Specialist Tree Lopping Equipment and Knowledge
Traditionally in Brisbane the term tree lopping meant cutting the
tree down to ground level, we refer to that as tree removal. If you wanted your tree cut in half (refering to trees not shrubs), like say cutting a 100' gum tree down to 50' high that
is called topping within the industry ... but quite a few people do incorrectly refer to that as tree lopping also.
Whether we are tree lopping, pruning or aerial inspecting trees the job is dangerous. For personal safety we use special ropes and working saddles. Some ropes have a wire core inside them to aid in
stiffness for using in a tree and some protection against chainsaw cuts.
For rigging we use rated ropes, pulleys, shackles and devices. The forces exerted on
equipment can exceed the weight of the cut piece up to 10x!
Knowing how and where to cut is also vital. To complicate matters different trees react in different ways. Some trees are quite snappy and brittle whilst others, like pine, can be quite pliable and
hang on. With pruning it is imperative that the correct cuts are made to assist in the wound defence. We are qualified arborists and know the cuts.

Qualified Arborist Report - Tree Care - Tree Information
We are also skilled in report writing and assessing trees. If your trees need some TLC we can help. If council requires an Arborist Report, we can write one. If your trees
require pruning (spikeless climbing) no problem, we have the training, equipment, skills and experience .... do yourself a favour and have qualified professionals like us look after your
trees.
Some of the specialist techniques for improving the condition and vigour of your trees is aeration and soil treatment followed by mulching. We have a unique custom made tool which probes the soil and
delivers a blast of compressed air. Roots need air and heavy clay soils or compacted soils can be improved with this technique. The probe can also deliver a variety of soil treatments improving the
growing conditions. Many people forget that what you see above stems from below. So some die back or pest infestation often relates back to the root system which can now be treated. The probe can
reach depths up to 0.5m which is ample considering 95% of the root system is within the top 0.3m of soil.
In almost 10 years of operation, millions of dollars of work performed, never have we had an insurance claim, now that's a record to be proud of. Enjoy the site, we believe this is one of
the best so there's plenty to see and learn.
