Professional tree care,
rooted in experience.
For over 15 years, Green Tree Felling has been the trusted choice for homeowners, estates, and businesses across Cape Town.
Built from the ground up, one tree at a time.
Green Tree Felling started in 2009 as a two-person operation in Cape Town. Founder Thabo Mabaso, a qualified arborist with a background in forestry science, saw that homeowners needed a tree service they could genuinely trust, one that combined technical skill with transparent pricing and real accountability.
Today, we operate across the greater Cape Town area with a team of certified arborists, dedicated equipment operators, and ground crew. We handle everything from routine pruning to complex emergency removals, and we bring the same care to a garden hedge as we do to a 30-metre eucalyptus.
Our growth has been entirely organic, built on referrals and repeat clients who know that when they call Green Tree Felling, the job gets done right.
What We Stand For
These principles guide every decision we make, from the first call to the final cleanup.
Safety First
Every job starts and ends with safety. We follow strict protocols, use proper PPE, and never cut corners.
Precision
We plan every cut. Sectional felling, rigging, and crane-assisted removal ensure controlled outcomes.
Client Care
We treat every property as if it were our own. Transparent communication from quote to cleanup.
Environmental Responsibility
We recycle green waste, recommend replanting where possible, and respect protected species regulations.
Professionalism
Uniformed teams, marked vehicles, on-time arrivals, and thorough site cleanup on every job.
Quality Guaranteed
Our reputation is built on consistent quality. We stand behind every piece of work we do.
Your property is in safe hands.
We carry comprehensive public liability insurance and full workman's compensation cover. Every team member is trained in safe work procedures, first aid, and equipment operation.
Our equipment is professionally maintained and serviced regularly. We invest in the best tools — from precision chainsaws to industrial stump grinders and crane trucks — because the right equipment makes every job safer and more efficient.
We provide proof of insurance on request and are happy to meet with you on-site before any work begins to walk through our safety plan.
