All trees are different and are located in different environments. Because there are so many variables, we are unable to give you an estimate without first assessing your trees. Our quotes are always no obligation and free of charge, so give our office a call today to arrange a time that suits you.
A simply written quote and/or verbal advice from ACT Tree Felling is free of charge. We do also offer detailed reports, which are chargeable, however, this will be based on variables such as the number of trees being assessed or how much time is involved in compiling the report.
Falling branches is a risk of homeowners often worry about, especially during storms and high winds. The risk of this happening can be reduced by proper maintenance of your trees. If you have had a branch fail, tree fall or are concerned about the safety of trees around your home, one of our arborists can meet with you to advise you of the best and safest action.
The ACT government has regulations around the removal and pruning of significant trees in the Canberra region. ACT Tree Felling can advise you if your tree is bound by these regulations and even apply on your behalf to the tree protection unit should it be required.
If you are a property owner in Canberra, it is your responsibility to keep your trees away from power lines. This means a clearance of 1m from service lines and power poles, 1.5m from low voltage and 2m from high voltage power lines. If you have received a notice to clear your power lines, you will need to contact an Evoenergy-accredited tree surgeon to carry out the necessary work. Our team at ACT Tree Felling are accredited to the highest level and we are experienced with clearing power lines.
ACT Tree Felling are Evoenergy-accredited tree surgeons. This means we are authorised and trained to work in close proximity to all types of power lines. Working near power lines can be a dangerous activity so you should only use an experienced and accredited tree services company to ensure your job is done right.
'Major pruning' or 'lopping' requires government approval and in most cases is not recommended due to the subsequent damage it causes to the tree afterwards. The misconception with lopping is that it will control and reduce the height and spread of a tree, but it actually has the opposite effect. The resulting new sprouts are far more numerous than normal new growth and grow so rapidly that the tree returns to its original height in a very short time – and with a far denser crown.
Tree surgery, in general, can be quite costly due to many factors, however the main reasons are: the expensive machinery and equipment that is required; the high insurance prices of a high-risk industry; and the extensive training and continual accreditation costs involved (i.e. arboriculture certification, Evoenergy accreditation, first aid and other workplace safety training). ACT Tree Felling provides high-quality work and we always charge a fair and competitive price for our service.
All of our tree climbers are either qualified arborists (min. cert. III) or are currently undertaking training within our company in conjunction with accredited arboriculture training conducted at CIT Canberra.
No, on most occasions we can work without anyone needing to be home, as long as we have good access to the trees and prior arrangements have been made for any pets. If you have very specific requests and want to be home to check that everything goes smoothly, we absolutely encourage you to stay at home and communicate with our arborists whilst the work is being done. That way we can ensure you are happy with our service before the job is complete.
