Hope everyone is keeping safe in these Auckland stormy conditions.
Just wanted to let you all know that Shoreside Trees has emergency arborist tree crews available 24/7 if you have any fallen trees or hazardous and dangerous trees.
We cater to all markets – residential, commercial, lifestyle blocks or rural properties. There is no tree too small or too big that we cannot handle or not be willing to help you with.
All this wet weather saturates tree roots and these extremely strong winds can potentially cause failure to your trees which can cause damage to surrounding trees, landscaped and planted areas and to your property.
If you are worried about any of the trees on your property – please call Stu on 021 175 8660 or 0800 920 013 as he is available 24 /7 over these next few stormy days. If no response, please send a text as Stu clears the phone hourly.
Stay safe out there our Neighbours.
