Tree removal services

Trees are a precious resource however, like all living things, they have a natural life expectancy. Sometimes trees become diseased or may sustain structural damage that makes them unsafe.

Often residents want to plant a new garden, build an extension or pave the area. Older trees can cause damage to property foundations and unground pipes.

Unfortunately, in some cases, a problem tree can’t be fixed by pruning or removing dead branches and no longer is an asset to your garden or the environment. If so, the tree must be removed.

Whatever the reason for tree removal, we can help. As qualified arborists and horticulturists, we can safely remove trees of any size and grind the stump, leaving your property ready for whatever you’ve got planned.

We will ensure the complete removal of even the largest, most difficult tree with no disruption to your property.

Tree trimming and pruning

There are numerous reasons why trees need to be trimmed.  Sometimes it’s to open up or enhance a view, let more light into the home or garden, or improve the appearance or design aesthetics of the tree.

At times, tree trimming is necessary to remove hazardous, diseased, or damaged branches and prevent damage to people, animals and property.

Tree trimming, however, is dangerous and can result in serious injury, even death. That’s why it’s paramount that you always utilise the skills and experience of an accredited arborist and trusted tree services company for all your trimming and pruning requirements.

When done correctly, tree trimming can improve the health of a tree, prolonging its life. Pruning improves air circulation, giving leaves and branches the fresh air they need for survival and growth. It should always be done by a qualified professional who understands tree health.

Tree lopping / tree topping

When choosing a ‘tree lopping company’ you should avoid using ones that advertise ‘topping’ as a service provided. Professional arborists know topping (sometimes called ‘tree lopping’) is harmful to trees and is not an acceptable practice.

Banksia Arborcare is a reputable and highly experienced business in the tree industry with a great understanding of the negative effects ‘tree lopping’ can have on your trees and the wider environment.

As professional and qualified arborists and horticulturist, we don’t undertake any ‘tree lopping’ and don’t recommend employing tree loppers that don’t have arboriculture qualifications due to the detrimental impact they have on the environment.

Tree stump grinding

Sometimes there’s no alternative but to remove trees on your property. When that happens, the last thing you want is an unsightly tree stump left behind.

Remaining tree stumps can pose a myriad of problems.  Not only are they unsightly, but they’re a potential trip hazard.  The stump attracts pests, including ants, termites, and funghi which can spread to other trees and property. Large stumps can interfere with your plans for planting, garden landscaping or paving.

We’ll remove your tree stump quickly and efficiently, and complete a thorough clean-up, leaving the area ready for landscaping or whatever you’ve got planned.

No matter the size of the stump or where it is, our stump grinding machinery creates a fine mulch that can be used throughout the garden, leaving you a new area for replanting.

We conduct stump grinding that is environmentally conscious at all times. Giving you peace of mind knowing we are a reliable and dedicated business that continually endeavours to meet our customer’s specific needs.

Additionally, head arborist and Banksia Arborcare business owner, Chris Allchin, can assist you by advising what trees and plants you may consider planting that are more conducive to your garden plans and family needs.
