Tree X Townsville

The trade we learned is the art and science of planting, caring for and maintaining individual trees, and we have been practising it around Townsville for more than 15 years. Tree X Townsville works out of Aitkenvale across residential and commercial properties, our landscapers are fully licensed, bonded and insured, and the phone is answered Monday to Sunday, around the clock.

Pruning is where we are fussiest, and there is a reason for it. Every cut is a wound and every leaf lost is photosynthetic potential taken off the tree, so tree pruning and shaping is only ever done here with a specific purpose in mind and with the minimum of live tissue removed. Done that way it helps a tree in a good many ways, and you end up with a healthier canopy and a garden that looks the way it should. Done for the sake of doing it, pruning takes more out of a tree than it ever puts back.

Coconuts de-nutted is a job that comes with the tropics, and it wants doing well before the nuts find a car, a roof or somebody's head. Where a tree has run its course, tree removal gets planned out properly before anything starts moving, which is what the tight suburban blocks around town demand of you. We do the opposite job just as often: tree planting, choosing and putting in trees that suit the position and the soil, so a well cared for tree adds value to your property and does not become the next problem to solve.

Whatever is left in the ground gets dealt with either way. Stump grinding takes it below the surface, and full stump excavations lift the root plate out where the ground is about to be built on or replanted. What comes off the job does not have to leave the property either, because our wood chipping and by products service turns limbs and offcuts into chip you can spread straight onto the garden beds. And for the clients who would rather not think about their trees at all, we schedule regular appointments on the same day and time each week.

Consultations cost you nothing, and you come away from one with an actual quote rather than a number guessed down the phone. Because we are open around the clock, a limb that drops at two in the morning still gets a person on the other end. Ring us or send an email and tell us what needs doing.
