We’re your palm people — everything from pruning, cleaning to removing. We’ll shimmy up and spruce them up for you.

Our Arborist Services

 
 

General Pruning

Unpruned palms can be a safety hazard, not to mention unattractive. As new palm fronds grow, the old palm fronds dry out and turn brown, eventually hanging lifeless below the tree canopy.

We’ll scoot up and remove those ugly dead fronds, uplift the canopy and sculpt the trunk — transforming your tree into a tropical beauty

 

Palm Tree Canopy Cleaning

Palm trees can grow to significant heights, in some cases 100m tall. This makes flower, fruit, and seed pods challenging to access and remove yourself.

By using advanced arborists gear we’ll ensure your tree is pruned safely to ensure no damage to your palm and your property. We remove flower, fruit, and seed pods.

 

Trunk Skinning/Shaving

Skinning is the process of smoothing out the trunk and removing the stubs, or petioles. The process involves removing any dead fronds and working our way up the tree to a point where the young stubs are, this service only apply to Canary Island Date Palms and California/ Mexican Fan Palms.

 

Pest Guarding

Possums love your trees more than you do. Possum and rats can climb up your trees and nest in the canopy, feeding on the young leaves and fruit causing damage and heath stress to your trees, noise, and also leaving droppings. We can install pest guards that won’t damage your trees but keep the pests out.

 

General Tree Works

While our focus is on palm trees we climb and clean up any tree. Pruning, removing deadwood, and uplifting the canopy, and do your hedge, and we do this to Australian Standard “Pruning of Amenity Trees” AS4373-2007.

 

Tree and Palm Tree Removals

We’ll give you professional advice on the health and safety of your trees. If your tree is unhealthy, there is a likelihood that it might fail, the health condition of your tree is declining or it is causing damage to your property and threatening you or your neighbor, we can remove your tree and the stump if required. You may also need it removed for development reasons, in this case, you may require a permit for tree removals — you can check here.

 

Habitat Pruning

Or we can habitat prune your tree, which means we’ll prune all the high branches and reduce the tree to a certain height or point where it is unlikely it would pose a risk to you your property, or your neighbor. This means that your tree will be retained and it will be a nesting, sheltering, and safe refuge for many wildlife.

 

Stump Grinding

We will safely remove tree stumps from your property so that you can build, plant, and create a safe space where your tree once stood. Stump grinding uses machinery that requires access the size of a standard door. If your stumps are in raised garden beds, close to fences or property, or near gas and water pipes. stump grinding may not be possible.

 
 

“Our palms look like new! Filipe did a great job pruning and neatening our never-been-touched palm trees, in quite a tight space. The team is really safety conscious, but also fast and efficient, as well as careful to leave no mess behind. Definitely recommend.”
