Residential and Commercial Tree Care
We work with both private homeowners and businesses. Whether its a small trim you need or a large scale removal. We can help businesses meet insurance and health‑and‑safety regulations too. Pruning, hazard assessments and scheduled maintenance is the key.
We offer all things tree maintenance. From tree trimming, to crown lifting, stump grinding and mulching. And of course tree removal.
We speak plain English (Kiwi!). We’ll explain what we’re doing and why, and leave your place tidy. Trees that are unmanaged can get diseased, overgrown and cause damage . We handle roots, limbs, pests, moss – whatever your tree needs.
Stump Grinding Oamaru
After the tree comes down, the stump can be a nuisance. A trip hazard, eyesore, or root regrowth problem. Our tree stump removal services solves that problem. We grind stumps below ground level, ensuring no regrowth or pest problems. Proper stump removal stops termites, fungi, or pests from taking hold. We’re gentle on lawns and we don’t leave mess behind. Even in damp coastal soils (e.g. Bushy Beach), rot and roots can cause issues if left alone. Our stump grinding service is the solution.
Let us help. Call now for tree trunk grinding.
Do You Need Tree Removal in Oamaru?
Sometimes a tree has to go – if is dangerous, diseased, or obstructing a view. Our tree chopping service is safe, precise, and the best way to tidy up your garden. Often, pruning or tree trimming might enough. We’ll do a thorough risk assessment and walk you through the options. If you do need a tree cut down, we have all the equipment and training necessary to carry out the job, safely! Safety is always our number one priority! And when we’re done, we clean up and chip or mulch all green waste.
Why choose tree felling? Your tree may be infected with kauri dieback or be at risk of falling over in high winds. Removing it protects your property and neighbours. It lets more air and sunlight reach healthier trees. If need be we can also provide hazard reports for insurance claims or council property work in Waitaki District.

Questions For Our Crew
How often should my trees be trimmed in Oamaru?
We recommend pruning every 3–4 years for most species. But coastal winds, fungi, or rapid growth might mean you need an annual inspection. Especially if your trees border Oamaru Harbour or the cycle trails at Oamaru Gardens.
Will stump grinding hurt my lawn or garden beds?
Not on our watch. We dig just deep enough to remove the stump. Your lawn will stay intact. We can leave the wood chips or take them away, whichever suits your garden plan.
Can you prune trees near power lines?
Yes. We are certified arborists and follow electricity safety rules. We liaise with lines companies if needed. Safety always comes first.
Do you provide emergency tree services after storms?
Absolutely. Fallen tree on your roof? Whack of wind knocked branches down by Cape Wanbrow? We respond fast to secure dangerous limbs, and keep your property and people safe.
Is your green waste removed or recycled?
We turn most green waste into mulch or compost. You can also keep it if you want it.
