About emergency storm work
After a storm, the urgent work is making the site safe: removing limbs from roofs and driveways and taking down hangers before they drop. Insurers usually cover emergency make-safe work; photograph everything before the crew starts and keep the invoice itemised. Be cautious of door-knockers straight after storms, and check insurance before anyone climbs.
Quick answers
How much does tree removal cost?+
Small trees typically cost $300 to $800 to remove, mid-sized trees $800 to $2,500, and large or difficult-access trees $2,500 to $5,000 or more. Stump grinding is usually quoted separately, often $100 to $400 per stump. Access, powerlines and what happens to the timber move the price more than height alone.
Do I need council approval to remove a tree?+
Often, yes. Most councils protect trees above a certain trunk circumference or of particular species, even on private land, and fines for unapproved removal are substantial. In South Australia, regulated and significant tree rules apply based on trunk circumference. A reputable arborist will tell you when a permit is needed and can prepare the supporting report.
What qualifications should an arborist have?+
Look for AQF Certificate III in Arboriculture for climbing and cutting crews, and AQF Level 5 for consulting reports. Ask for public liability insurance of at least $10 million and, for any tree near powerlines, confirmation the crew is authorised for that work. Cheap quotes from uninsured operators become your problem the moment something lands on a fence.
What is the difference between lopping and pruning?+
Pruning makes selective cuts to standards that preserve tree health and structure. Lopping in the crude sense means cutting branches back to stubs, which triggers weak regrowth and decay and often makes the tree more dangerous within a few years. Many quality businesses still use the word lopping, so judge them by their method, not the name.
