About Us
We’re Jess and Wil, and we run Jungle Jess Tree Service. We’re fully qualified arborists, Level 3 and Level 5 certified. We built our name on the tough, technical work: the rigging, the tight access, and the big removals that take real skill.
Being good at the hard jobs is only half of it. We turn up when we say, quote a fixed price up front, and don’t pack up until your place is spotless. No call centre, no subcontractors. You get us and a crew of qualified climbing arborists, cutting to AS4373, the Australian Standard. And we assess before we cut, so nobody gets talked into a removal when a prune would have done.
Combined experience across rigging, dismantling and tight-access removals, the tough, technical work that takes real skill.
Real Gold Coast homeowners, landlords and body corporates. Not bought, not hype.
Written before we start. What you sign is what you pay.
Assessed first, quoted in writing, chipped as it comes down, and cleaned up before we leave.
The old way
Most Gold Coast homeowners dread hiring a tree service. Not because of the job. Because of the tradie. You’ve probably heard some of these before:
✗“Yeah mate, I’ll be there Tuesday.” Tuesday comes and goes. No call, no text, no show.
✗“It’s bigger than we thought, we’ll need another $800 to finish the job.”
✗Sawdust on the driveway. Branches in the gutter. Leaves in the pool. “Not our job to clean up.”
✗No insurance. No qualifications. Just a ute, a chainsaw and a promise.
✗Hidden extras on the final invoice that were never mentioned at quote time.
✗Unanswered calls the second something goes wrong on the job.
Why Jungle Jess
The tough, technical jobs: tight access, rigging, a tree with a pool on one side and a fence on the other. Here’s what sets us apart:
✓Qualified arborists, not loppers. Level 3 and Level 5 certified, cutting to AS4373.
✓A fixed written quote, on the spot. What you sign is what you pay. No surprise extras.
✓On time, every time. Booking confirmed the day before, and a call the morning of.
✓Spotless, every job. Clean-up is in every quote. We don’t pack up until your place is cleaner than we found it.
✓You get Jess and Wil. No call centre, no subcontractors.
✓Fully insured. Public liability and workers comp. Certificates on request.

We assess before we cut and recommend the right work for the tree, whether that’s a prune or a full removal.
Level 3 and Level 5 certified arborists, QAA members, fully insured.
Tough jobs
Before Jungle Jess, we spent years on the tough, technical jobs. Dead trees nobody wanted to climb. Trees leaning over a neighbour’s shed with no room to drop anything. That work taught us to rig and dismantle properly, because there was no other way to get those trees down without wrecking something. We still use it every week, on blocks with a pool on one side, a fence on the other, and a metre of clearance in between.
Our gear
An 18-inch 264hp chipper, an 18m³ mulch truck, and an Avant loader with a 360° grapple. It shifts timber like an excavator without chewing up your lawn, so fewer hours on site and a smaller invoice for you.
Pricing
No guessing games. Every job gets one fixed written price after we’ve seen the tree, with cleanup included. What you sign is what you pay, so there’s no running meter and no surprises.

Three promises, in writing on every quote. If we miss on any one of them, we make it right.






How it works
It’s simple, and that’s the point. You get in touch, we book a time that suits, and we come out to look at the tree. You get a fixed price in writing on the spot, with the cleanup included, plus a free health check on the rest of your trees while we’re there. Once it’s booked, we confirm the day before and phone you on the morning. On the day, everything’s chipped down as we work and the site’s left clean. Want the mulch for your garden beds? Say the word and it stays.
Projects
The best proof isn’t a review, it’s the work: a gum craned out over a roof, a palm sectioned down over a canal, a whole tree lifted off saturated ground after a storm. See all our work













Areas
Across the Gold Coast, coast to hinterland. Local pages for the suburbs we work in most:
Often, yes. Gold Coast City Council protects a lot of trees. Most trees on private land need council approval to remove or prune, with exemptions for things like distance from a fence, building or pool (scaled to your lot size) and recognised pest species. We check the mapping at the quote and tell you straight, so you don’t spend money on an application you might not need.
Usually same day. Call us on 0480 473 902 or fill in the form and we’ll come out for a free onsite quote, often within 24 hours. The quote is written, fixed and yours to keep, with no obligation to book.
Always. It’s part of the job, not a surprise extra. Everything’s chipped as it comes down and we don’t pack up until your place is cleaner than we found it. Want the mulch left for the garden? Plenty of people do, just say so.
Yes. Full public liability and workers compensation. We’re happy to send copies of our certificates before the job starts if you’d like to see them.
If the weather makes the job unsafe, we reschedule and call you the morning of. No charge, no hassle. Safety comes first, and we’d rather push a day than take a risk.

We’ll assess the job, give you a fixed written quote and book a date that works for you. No pressure. No obligation. Just a straight answer and a fair price.
