Branches Near Lines
Branches growing towards or touching power lines can cause outages, fires and serious injury. We trim them back carefully, using safe working methods, so the lines are clear and your home and neighbours stay protected.
Trees growing near power lines are a serious danger, risking outages, fires and electric shock. Our powerline tree clearance in Wellington service keeps vegetation at safe distances while protecting the health of your trees. Never attempt to trim near lines yourself, because contact with live conductors can be fatal. Our trained arborists understand the required clearances, assess each tree carefully and use correct techniques and equipment to work safely. We coordinate with the relevant line company where needed and plan the job to keep disruption low. Strong winds can push branches into lines quickly, so regular clearance prevents outages and costly repairs. We direct growth away from the lines, clean up fully and remove all green waste.

Branches growing towards or touching power lines can cause outages, fires and serious injury. We trim them back carefully, using safe working methods, so the lines are clear and your home and neighbours stay protected.
Safe distances between trees and lines are important. We prune to maintain the clearances needed and advise you on what applies to your site, so you can be confident the work has been done properly.
Some trees simply cannot be managed safely next to power lines. In those cases we recommend removal and carry it out in careful, controlled sections, so branches never swing into the lines during the job.
Strong winds can push branches into lines and bring them down. Reducing overhanging growth lowers the chance of outages and damage, helping to keep your power on and your property and neighbourhood safe, even when strong southerlies come through.
In some cases the line owner needs to be involved. We explain when this applies and guide you through who to contact, so the work is done safely and in line with the requirements.
Working near live infrastructure demands care. Our arborists plan each job, use proper rope and equipment techniques, and never take shortcuts, because the consequences of an error near power lines can be severe, and safety always comes ahead of speed.
Working near power lines is dangerous, and it is not a place for guesswork. Our arborists understand the risks, plan the work carefully and know when the lines company has to be involved. We take care to keep your property and your neighbours safe. Contact us before the problem becomes an outage.
