Frequently asked questions
Local answersWhat happens after I send a request?
We use the details to route the request by service, suburb and provider coverage, then pass it to a suitable local provider when there is a good fit.
Do you service outside of Launceston?
Yes. Some providers cover the Tamar Valley, Meander Valley, Northern Midlands, and nearby northern towns.
What should I include in my request?
Add photos only if they help explain the job; avoid sharing private documents or unsafe images.
Do I need an arborist instead of a gardener?
Use an arborist for tall trees, dangerous limbs, tree removal, stump grinding, tree reports, work near structures or powerlines, and specialist pruning. Use a gardener for mowing, hedges, weeding and light garden tidy-ups.
Is stump grinding included with tree removal?
Not always. Ask whether stump grinding, root flare, access, chip removal and stump grindings are included or priced as a separate item.
Can an arborist help after storm damage?
Yes. Send photos of broken branches, split trunks, leaning trees, damaged fences or roofs, and any powerline risk so the crew can plan safe access and exclusions.
Do tree removals need council approval?
Sometimes. Approval can depend on tree species, size, location, heritage overlays, protected-tree rules and whether the tree is dangerous. Ask the arborist what checks apply before work starts.
