Use this guide to define the work. Call Dallas Timpson on 027 340 6581 to discuss your project and request a quote.

Basic pruning for garden trees

Identify the tree, desired clearance and any branches affecting paths or nearby planting. Pruning methods and timing depend on the species and its condition.

  • Provide photos of the whole tree and surrounding space.
  • Explain any overhanging branches and access constraints.
  • Avoid assuming heavy reduction is suitable for every tree.

Safety and specialist tree work

Work near power lines, significant heights, unstable trunks or complex dismantling requires specialist assessment. Kiwi Gardeners' general tree-care offering should not be confused with certified arborist services.

Pruning waste and clean-up

Ask whether branch collection, loading and disposal are included in the quote.

Does Kiwi Gardeners remove large trees?
