TLO Tree Services

Tim Oliver runs TLO Tree Services, and the number and the email on this listing are his, so the person who prices your job is the person answerable for it. Every job is carried out by a fully trained arborist, and our focus sits on ecological sustainability and the native treescape as much as on getting the work done. That shows up in what we offer as well as how we talk about it: alongside the cutting, we install possum boxes, nest boxes and other habitat in the trees we look after.

Our patch runs from the suburbs out into the rural country either side of the border, taking in Canberra, Queanbeyan, Yass, Gundaroo, Wamboin, Bywong, Bungendore and Braidwood. The tree pruning we take on runs from lifting large or dangerous limbs off a structure or a high traffic area to clearing out dead, diseased and damaged wood to build general health and vigour back into a tree, reducing weight before the storms and thinning a canopy for light and airflow. Where a tree has died, rotted through, been damaged in weather or simply been planted in the wrong spot, our tree removals include the clean up, and the wood and mulch are yours to keep or ours to take away, whichever you would rather.

Some trees cannot be climbed safely, and that is what our EWP is for. A cherry picker puts the operator alongside the limbs without asking a compromised trunk to carry anyone, which is how our dangerous tree removal work gets done. The same plant goes out on machine wet hire with an operator if you need it on your own site, either the EWP on its own or the skid steer, truck and chipper combo together. For emergency work we are on call when a tree fails, and you can have the whole thing taken out or the remaining stem made safe.

Stumps are ground out, greenwaste goes through the chipper and either stays on your garden as mulch or leaves on the truck, and our hedging work keeps things in order without anyone from your household going up a ladder. Where a tree is ailing rather than dangerous, our pest control and management identifies what is actually wrong with it and puts a treatment plan together. If you are putting something new in, our advice on tree planting accounts for your soils, structures and microclimates, and we can supply, transport and plant the tree as well.
