Lennox Head Tree Care

Lennox Head Tree Care has been assisting locals for more than ten years, working out of Lennox Head on the Ballina coast. The crew are fully qualified arborists and fully qualified tree climbers, and there is an Associate Diploma in Horticulture behind the advice, which is a broader grounding than tree work on its own.

The company calls itself green minded, and that is more than a slogan. There are wildlife consultants on staff who assess vegetation and wildlife activity before work starts on environmentally sensitive sites, which counts for a lot on a Northern Rivers block where a hollow in an old tree may well be occupied.

Tree removal, tree lopping and pruning and thinning make up most of the day to day work, with palm tree removal handled as its own line and stump grinding to finish a job off. Mulching and chipping processes the material where it falls rather than trucking it out whole. Land clearing is there for blocks that need to come back to bare ground.

Emergency storm work runs around the clock. The business is open 24 hours, seven days, and the emergency response covers clearing fallen trees, securing unstable branches, and assessing what else is likely to come down once the weather has passed. Insurance work is handled as part of that, which is where most serious storm jobs end up.

There is a commercial side as well. Commercial maintenance and tree management for building sites are offered to project managers, real estate companies and body corporate groups, and arborist reports are written for the situations that need an opinion on paper. The site also keeps a page on council requirements, a nod to the fact that removals in these shires often need approval before a saw comes out.

The service area covers Lennox Head, Ballina, Alstonville, Evans Head, Bangalow, Byron Bay, Mullumbimby and Ocean Shores. Assessments and quotes are free. Phone 0427 619 616 at any hour.
