Real jobs, and how we approached them
Every tree and every site is different. These are real jobs from our own crew — what the problem was, how we handled it, and how it turned out.

A huge dead eucalypt stood on a hillside above homes, a driveway and the road. Climbing it wasn’t safe, so Tom worked from a hired spider lift instead.

A dead limb kept as a home for wildlife
A dead limb was due to come down for firewood. After a chat with a regular client who loves birdlife, we carved a nesting hollow into it instead.
An old cypress windbreak makes way for a native garden
An overgrown cypress windbreak along a rural driveway was removed, chipped and ground out to make way for a native garden that’s easier to manage.
A stubborn stump turned into a parking pad
The owner had been trying to burn this stump out for years and needed the space for parking. We ground it out and built up a gravel pad.
Stumps out before the drilling rig arrived
A builder needed stumps gone from a narrow side yard before foundation drilling started on the Monday. Big machines couldn’t get in; our grinder could.
Clearing a eucalyptus off the solar lights at Apollo Bay’s new roundabout
A eucalyptus at the new roundabout on Pascoe and Moore Streets was shading the solar panels on the street lights. We pruned it clear.
