About Us

Our History

Hauraki Tree Services was formed as a partnership between Luke Stanton and Devon Lydford to create a specialist arborist company based on 20 years of experience in Arboriculture.


Luke has been an arborist his entire life with work experience in both NZ and the UK. Having previously owned and operated a successful arborist company in Auckland for 12 Years, setting up another company servicing the Hauraki/Thames region was an exciting prospect.


Devon’s background has been in forestry, residential tree work and firewood supply. Forming Hauraki Tree Services means combining complementary skill sets with an overall goal of delivering a safe and efficient service. We’re owner-operators, giving us the competitive edge as we do all the work ourselves.
