For three decades Frontier Tree Services has been a trusted name on The Gold Coast. As passionate service providers for all things tree-related, our goal is and has always been towards conservation and preservation.
As qualified members of the Queensland Arboriculture Association, we work closely with the Gold Coast Council to ensure the Gold Coasts trees are treated with care.
Damaged, diseased or obstructive trees, need to be handled with care. The first course of action for so many tree servicing companies is to suggest extensively pruning the tree or removing it altogether.
This is where Frontier Tree Services differs.
Our goal as qualified AQF L5 arborists is to help you decide on the best and safest course of action for your trees. Conservation is our passion, our focus is on saving and preserving trees as much as possible. Our arborists can spot when a tree can be saved, setting us apart from the competition.
If quality workmanship and expert advice is a priority for you, contact our friendly customer service team today. For safe and reliable tree servicing with tree preservation at the forefront, choose Frontier Tree Services.

Tree Pruning
All our pruning is carried out in accordance with Australian Standard AS4373 and in accordance with local Gold Coast City Council and Queensland Arboriculture Association guidelines. With all pruning, our aim is to improve the safety and appearance of your trees.
Tree Removal
In some instances, an application to the council is required and specific conditions must be met for tree removal. Frontier Tree Services can handle all the paperwork and are fully insured and trained to carry out even the most complex of removals.
Tree Lopping
Tree lopping is something we strongly recommend against and, in fact, should be avoided at all costs. Lopping unbalances your trees and can ruin their shape – making them unsightly and unsafe.
Stump Grinding
Stump grinding helps remove any residual obstruction, clearing the way for a new tree, garden or lawn. We utilise the latest in stump grinding equipment, ensuring efficient and rapid removal.
Other Areas Of Expertise
We also offer a range of other services such as:
Tree maintenance for your home, business or body corporate;
Palm tree cleaning, banding & removal;
Arborist reports for DA applications;

This has been the fourth time that we have used Simon to remove trees from our property and yet again another faultless operation from the whole team - from the friendly and attentive office staff to the very professional team on the ground including the stump grinder. Our garden was left very tidy and I would not hesitate in recommending Frontier Tree Service. Vic McIntosh

A net search to find an Arborist guided me to Frontier Tree Services. I wanted understanding and diagnosing as to what may be negatively affecting my mature Ponytail Tree. FTS were prompt in reply, clear with their rate, offered feedback,& were exceptionally professional and willing to share and be helpful. It was a positive outcome for me. To me this shows a true respect and passion for good tree health. Sincere thanks FTS. I’m most thankful. I hope others seek you out for guidance.

From Simon’s quote, to Sharnee’s communication, to Alex and the crew that completed the job, I have nothing but praise for this fabulous team. The price was fair, emails were responded to in a timely fashion, the team even turned up a little early on the day. The 4 on site all knew their roles and worked efficiently together. Everyone has been super friendly too. Would absolutely recommend Frontier!!

Frontier Trees did an excellent job as usual. The tidy up was a challenge as we cut about 30 palm seeds down all over a beomeliad garden but they did a really good job. Some tree branches hanging over the house were successfully removed as well. I would highly recommend this company.

We just had a massive fig tree removed, and the stump ground down, by Frontier Tree Services.They're a great team. Good communication throughout. They did a fantastic job of getting rid of the tree and stump, and also left everything super clean. I don't think we could even find a single wood chip or any small branches/leaves left over.We will definitely be recommending them if we hear of anyone else needing a tree removed.

from initial quote to actual work everything went as predicted. Quote was a breeze, got the pricing on the spot and arranged for service. Lead-time was about 4 weeks. Initially they had cancellation so could fit us in but we were travelling so couldn't.The punctuality of crew tells you they are proper operators. From both the quote and actual day of work, they arrived at the time they said they would. No deposit, just credit card authorization to undertake the job and was charged post the job.We got 2 quotes and both were similarly priced thus I went with Frontier who provided more professional touch from start to finish.Definitely will recommend to anybody

I highly recommend Frontier Tree Services. They turned up to quote when they said they would, turned up to do the job when they said they would and were reasonably priced for the job. I had a range of size trees removed from my urban property.Frontier was the only company out of four that I contacted who actually demonstrated any professionalism. One company said they would come and quote but didn’t show up, the other two didn’t bother returning my messages / phone calls.The guys from Frontier that did my work were polite, friendly and very efficient!

I don't normally write reviews but these guys did a great job and was a very reasonable price. They were on time, were very quick but also careful of the surroundings. They did a very thorough clean up at the end and the five remaining tree stumps were cut right down low and neat. These guys obviously take pride in their work so deserve this review.
