What Types of Pruning Are There?

Tree pruning, tree shaping and tree lopping services encapsulate a range of tree care practices, including: Crown lifting (removing the lower branches) Crown thinning (increasing light and air permeation) Crown reduction (reducing the overall size, an alternative to the tree removal process) Weight reduction (reducing the width of the crown) Selective pruning (having certain branches of the tree removed) Clearance pruning (ensuring branches are clear of obstacles such as houses or neighbouring properties as an alternative to tree removal) Formative pruning (ensuring a strong structure and shape to prevent issues down the line) Remedial pruning (removing any weak or damaged elements to ensure future growth) Dead wooding (removing all dead or dying branches)

How Much is Tree Pruning?

The cost of pruning, trimming and lopping trees varies depending on the type of tree and its size. The larger the tree and the more work that needs doing, the more expensive the job will likely be. Additional charges will be added on if you require possum guarding and clearance pruning to prevent animals from accessing the tree or tree bracing to strengthen a weakened tree.

How Much Does Tree Removal Cost?

Are you wondering “how much is tree stump removal and tree removal?” The cost of the job will vary based on the size, accessibility and overall condition of the tree. We can conduct a free health and hazard assessment which allows us to assess trees, after which we can formulate an appropriate strategy and give you a more accurate answer to the question “how much does tree removal cost?”

When is The Best Time for Hedge Trimming?

After they are planted, formative pruning is vital to establish a hedge’s shape and structure. For deciduous hedges, this is generally done after planting and regularly during the first two years of establishment. For evergreens, the first pruning should be done in the spring after planting and then throughout the first two years of establishment. During this time, regular clipping may be needed to remove any stray foliage and promote new growth. Maintenance trimming for hedges will depend on the type of tree, plant or shrub you use. You’ll want to trim deciduous hedges twice a year: once after spring and again in early autumn. Evergreen hedges will only need pruning once in the summer. Lilly pilly, a common hedge in Australia, should be trimmed towards the end of winter or the beginning of spring to maintain their health. When in doubt, it is always best to consult an expert. Our team of hedge trimmers will be happy to help you devise a trimming schedule based on your specific hedge species and your desired outcome.

Over time, a weak tree can be brought down by storms, high winds, and even the weight of its own foliage and branches. To ensure it can stand a chance, a specially designed tree support system is a must. Traditionally, cable bracing was performed by drilling steel pylons into a tree or tunneling cables. Today, there are many options available, meaning that you can find a tree cable system that effectively mimics a tree’s natural growth while giving it the ability to support its own weight. Our tree cabling and bracing services are designed to encourage natural growth, allowing branches to bend and move as needed.
