Tree removals

Ben from Canterbury Tree Experts

What was there first, the building or the tree?

This was a fun technical removal. This tree had been growing up past the house for years... but recently had started to rub and bang against the roof causing multiple leaks and damage to the walls. All the foliage was rigged down to prevent further damage, and the wood saved, cut into rings and stacked for next years burning as the owners have a wood fire.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
