Types of tree services
Tree Pruning
Trees may require pruning due to outgrowing their space; overgrown branches; proximity to power lines, services and buildings; storm damage; disease; public safety; invase roots, or the tree nearing the end of it's life cycle.
Various tree pruning techniques are available, that focus on the removal of non-essential decaying, dead, defective and non-productive branches, resulting in a better-looking and healthier tree.
Deadwood Pruning involves careful and selective removal of a tree's decaying, dead, defective, weak and non-productive branches. This reduces tree hazards and improves safety by strengthening tree structure and removing weak limbs that may fall during strong winds or storms.
Crown Thinning improves sunlight infiltration and air flow, which is particularly important in overgrown trees.
Crown Raising is the removal of a tree's lower branches to clear views for signs or buildings, and increase clearances on paths and roads.
Occassionally, a problem with a tree cannot be fixed by pruning and tree Removal is required.
Tree Removal
Every tree is either a liability or an asset of the property. Those trees assessed to be liabilities, generally have a valid reason for removal. This could be due to extensive storm or lightning damage, disease, death, age, impending contruction works or root invasion.
The cost of removing trees on the Gold Coast varies, depending on a number of factors such as the tree's location, species, size, equipment needs, condition, hazards and risk concerns, access availability and time required to complete. Please contact one of our arborists for an obligation free site inspection, appraisal and quote.
Stumps - grind or remove
Tree stumps might be somewhat of a novelty at first, however, the longer they remain in your yard, the more they become a nuisance.
Tree stumps are unsightly, hazardous obstacles that attract weeds growing around their edges and termites chewing on their decaying timber. Whether it's for aesthetic, safety or practical reasons, sooner or later the stump should be removed.
Australian hardwood tree stumps take over 20 years to decompose or be eaten by termites. Unless you are an extremely patient person, there's two options remaining - dig the stump out with large machinery or grind it down below ground level with a stump grinder.
Stump Removal involves the expensive hire of a large excavator to dig out the root ball and roots. This is a very intrusive exercise that will require disposing of the roots and rootball along with extensive restoration work on the grounds.
Stump Grinder "shaves" the height of the stump to below ground level. This is cheaper and less intensive than removal, with minimal damage to the surrounding yard. Over time, the remaining portion of the stump below ground will decompose, along with the roots. The ground will sinK in parts, and require annual top dressing for many years.
