Affordable Palm & Tree Maintenance

A coconut dropping out of a mature palm will write off a car bonnet, and it does not care what else is underneath it. De-nutting is the one job we put a price on up front: $80 plus GST a palm, and that includes clearing out the dead fronds and carting away every bit of greenwaste the job makes. Affordable Palm & Tree Maintenance is Rick and Laura Burton's family business, run out of Clifton Beach with local subcontractors, fully insured and licensed, with knowledgeable arborists doing the work.

Palms up here grow in some awkward positions, and so do the trees, which is why the gear matters more than the sales pitch. Where a palm can be dropped safely we fell it; where it cannot, a qualified arborist climbs it and dismantles it in pieces. For anything on elevated or sloped land, or sitting somewhere a truck will never get to, we bring in elevated work platforms, cranes and an all terrain vehicle. Our stump grinder was chosen the same way: big enough to chew through large hardwood stumps, small enough to fit through a standard pool gate, so a stump in a fenced backyard is not the problem people expect it to be.

Nothing has to leave the property unless you want it to. Our on-site chipping turns the day's greenwaste into fresh mulch that stays in your garden for nothing, or we take it away, and either way it is already in the price. If you have done the pruning yourself and are looking at the pile, our greenwaste removal starts from a one hour minimum charge, and we sell and deliver mulch as well. Cyclone preparation comes around every year in Far North Queensland and the quote and the advice for it are free, so get Rick out to look at the rotting trees, the flimsy overhanging branches and the over leaning palms while there is still time to do something about them.

We look after residential, commercial and body corporate properties across Cairns and the Far North Queensland region, taking in the Cairns beaches, Smithfield and Redlynch. One resort has had us back for years now, and we work around resting hours and keep the noise down, which is what keeps that sort of client. When the wind has already done the damage, our 24 hour emergency service covers emergency tree cutting and removals and storm or cyclone clean up day or night, and the mobile is answered around the clock. Pensioners get a discount on everything we do. Ring 0414 608 595 for a free quote, and compare it with the others while you are at it.
