What does tree lopping involve and why is it needed?

Tree lopping involves cutting back overgrown or hazardous branches to improve safety, property clearance, or tree shape. It’s commonly done when:

  • Branches are overhanging roofs or driveways
  • Trees pose a risk to people, powerlines, or buildings
  • Fast-growing limbs block sunlight or views
  • Storm-damaged or dying branches need urgent removal
  • Local councils require compliance with vegetation rules

While tree lopping reshapes and controls growth, it also helps prolong the health of certain species when done correctly. That’s why using trained tree loppers with local knowledge is key—it ensures cuts are made safely and within regulations.

What Is the Process of the Tree Lopping Service?

At The Yard, we keep our tree lopping process transparent, efficient, and tailored to the needs of your property. Every job starts with a proper on-site inspection so we can make the right decisions for your trees and your safety. Here’s how the process typically works:

  1. Initial Contact & Quote: You reach out to us, and we arrange a site visit (often on the same day). We assess tree size, location, access, and risks.
  2. Site Assessment & Plan: Our team determines the best lopping strategy, considering the tree’s health, structure, and nearby hazards. We advise clients on whether they need council approval.
  3. Safety Preparation: We clear the work zone, brief the team, and set up any necessary rigging or elevated platforms to ensure safe lopping.
  4. Precision Tree Lopping:  We remove only the necessary branches to manage shape, clearance, and safety — without harming the tree’s long-term health.
  5. Clean-Up & Disposal: Once the lopping is complete, we chip or remove all waste and sweep the area clean. Mulching is optional if you’d like to reuse it in your garden.
