Tree services for insurance builders and claims managers

The tree specialist that keeps your repair moving

When a tree is part of an insurance claim, you need a contractor who turns up, makes the site safe and gets the tree off the critical path. We work alongside insurance builders, assessors and loss adjusters across NSW and interstate. We handle the tree scope so you can manage the repair.

Built for the way claims run

What insurance builders get from us

You are managing a repair, a policyholder and a timeline. The tree contractor should make that easier, not harder. Here is what we bring to every insurance job.

Make-safe to final clean-up

We handle the tree scope on the claim

Insurance tree work is the make-safe and removal of damaged or fallen trees carried out as part of a property insurance claim, coordinated with the insurance builder managing the repair. It usually starts with make-safe works to remove the immediate hazard, followed by full removal, stump grinding and clean-up once the scope is agreed.

Dixons Trees works with insurance builders, assessors and loss adjusters across NSW and interstate. We have handled storm and emergency tree work since 2009. We work to your scope, reference your job on our quote and coordinate with you through the repair.

Where we fit on a claim

When insurance builders call us in?

If a claim involves a tree, that is our part of the job. Here is when we are called in.

Storm and fallen-tree damage

A tree has come down on infrastructure. We attend, make the site safe, mitigate the risk of further damage and remove the tree under control.

Make-safe before assessment or repair

The site has to be safe before anyone can scope or start the repair. We carry out make-safe works quickly so the claim can move forward. On the ground assessments done within 24 hours right across NSW.

A tree on or against a structure

Removing a tree resting on a roof or wall without causing further damage takes proper rigging and qualified arborists. That is the work we are set up for.

Removal and clean-up within the repair scope

The tree component of a larger repair needs to be completed on time and to scope. We coordinate with you and other trades so the tree work does not hold up the repair.

A panel contractor has let you down

When the contractor you used cannot turn up or does not present well to the policyholder, it reflects on you. We are the specialist you call when the tree work has to be done on time and on budget.

Reliable, professional, set up for it

We protect your brand by insuring quality

Make-safe tree work isn’t your average job. The contractor you send is standing in for you in front of the policyholder. If they turn up late, leave a mess or cannot be relied on, that lands on you. We know that; it is deeply important to us, and we work accordingly.

We bring our own trucks, excavators, chippers and rigging, so we are not waiting on hire equipment or subcontractors to attend a make-safe. We give you a clear, itemised quote referenced to your job, keep the policyholder informed and leave the site clean. That is what keeps your client happy with you.

If you run a panel and need a tree specialist on it, we are set up to be that contractor.
