Palm and Tree Services are specialists in the removal of large and difficult palms and trees.
A wide variety of methods can be used, each dependent on the location and the condition of the tree. In many cases a combination of methods are used.
Prior to commencement you should ensure local council has approved the work. In some instances written approval must be obtained, so please check with your local authority. If you require an arborist report or tree assessment then we also provide that service.
