Pruning trees allows for the removal of dead and diseased branches. It also improves the structure and health of your tree. Improve the shape of your tree Careful pruning by an experienced arborist can enhance the shape and form of a tree. We can even reduce a tree canopy all around to contain the overall size.

As trees age, branches can become week or decay. Branches don’t need strong winds to fall off. They can simply fall off at any time for no apparent reason. Imagine if your children were playing underneath!

Eliminate the risk of fines for encroaching on power lines
The Electricity Regulations 2003 (Hazards from Trees), require you to maintain a minimum distance, The Growth Limit Zone or GLZ, between your trees and the power lines to your property. Failure to do so can result in you being fined up to $10,000!

Tree pruning can help with all of these problems but it’s important to realise that you can’t simply cut trees and hope it will be OK. You are better off using an experienced arborist or tree specialist company.
