Since Kingston is residential in nature and the suburb has been developed for many decades it is important to regularly do lopping to your trees. Tree lopping is the process of of pruning/ trimming numerous sections of a tree- this can include limbs, branches or even shortening trunks. This ensures that your tree will continue to be healthy, and to avoid potential damage to homes from fallen branches and limbs. We recommend you let a professional to do any tree lopping that you are not comfortable doing yourself to ensure personal safety. For all arborist services call Treesafe today. We would love to help you!

It is important to note that a council permit may be required in order to remove a tree depending on whether it is protected by a Vegetation Protection Order (VPO). You will need to contact your local council for more information on removing a tree. Alternatively, you can ring Treesafe for more information or advice on VPO’s. See our contact list below:
