Assessing Tree Health and Protection

Ensuring the wellbeing of your trees is crucial for their long-term survival. Our certified arborists possess the expertise to assess tree health and implement the necessary steps for safeguarding them. Whether it’s pruning, trimming, or full removal, we’ve got you covered. If you encounter any of the following issues, do not hesitate to reach out to us:

1. Widowmaker: A Potentially Deadly Risk

In the world of forestry, the term “widowmaker” describes a detached branch that remains precariously suspended above the ground, supported by other branches. These perilous limbs present a significant hazard, capable of falling at any moment and causing severe harm or even fatalities to anyone below. In Australia, widowmaker branches contribute to over 10% of chainsaw-related fatalities each year. It is of utmost importance to rely on the expertise of a professional tree service like ours to safely and effectively handle widowmaker branches.

2. Dead Wood: Sign of Decay 

The shedding of large sections of bark from a branch is a clear indication of dead wood. Furthermore, if a branch shows no signs of new growth during the spring, it is deceased and should be removed. If more than half of the tree consists of dead wood, it may be necessary to replace it entirely. In such cases, you might want to consider planting a new tree before removing the older one, allowing the replacement time to establish and thrive.

3. Addressing Foundation, Sewer Line, or Septic Tank Issues

The root systems of large trees can pose a threat to a home’s foundation and cause leaks or blockages in sewer lines and septic tanks. Trimming back invasive roots can serve as a temporary fix, but there comes a point when tree removal becomes inevitable. Our arborists can evaluate the situation and determine the best course of action to safeguard your property.

Maintenance and Planting for a Flourishing Tree Population

Even if you haven’t encountered any of the potentially damaging conditions mentioned above, regular professional maintenance is essential to prevent future problems. Prior to the arrival of spring, consider scheduling a pruning visit to eliminate any dead, diseased, or hazardous branches before the tree enters its growth cycle. Delaying these prunings increases the risk of disease and pest infestation.

Late winter and early spring also provide an ideal window for planting new trees, giving them a full season to establish and flourish. Moreover, we offer soil analysis services to assist you in selecting the best fertilizer for your trees.

Determining the Right Time for Tree Removal

Recognising when it’s time to remove a tree can be a challenging decision. Most of us hesitate to take such a drastic step. However, when the need for tree removal arises, our team of certified arborists is here to assist. We will assess, diagnose, and handle your trees with care and precision. Whether you have diseased or dangerous trees, trees obstructing construction or pathways, pest infestations, or damage caused by wind or storms, we will develop a personalized plan to address your requirements. Our experienced experts will ensure that the job is executed safely without causing harm to surrounding trees or property.

Customised Cost Estimates to Suit Your Specific Needs

The cost of tree removal is influenced by several factors. These include the tree’s location, height, trunk width, number of large or high branches, and how close it is to utility lines. These considerations can influence the final price of removing a tree. Feel free to reach out to us at any time to schedule an on-site estimate tailored to your specific requirements.

Don’t Take Unnecessary Risks – Stanhope Gardens’ Leading Arborists

While it may be tempting to save money by attempting tree removal on your own, it’s crucial to remember that it is a hazardous task, even for skilled professionals. Predicting how branches and trunks will fall can be challenging, and without proper experience, the risk of serious injury increases significantly. Chainsaws and other tree removal equipment can be unwieldy, and even a small mistake can have life-altering consequences. The presence of nearby utility lines further amplifies the risks. Why take chances when you can hire a professional to get the job done safely and efficiently?

If you decide to outsource the job, exercise caution in selecting a service provider. Many self-proclaimed “professionals” lack the necessary experience and training, relying solely on a few online tree-felling videos. Extensive training is necessary for safe and precise tree removal. The last thing you want is to entrust this task to an unskilled amateur, putting your property at risk of expensive damage. Tree work is inherently dangerous, with numerous people suffering injuries or fatalities each year from falls, falling objects, and electrocution.
