Tree Cutting and Removal Services
Are the trees on your section blocking your sun? Do you have a dead tree that’s unsafe? Are the branches on your trees creating a direct path into your house for rodents? Karl’s Tree Services are certified arborists with years of experience in safely cutting down trees and pruning overgrown branches. Our tree cutting and removal is an end to end service, removing any problem trees or branches and clearing the waste from your property. If you prefer to keep the waste wood, we will cut it ready to be split. We even provide a wood chipping service – you can choose to keep the mulch or we can take it away to green fill.

Sectional Takedowns
To remove a tree in a confined space or near infrastructure generally requires breaking it into sections and bringing it down piece by piece. This is done by using a rope and pulley system to remove select pieces.
Clear Felling
Clear felling is the first option that is considered as it is the quickest way of removing an entire tree, providing there is sufficient space to safely use this method. A ‘scarf cut’ at the base of the tree allows for control of the tree as it comes down.
Crane Assisted Felling
Certain trees or palms which are in complex locations are felled by crane. The crane removes large pieces of tree, making the process faster than a sectional takedown.
