they offer emergency or after-hours callouts. This is what each business publishes about itself and has not been independently verified — WhoToHire does not check response times or confirm that anyone is available at a given hour. The businesses are ordered by independent evidence: corroboration across sources, agreement between the listed phone number and the number on the business's own website, website reachability and review history. Nobody pays for a position. Before ringing, ask about the callout fee, the after-hours loading, and how long until someone is actually on site.
What “emergency” means on this page
These 10 businesses publish that they take emergency callouts. We have not verified that. Unlike the ABN, contact-accuracy and website checks — which we run ourselves and publish the results of either way — availability is a claim, and nobody has rung these numbers at 3am to test it. Expect to try more than one.

Ask these on the phone
Emergency work is where quote-on-arrival pricing causes the most disputes. Two minutes of questions before anyone is dispatched prevents nearly all of them.
- Is the tree near powerlines, and are you qualified to work near them?
- What is the callout fee, and is removal of the debris included?
- Can you make it safe today if full removal has to wait?
- Are you insured for property damage, and can I see the certificate?
Common questions
- How many Perth arborists offer emergency callouts?
- 10 of the 42 arborists listed in Perth state that they take emergency or after-hours callouts. That is what the business publishes about itself — we have not independently verified availability, response times or that anyone will answer at 3am.
- What should I do before arborist arrives?
- If the tree is touching powerlines, treat it as a live electrical hazard. Stay at least eight metres away, keep everyone back, and ring your electricity distributor — an arborist legally cannot touch it until the network makes it safe. Keep clear of anything hanging. A limb caught in the canopy can drop with no warning and no sound. Do not attempt it with a domestic chainsaw. Storm-damaged trees hold unpredictable tension and this is where most serious injuries happen.
- What should I ask when I ring?
- Is the tree near powerlines, and are you qualified to work near them? What is the callout fee, and is removal of the debris included? Can you make it safe today if full removal has to wait? Getting the callout fee and the after-hours loading agreed on the phone is the single most effective thing you can do to avoid a dispute afterwards.
- Does anyone pay to appear on this list?
- No. There is no paid placement, no sponsored listings and no advertising product anywhere on this site. The order is set by independent checks — corroboration across sources, contact accuracy, website reachability and review history.
Not actually an emergency?
If it can wait until business hours, it is worth waiting. Emergency callouts carry after-hours loadings, and the full Perth list is 42 businesses rather than 10 — a much better field to choose from.
