Ferny Hills

The Gap is the bushland interface, and it is a genuinely different job to the rest of Brisbane. Large remnant eucalypts, steep blocks backing onto D’Aguilar National Park, and vegetation protections that catch a great deal of what is growing here.
Family homes on large, often steep blocks, many of them backing directly onto reserve. The suburb was developed into the bush rather than clearing it, which is why the trees are so much bigger than the surrounding suburbs.

Tall remnant eucalypts — spotted gums, tallowwoods and blue gums — at heights that need a proper climb or a crane. This is also koala habitat in places, which affects what can be done and when.
What we do in The Gap:

Your council
The Gap is in the Brisbane City Council area. The Gap carries the heaviest protection in our area.
Access
The hardest in our patch. Steep driveways, blocks falling away behind the house and trees a long way from any vehicle. Rigging and climb-and-carry are standard here rather than exceptional.
Where it sits
The Gap is in the western suburbs, well inside the area we cover every week.

The Gap carries the heaviest protection in our area. Bushland interface, significant native vegetation and habitat considerations all apply, and in Brisbane you always need a permit to remove a native tree. We will tell you what we think applies when we quote, and our Brisbane City Council page sets out the detail — but for anything marginal, confirm it with the council directly before the work goes ahead.

It depends on the tree, what sits underneath it and how we can get to it — and in The Gap that last one does a lot of the work. The hardest in our patch. Steep driveways, blocks falling away behind the house and trees a long way from any vehicle. Rigging and climb-and-carry are standard here rather than exceptional. That is why we quote on site rather than over the phone. Quotes are free and there is no obligation.
