Frequently asked questions

Tree felling is the process of cutting down and removing a tree that is unwanted, dead, damaged, overgrown or potentially dangerous. Professional tree felling involves assessing the tree, surrounding structures, available space and potential hazards before choosing a suitable removal method. Green & Gold Tree Felling and Painting provides tree felling services in Kempton Park and surrounding East Rand areas.

The cost of tree felling in Kempton Park depends on the tree's height, trunk diameter, condition, location, accessibility and proximity to buildings, walls or power lines. Additional services, such as stump grinding and waste removal, may affect the price. Contact Green & Gold Tree Felling and Painting for an assessment and quotation based on your specific requirements.

Large trees close to houses may require sectional dismantling, where branches and sections of the trunk are removed individually rather than felling the entire tree in one direction. The appropriate method depends on the tree's condition, available working space and surrounding hazards. Specialist equipment and suitably trained operators may be required for complex removals.

Yes. Dead, damaged, unstable or potentially hazardous trees should be assessed to determine the level of risk and whether removal is necessary. Green & Gold Tree Felling and Painting can assist with tree removal enquiries in Kempton Park and surrounding areas. If a tree threatens a building or public area, arrange a professional assessment as soon as possible.

We accept enquiries for storm-damaged tree removal, fallen trees and hazardous branches, subject to availability and the severity of the situation. Storms can leave trees leaning, split or resting on buildings and fences. If a tree has contacted electrical lines, keep clear and contact the electricity provider or emergency services. Do not attempt to remove it yourself.

Fallen tree removal can include cutting and clearing tree trunks, branches and other debris from gardens, driveways, access routes and suitable residential or commercial sites. The work required depends on the tree's size, weight, location and whether it is resting on a structure or creating additional hazards.

Tree felling can be hazardous because of falling branches, heavy trunks, unstable trees, chainsaws and nearby buildings or electrical cables. Professional work requires proper planning, appropriate protective equipment, suitable exclusion zones and trained operators. Avoid attempting to fell large, unstable or structurally compromised trees without the necessary expertise and equipment.

Tree trimming and pruning help manage overgrown branches, remove deadwood, improve clearance and maintain a tree's structure. Services may include crown thinning, crown reduction, removal of hazardous branches and trimming branches that overhang suitable areas. The correct pruning method depends on the tree species, condition and intended outcome.

Branches that extend over roofs, gutters, garages or other structures may be trimmed or removed where appropriate. The work should be planned carefully to avoid damaging roof tiles, gutters, windows or nearby property. Branches near electricity cables require the electricity provider or an appropriately authorised specialist.

Tree stump removal can help clear space for landscaping, paving, lawn installation or other property improvements. The appropriate method depends on the stump's diameter, root system, soil conditions and location. Contact Green & Gold Tree Felling and Painting to discuss stump removal options and confirm availability for your property.

Stump grinding uses specialised machinery to grind a tree stump below ground level, leaving wood chips and ground material that can be cleared or reused where suitable. Complete stump removal generally involves extracting more of the stump and potentially part of its root system. The best option depends on your landscaping plans and the location of underground services.

Tree waste removal can be included in a quotation or arranged as an additional service. Depending on the agreed scope, this may include cutting branches into manageable pieces, removing logs, clearing debris and leaving the work area tidy. Confirm whether waste collection and disposal are included before accepting a quotation.

Some trees in South Africa are protected by national legislation, provincial requirements or municipal rules. Whether permission is needed depends on the tree species, location and applicable regulations. Before cutting down a tree, check with the relevant municipality or environmental authority and obtain any required permits. Do not assume that a tree on private property can always be removed without approval.

The time required depends on the tree's height, trunk size, condition, accessibility, surrounding structures and removal method. A small tree in an open garden may take considerably less time than a large tree requiring sectional dismantling. The time estimate should be confirmed after assessing the site and any equipment or safety requirements.

Tree removal and maintenance may be required at offices, shopping centres, warehouses, industrial premises, schools, residential complexes and other commercial properties. Work is planned according to the site layout, access restrictions and safety requirements. Contact Green & Gold Tree Felling and Painting to discuss your commercial tree service requirements.

Depending on the site, the work may include removing small trees, shrubs, unwanted vegetation, branches and green waste. Larger clearing projects may require specialised machinery, permits or additional site assessments.
