Kapiti Coast arborist and tree surgeon, based in Paraparaumu
Tree removal, large and dangerous trees, pruning and storm damage work across Paraparaumu, Waikanae, Raumati, Ōtaki and Paekākāriki. Qualified arborists, fully insured, free quotes.

Your local Kapiti Coast tree specialists
Tree Rangers is based in Paraparaumu, so the Kapiti Coast is home turf rather than a service area we drive to. Call-outs are faster, and the crew already knows the local species, what the coastal wind and salt do to a tree, and what the Kāpiti Coast District Council expects when a notable or protected tree is involved. James Holden has 11 years on the tools and holds EFTPC certification. The business is Site Wise Gold accredited, fully insured, and rated 4.9 on Google. We take the jobs other crews turn down. Large trees, trees close to houses, boundaries and power lines, and storm damaged trees that need making safe before anything else can happen. Every job starts with a free on-site quote and an honest answer about whether the tree actually needs to come out.

Based in Paraparaumu, so we reach Kapiti jobs faster than crews driving up from Wellington

Large and dangerous tree removal, including trees close to houses, boundaries and power lines

Coastal tree care for salt spray and wind exposed sections, from Paekākāriki through to Ōtaki
Kapiti Coast areas we cover
Paraparaumu
Our home base. We know the tree species and the terrain here better than anywhere, and Paraparaumu jobs get the fastest response times we offer.
Waikanae
Established sections and bush-edge properties backing onto native reserve. We handle the big established trees Waikanae is full of, including gums and macrocarpa close to houses.
Raumati Beach
Beachside sections where salt spray and onshore wind take a steady toll. Coastal trees need checking more often than inland ones, and we know what the early damage looks like.
Ōtaki
Northern Kapiti, with a mix of township sections, lifestyle blocks and rural properties. Shelterbelts, section clearance and large tree work are the jobs we do most up here.
Paekākāriki
Tight coastal village sections at the southern end, often with steep access and limited room to drop anything. Most trees here have to be climbed and rigged down in sections.
Paraparaumu Beach
Exposed coastal streets where wind loading is the main issue. Crown thinning and reduction usually solves it without taking the tree out altogether.
Te Horo
Lifestyle blocks and rural sections between Ōtaki and Peka Peka. Shelterbelt trimming, windbreak work and large-scale clearing are the regular jobs out this way.
Peka Peka
Semi-rural coastal properties with sandy soils and heavy wind exposure. Root stability is worth watching here, and we will tell you honestly if a tree is becoming a risk.
What Wellingtonians say about us
James Holden is an experienced arborist who has been looking after my Waikanae property for the second year.
I am very impressed with his professionalism and ability to shape trees and hedges.
As a result, my son and daughter as well as my grandson have used his services. They are all very happy with the results
"We have hired Tree Rangers twice now to cut back and shape some very overgrown trees and have been very happy with their work. James is very knowledgeable and has given us some great advice. His team worked quickly and efficiently, despite the wet conditions both times!"
"James's knowledge of how to properly prune trees is excellent. His first visit a year ago was so well done we asked him to come again this year to maintain some of the previous work, as well as some hedges and trees on a different part of the property. He beautifully shaped and reduced our copper beech, silver birch and maple trees as well as several NZ natives. I highly recommend his work and he is a lovely guy to boot."
