Straight Felling
Where there is plenty of room, a tree can be felled whole in a controlled direction. We plan the fall carefully, secure the work area and then cut the tree down to size on the ground, which is quick and efficient.
Some trees are simply too large, unstable or poorly placed to keep, and tree felling in Wellington requires skill, planning and the right equipment. Our arborists assess the lean, height, health and surroundings before deciding between a straight felling cut and sectional dismantling. Where space allows, we fell the tree in a controlled direction. Where houses, fences, power lines or neighbours are close, we take it down in sections using ropes and rigging so nothing is left to chance. Wellington's slopes and wind add extra challenges, and we plan every job around them. Our crew works safely, wears full protective gear and keeps the site secure throughout. When the tree is down, we cut up the timber, remove the debris and leave your property tidy. Call us today for a clear, upfront quote.

In tight spaces, a tree has to be dismantled in pieces and lowered safely. We climb or use equipment to take it down section by section, protecting roofs, fences, gardens and neighbouring property throughout the entire job.
Before any cut is made, we look carefully at the tree’s lean, weight, structure and surroundings. This helps us choose the safest method, spot hidden hazards and avoid damage, so there are no surprises once the work is under way.
Wellington has plenty of narrow driveways, steep sections and trees close to houses and fences. Our crew is experienced with difficult access, using the right equipment and techniques to get the job done safely where others struggle.
Once the tree is down, there is a lot to clear. We cut logs and branches to size, remove timber and debris, and chip the green waste, leaving your property clean and tidy when we leave.
After felling, you can leave the stump low or have it removed. We can follow up with stump grinding to clear the space completely, so you can use the area for a lawn, garden or building.
Felling a tree is one of the riskiest jobs in arboriculture, which is why it should never be a do-it-yourself project. Our team plans every job, secures the work area and uses proper rigging and equipment. We protect your property, work around power lines and neighbours, and leave the site clean. Clear communication and a straightforward quote mean no surprises. Call us to talk through your tree.
