Frequently Asked Questions

Who is responsible for trimming trees near power lines in New Zealand?

Property owners are responsible for ensuring trees in their area stay clear of power lines to prevent safety risks and outages. Under the Electricity (Hazards from Trees) Regulations, owners must maintain vegetation outside restricted growth zones.

How close can trees be to power lines, and what are the clearance rules?

Trees must stay outside the “Growth Limit Zone,” a distance that varies depending on the lines’ voltage. If a tree enters the “Notice Zone,” the lines company may issue a formal requirement for immediate trimming. Our team provides precise assessments to ensure your trees are maintained at a safe and compliant distance.

Can you remove dangerous trees near power lines safely?

Yes, we specialise in the safe removal of hazardous trees located near live conductors using controlled rigging and specialised machinery. Our qualified arborists dismantle or fell trees that pose a risk to the electrical network without damaging infrastructure.

Do you coordinate with the line company if work needs isolation or special access?

We manage all communications with the local network company if a power shut-off or a specific permit is needed for safe work. By coordinating directly with the lines company, we guarantee high-risk tasks are performed during scheduled isolations.

Do you offer emergency tree removal when branches hit lines after storms?

We provide urgent response for trees or branches that have fallen onto or near power lines during severe weather events. Our team uses all-terrain machinery and expert felling techniques to clear hazards quickly and restore safety. Contact us immediately if a tree on your property has become an electrical hazard.
