Baker Tree Services provide reliable tree trimming services and affordable hedge trimming throughout Auckland
Tree trimming is potentially hazardous. Pruning needs to be completed by tree workers who have the necessary training and experience, and are familiar with the techniques and hazards of this work.
Baker Tree Services arborists are tree surgeons and tree felling experts, providing safe tree and hedge trimming services throughout the greater Auckland region, including Rodney. Not only do we protect you and your property from damage, but also your trees. With this in mind, we don't use climbing spurs or irons when pruning live trees. In the unlikely event that it's needed, your property is covered by our comprehensive public liability insurance.
There are a variety of safety and aesthetic reasons why a homeowner or property manager might invest in a professional hedge or tree trimmer. Primary reasons for pruning include removing dead branches, removing crowded or rubbing limbs for the best form, eliminating hazards, and improving sunlight and air movement throughout the tree.
Palm trees can be difficult to manage without proper care. Baker Tree Services are able to safely remove or care for your palm trees, removing palm fronts, shaping the bowl or by removing the tree and stump grinding if necessary.
Done properly, pruning can maintain good tree health and structure. It can also enhance the beauty and economic value of your landscape. If trees are left to grow unchecked, they can develop in patterns which cause weight and balance problems later on.
With regular tree trimming on your Auckland property, you not only tidy up the look of the foliage, but also encourage the tree to grow in a balanced and healthy way.
Professional hedge trimming
In addition to tree pruning, Baker Tree Services also offers efficient and competitively priced hedge trimming services.
It’s important to have hedge trimming done by a qualified professional, especially when the hedge is older and more established, as only experienced staff can deal with any problems with the base of the hedge. They will also be able to diagnose any health issues and recommend solutions.Chipping
When tree debris is chipped or mulched, the resulting mulch can be left onsite for later use or removed. Find out more information about the benefits of mulch or order mulch for your garden.Tree cabling and bracing
Cabling and bracing provide extra safety support for branches and limbs with weak attachments. These systems are especially useful in protecting your valuable specimen trees from splitting stems or trunks and tearing limbs.
Multi-stemmed trees are particularly vulnerable to damange, such as pohutukawa, liquidambar and oak trees. Trees that have not received proper care and attention either in the nursery or after planting can also be a problem. Often branches or limbs with weak attachments are neglected and left to grow larger, rather than being removed at an early stage to let the stronger, better formed branches and stems dominate.
Baker Tree Services can help with:
Bracing - "propping up" of very large, heavy drooping limbs, for support. The less weight or strain on the branch union, the less likely it is to fail.
A correctly installed cabling or bracing system has the strength and stability to minimise against this problem and protect against unnecessary damage.
Emergency tree care
Natural disasters often cause extensive damage to plant life, especially to large or vulnerable trees which have already been weakened by drought or stress. Large branches can break off roughly, blocking footpaths, roads and driveway access. Trees that have been damaged in a storm or fire need urgent attention from a qualified arborist to assess the level of damage and determine what remedial action is necessary.
In the event of storm damage, branch or tree failure, Baker Tree Services has the skills and experience needed to make the scene safe, quickly securing or removing dangerous trees. In our 25-plus years in this industry, we have assisted a number of emergency services teams to clean up sites quickly and efficiently, removing debris and caring for viable trees left behind.
We strongly recommend having regular inspections done as part of a routine maintenance programme on your trees, even if it's only every two or three years. This is because when a storm hits, it might be hard to get hold of us, due to heavy demand for our services.
Have your trees inspected and cared for before disaster strikes. By pruning correctly and regularly, you can prevent a significant amount of damage both to the tree and to surrounding areas. As go-to providers of emergency tree services on the North Shore and across Auckland, we can assess potential hazards and plan the necessary maintenance.
