Tree Removal and Stump Grinding in Stafford
A local Northside crew handling Stafford's big backyard trees and tight access blocks, every day of the week.
Stafford is one of those older Northside suburbs where the trees have had decades to get big. A lot of the homes are post-war timber places and Queenslanders on quarter-acre blocks, and the backyards came with mature gums, mango trees, poincianas and the odd jacaranda that have grown well past the back fence. We work in Stafford most weeks, so we usually know what is behind those houses before we turn up.
We are based just up the road in Chermside, roughly four kilometres away, so getting a crew and gear to a Stafford job is quick. That matters when a limb has come down across a driveway after a storm, or when you just want someone to show up and give you a straight answer on a tree that has you worried.
The work we do here covers tree removal, tree lopping and pruning, stump grinding, palm removal and cleaning, and storm and emergency call-outs. We are fully insured, we quote for free, and we are open seven days.
Every tree job in Stafford, sorted
The big jobs in Stafford tend to be backyard trees that have outgrown the block. Forest red gums and other eucalypts are common around here, and they will drop large limbs without much warning, so they need a proper look from someone who knows what they are doing. Poincianas throw out heavy horizontal limbs that catch the wind in a summer storm, mangoes get dense and shady right over the house, and a lot of yards have a row of palms that need the dead fronds and seed pods cleared out each year.
Access is the part that catches people out in Stafford. The streets are tight and a lot of these blocks have a narrow side gate and a fence line close to the neighbour, so you cannot always swing a big machine straight in. We run a mini track loader (an Avant) that fits through standard gates, a tracked stump grinder for the same reason, and a cherry picker for the tall removals near the house or close to Kedron Brook. Keep in mind that bigger gums, eucalypts and pines can be protected by Brisbane City Council, so it is worth checking whether a permit is needed before anything comes down.

Learn moreA Stafford call-out is never far away
Being based in Chermside means we are only a few minutes from Stafford, so call-outs are fast and we are not adding travel onto your quote from the other side of town. We know the suburb's older blocks and the access problems that come with them, we clean up properly before we leave, and if a tree comes down across your yard in a storm we can usually be there the same day. It is owner-operated, so the person who quotes the job is the person doing the work.

Stafford tree questions
Yes. We work right across Stafford, from the streets up near Stafford City and the Sparkes Hill reservoir down to the blocks backing onto Kedron Brook. The narrow side access on the older post-war homes is normal for us, which is why we run a mini track loader and a tracked stump grinder that fit through a standard gate.
We can. Stump grinding is one of the main things we get asked for in Stafford, often on old gum or mango stumps left from a removal years ago. The tracked grinder gets into backyards without tearing up the lawn, and we grind below the surface so you can turf or plant over it. We can take the mulch away or leave it for the garden, your call.
