Know how to Spot a Dangerous Tree, to Avoid Damage to Your Property and Your Family!
Trees are beautiful masterpieces of mother nature and create beautiful visual appeal in your yard. Some species of tree live for 40-50 years but some like the Bristlecone Pine are said to live for up to 5000 years! This of course depends largely on the environment around them and if they get the care and nutrients they need.
If you live in an area that is prone to thunderstorms, tornados, hurricanes or cyclones this can greatly increase the risk of broken, falling branches and even loosening of the tree roots. Also trees with known weaker roots and softer wood are more prone to being a fall risk.

These trees hacked by Energex contractors in Brisbane deserve better!
We recently read about Brisbane trees being ‘hacked’ by Energex contractors (by Ruth McCosker, Brisbane Times) and we felt as respectable tree professionals, we had to speak out. We share a grave concern for the welfare of the trees and the community that is impacted by this general lack of concern shown by Energex contractors when it comes to tree pruning and removals across Brisbane. -
