Tree Removal & Arborist Services in Strathmore
Strathmore's wide streets and mid-century brick homes come with mature backyard trees that were planted when the suburb was young. Many of them are now at the size where they need serious attention.
Mature trees on mid-century blocks
Liquidambars, silky oaks, gums and large ornamentals are common here, often planted close to the house or the back fence. As they age we see more deadwood, root lifting of paths and driveways, and limbs extending over roofs.
For some trees, a crown reduction and deadwood clean-out gives them years more life. For others, particularly those with poor structure or root damage to the house, removal and stump grinding is the safer option. We will give you a straight answer either way.

Strathmore tree questions
My tree's roots are lifting the driveway. What are my options?
Sometimes root pruning and a new path is enough. If the roots are also near the house or pipes, removal and stump grinding is usually the better long-term fix. We will inspect it and explain both options.
Can you reduce a tree rather than remove it?
Often, yes. A well-planned crown reduction can bring a tree back into proportion with the yard without the damage that lopping causes.
