Removing trees is a dangerous and highly complex task. For the safety of everyone, we do not recommend attempting any tree removal of any size by anyone other than trained professionals. Arborists have the appropriate safety gear, equipment and training needed to safely remove trees. Tim the Tree-Man only prunes to Australian Standards, AS 4373-2007, and does not partake in 'tree lopping'. Correct pruning of a tree is crucial for the health, safety and longevity of the tree. Our climbers will not use spikes on any tree unless it's to be removed.
