BRACING & CABLING
Bracing and cabling may seem like a jarring solution at first. Still, it’s sometimes the only choice for preventing damage to yourself or your property. When an unsteady tree is located close to home, bracing with metal cables and braces can be used as a support system that will ensure its longevity without causing harm.Â
After all, safety should always come first. When done by experienced experts such as arborists, these solutions are sure-fire ways of keeping you safe while maintaining your tree’s beauty!
Tree bracing & cabling is the practice of installing dynamic or static bracing into a tree canopy to support its structure.Â
These cables are either attached to the tree using bolts through the limbs of the tree, or spliced around the limbs of the tree.Â
There are two types of tree cabling:
Static cabling, which is used to support large mature trees with compromised structure. It aims to more or less immobilise the branches and limbs in question using metal bolts.Â
Dynamic cabling, is non invasive and allows the tree to move naturally by splicing around selected limbs. This type of cabling can be more beneficial to the tree’s overall health and ability to fend for itself against windy weather.
The idea of installing metal cables and braces on a big beautiful tree might initially sound somewhat unattractive, but sometimes it’s your best bet for ensuring the longevity of the tree in question.
Whether your concerned about the tree’s structural integrity, or you’re worried that windy weather might cause failures, an  unmanaged tree may pose a risk to your property or surrounding areas.Â
Tree bracing and cabling can be used to support certain parts of the tree – it may be the case that only one or a few branches are at risk of falling. The good news is that regardless of the scope of the bracing and cabling required, it won’t hurt your tree if done properly by a qualified arborist.
TREE REMOVAL
Removing a tree can be difficult, but sometimes it’s necessary for safety purposes. At Precise Tree Services, we understand the importance of careful and safe tree removal. Our team of experienced and qualified arborists can help you with any tree removal needs. We’ve got you covered from large-scale hazardous tree removals to shrubs and stump grinding. We use the latest equipment and techniques to ensure a safe and efficient removal process, focusing on avoiding any damage to your property and the surrounding environment in a quick & efficient manner.
TREE EMERGENCY WORKS
Our top priority is protecting your property from unexpected damage that can be caused by storms, high winds and other natural disasters. Our team of experienced arborists are available to provide emergency tree removal services with the most up-to-date equipment and techniques, so you can rest easy knowing your home or business will be secure in no time! We also offer expert pruning services for additional protection against further harm.
The most common emergency situations that necessitate the removal of a tree are:
- Storm damage
- The tree is found to have a structural defect
- Sudden signs of internal rot or decay
- Loss of large limbs resulting in a compromised canopy
- Damage to Root Zone
As these are all situations that pose a risk to people or structures near the tree in question, they justify the immediate removal of said tree.
We will generally not remove a tree unless it’s absolutely necessary to do so.Â
FORMATIVE PRUNING
Precise Tree Services provides professional formative pruning services for schools and government properties in Melbourne. Our qualified arborists employ a wide range of techniques, such as crown reduction, thinning the canopy, and removing deadwood to shape trees into aesthetically pleasing forms with strong structures that support safety on site. Tailoring our approach to meet each client’s individual needs is key to creating healthy and beautiful long-term results.
Off-course branches or excessive growth can quickly pose a risk to nearby structures or other trees, and sometimes it can be hard to imagine a solution aside from removal. Formative pruning is a practice implemented when working with young or immature trees to ensure they grow in a desirable direction and shape. It involves pruning and cutting back growth on the tree while it’s still young to give the tree an overall shape that it will generally maintain as it grows and matures. It’s a bit like how Japanese bonsai is done, but less extreme and for normally sized trees instead of tiny ones.
HABITAT CREATION
Our habitat creations work can involve the installation of man-made wildlife boxes in trees, or the creation of artificial hollows. Tree hollows can take the best part of a century to develop naturally, but they’re crucial to the life cycles of countless native fauna. Similarly, our wildlife boxes seek to mimic natural habitats that only develop under very specific circumstances. Being able to create these environments on demand is a significant contributor to ongoing efforts to encourage diversity and health among our wildlife.
Habitat creation is the practice of improving a green space to be more habitable to local wildlife. The name of the game is encouraging creatures and critters to move in, and make their home in the new space. It requires an incredibly detailed and thorough understanding of what native flora and fauna look for in a home, and the ability to recreate naturally occurring environments from scratch.
TREE TRANSPLANTING
If you’re moving and love your trees, why not take them with you? We can handle the removal, transporting, and replanting of one tree or several from start to finish without running the risk of damage or soil erosion.Â
Whether you’re managing a backyard or a national park, we’re happy to handle any, or all of your tree transplanting needs.
If waiting decades to have mature trees isn’t for you, then tree transplantation might be the option.
POSSUM BANDING AND MANAGEMENT
If your property has a high population of possums, that are causing damage to your garden, consider possum banding and/or isolation pruning which can minimise or eliminate possum access. It’s a solution that doesn’t harm your tree or the various animals that use it as a home but does prevent possums from climbing along certain branches – or even up the tree’s trunk. We can install possum banding on your tree quickly, efficiently, and without running the risk of damage to your trees or the wildlife.
ELM LEAF BEETLE TREATMENT
The elm leaf beetle may look harmless but it’s a significant pest that affects elm trees. Severe infestations of these beetles can cause tree defoliation, rendering the tree weak and prone to other pests and diseases. This can all happen within ONE WEEK!
High temperatures can increase the speed of the beetle’s metabolism, so now is a great time to get on top of any potentially harmful effects that the elm leaf beetle may be causing to your trees.

My journey as an Arborist began in 2010 when I was presented with an opportunity to work in the Otway region, pruning trees to ensure clearances from power lines. Intrigued by the prospect, I made the bold decision to leave my job as a Glazier and pursue a career in arboriculture. Since then, I have never looked back.
