Why another tree care company?

0800 Tree Trim was born because we felt the needs of the local community were not currently being met in a manner that we felt they deserved.  Being born and breed local we know that Nelson people like to look after their own.  Many of the other tree care companys in the region are either part of a national chain, or are owned by outsiders. And as such they do not have the family ties and connections to the area that enable them to see the bigger picture.  We all have to make a living – but not at the expense of others.

Preserving our local heritage and being held accountable by our community network of family and friends is a big part of the 0800 Tree Trim business philosophy.  We want our children to be able to hold their heads high knowing that they are members of families that have been respected members of the community for generations.  We also want to know that we have preserved the local landscape to the best of our abilities for our future generations to enjoy.  We will not sell our heritage for a quick buck.

What do you think makes your company the best tree service in Nelson?

We have several advantages over the other tree service companys in Nelson and Tasman.  Firstly, we are not top heavy, so we do not have to build in the wages of numerous office staff and CEOs.  Those who own the company are also likely to be the same ones trimming your trees.

Another advantage is that we are small enough to care about the details.  We can afford to spend those extra few minutes making the difference between a good job and a great job.  We do not have to get clearance from someone in the office to do that little bit extra to achieve our goal of 100% customer satisfaction.

On top of being small enough to care we are experienced enough to handle even the trickiest tree work.  Our accomplished arborists have experience (and qualifications) in abseil tree care, crane dismantling, and removing trees and limbs from above buildings and electrical wires.

Which method do you advise as best when tree trimming?

There is no one best method when it comes to tree trimming.  There is only a best method for trimming your tree.

We evaluate many things when advising you on the best way to trim your tree. The type of tree will dictate which options are suitable from such methods as thinning, reduction, crown lifting, shaping etc.  Then we have to consider the over all health of your tree to determine what it will withstand. The location and size of the tree will determine if it is a climbing job or if it will be better trimmed from a bucket lift or from the ground.  On top of that we have to consider what your desired result is. Are you wanting more light in, a better shaped tree, wanting to increase your view, or are you trying to raise the value of your property.

We want the best option for you and as you can see a lot must be considered when choosing the right method of tree trimming.
