Tree Pruning
Less is more
Pruning a tree is a great way to minimise risk and transform your aerial space. Some other hidden benefits include;
-
Allowing more light into your yard🌞
-
Reducing the weight of oversized branches💪
-
Restoring or improving a view👀
-
Shaping the overall tree canopy🗽
-
Providing more space in your yard⚽🥅
The goal is to balance your vision with the needs of the tree. They are a great feature in open spaces, providing many benefits, but incorrect pruning may lead to a space with no tree at all.
Accessing trees is dangerous and there are many risks that are not obvious, don't end up in hospital, let me help you do it safely!
I am able to assist with pruning of trees up to 40m (~120ft) in height. If you're not sure, send me a message and we can discuss.
If I am unable to help, I can refer you to someone that I would trust with my own trees.

Tree Removal
An expert in small to medium tree removal
Trees are important (check out why), but if your tree(s) must go, let me help you do it safely. I understand the satisfaction in DIY, but working on trees is dangerous.
Don't think so? Watch this
I can help with trees up to 10m (~30ft) tall and 0.5m (~1.5ft) in diameter. If in doubt, send a picture via e-mail and I'll let you know if I can help. If not, I can refer you to someone who I believe can help you.

Tree Health Restoration
Hang on, help is on the way!
This may shock you, but trees do NOT die quickly or for 'no reason'.
If your tree has suddenly become 'sick', (unless it is very old - senescent) something in it's immediate environment has changed dramatically.
If your tree still has access to sunlight and oxygen (unless you tried to cover it with a very big blanket)...
9 times out of 10 it has something to do with
the soil.
A dying tree doesn't necessarily have to be removed, I can work with you to attempt to restore your tree. At the very least, you'll learn something new about trees!

"that's not my job bro"
is what most will say. Not Arborista.

Told you, not your typical arborist.

Whilst there are some great tree services out there, some companies;
