Wild Green Tree Care - Connolly

Our process draws on the full range of tree care practices, including lopping and stump grinding wherever it's needed.

Pruning done properly is the foundation of healthy trees, whereas tree lopping can leave lasting harm behind. That's why we stick to Australian Standards for every job, so Connolly trees stay vigorous and hold onto their natural form. Our full suite of tree services — pruning through to stump grinding — is built to keep your trees in top condition for the long haul.

There's more to good pruning than appearances, too: it helps cut fire risk and stops pests from taking up residence, so your palms look their best across every season. We take care never to over-prune, since that common misstep places extra stress on a tree and stunts its growth — meaning your palms stay tidy, healthy, and safe all year round.

In Connolly, hedges are often the first thing people notice about a property — they set the tone before anyone even reaches the front door. Some homeowners prefer sharp, formal lines to complement a townhouse frontage, while others want a relaxed, natural finish suited to a bigger block. Either way, our certified arborists have the experience to deliver exactly what you're after, arriving with the right tools and technique to trim efficiently and safely around fences, driveways, and neighbouring properties.

Staying on top of regular trims is what keeps a hedge full and healthy rather than sparse and woody, and it also protects visibility at driveways and street corners — a detail that's simple to overlook until it becomes a real hazard. Whatever shape or size your hedge takes, we'll leave it neat, dense, and thriving.

Don't let an old stump sit there causing problems — beyond being an eyesore, it's a trip hazard and a breeding ground for termites and fungal rot, and it'll get in the way the moment you want to lay new turf, build a garden bed, or landscape the space. Our stump grinding service gets rid of the obstacle completely, clearing the ground for whatever you have planned next in your Connolly garden.

Our purpose-built equipment grinds each stump down well below the surface — exactly how far depends on the tree species and what you're planning for the space afterwards — so there's nothing left poking up to catch a mower or hurt bare feet. We also clear away the spreading surface roots around the base, giving a far tidier finish than simply waiting for a stump to decay naturally, which can take years. Afterwards, it's your call: leave the mulch on-site to enrich your garden beds, or have it hauled off entirely so the area's ready for turf, paving, or planting straight away.

From a single leftover stump to several from a bigger clearing job, we handle it fast and tidily, keeping disruption to your Connolly property to an absolute minimum.

Very little of what we take down goes to waste — it's repurposed as fresh garden mulch or seasoned firewood for winter, all part of the comprehensive service we bring to Connolly properties. Our expertise spans everything from routine tree maintenance and lopping to efficient stump grinding, keeping your outdoor space well cared for year-round. Just ask if mulch or firewood is on hand when we're on site..

Trees on common property come with a layer of complexity all their own — several stakeholders to answer to, committee sign-off required, and a genuine need for a contractor who's dependable from start to finish. Wild Green Tree Care partners with strata management companies serving Connolly and the wider northern suburbs to handle that complexity for you.

Strata work isn't the same as looking after a single home, and we get that. Committees want itemised, transparent quotes they can approve without going back and forth, jobs timed around residents and shared areas so disruption stays low, and a crew that shows up exactly when promised. Our fully insured team looks after everything from regular pruning and hazard mitigation to complete removals and stump grinding across apartment blocks, villa developments, and townhouse complexes.

We're happy to coordinate directly with your building manager or committee, supply before-and-after photos to keep your records straight, and set up an ongoing maintenance schedule so tree care never turns into a rushed job ahead of an AGM. One reliable contact, steady pricing, and no last-minute surprises — across every property in your Connolly portfolio.

Get in touch to discuss a maintenance plan for your strata portfolio.

After a storm rolls through Connolly, it's not unusual to find a tree down, a limb resting somewhere it shouldn't be, or a trunk that's cracked but hasn't fully given way yet. None of these situations tend to improve by waiting.

We treat storm damage as the priority it is. Our team responds quickly to Connolly properties, checks how serious the risk actually is, and removes the hazard safely, even when conditions call for an urgent, same-day response.

Every storm job is a little different. It might be a single fallen branch, or it could be a large tree that's come down across a yard, a trunk split by wind, or a root system loosened by heavy rain. Our Connolly team brings the right tools for whichever situation you're facing, and works carefully to avoid causing further damage to fences, paving, or garden beds.

We take care of:

• Removing trees that have fully or partly fallen
• Clearing storm-snapped branches and limbs
• Checking trees that look unstable after bad weather
• Careful work in coastal or tight residential yards
• Complete debris clean-up once finished

If your Connolly property has storm damage, don't leave it sitting. Contact Wild Green Tree Care and we'll sort it out.

Storm Damage Questions

Can you come out the same day if a tree's just come down in Connolly?
Usually, yes. We prioritise storm-related jobs and do what we can to get to you quickly, particularly where there's an ongoing risk.

The tree's still up but looks unsteady, should I still call?
Yes. Storm-affected trees can look fine at a glance but still have compromised roots or internal cracking. It's better to have it checked than to assume it'll hold.

What if the tree came down on my fence or carport?
We deal with this regularly and take extra care during removal so the existing damage doesn't get worse.

Is clean-up included, or do I need to sort that myself?
It's included. We clear all branches, leaves, and timber before we leave.

Does insurance usually cover this?
It depends on your policy, so check with your insurer directly. We're happy to give you photos or documentation of the job for your claim.

What if the tree has cockatoos in it?
Where there's evidence of Carnaby's Black Cockatoo nesting, we pause and assess in line with the EPBC Act 1999 and WA Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016 before continuing, even under time pressure.

Palm trees are a familiar sight across Connolly's coastal streets and gardens, but without regular maintenance, they can quickly become an eyesore or even a safety concern. Dead fronds, old seed pods, and built-up debris in the crown not only look untidy but can pose a real risk, especially during strong coastal winds when loose fronds are prone to dropping.

Our team specialises in safe, professional palm tree pruning for Connolly properties, whether you've got a single feature palm in the front yard or a row lining your driveway. We remove dead and dying fronds, trim back overgrowth, and clear seed heads to keep your palms looking neat while reducing the risk of falling debris.

Palm trees require a different pruning approach to other tree species, and doing it incorrectly (or over-pruning) can actually weaken the tree and shorten its lifespan. Our specialists know how to prune palms properly, taking only what needs to come off and leaving the crown healthy and well-balanced.

What we handle:

• Removal of dead, dying, or hanging fronds
• Clearing old seed pods and flower stalks
• Crown clean-outs to reduce fire and pest risk
• Height reduction and shaping where required
• Safe pruning of tall palms using appropriate equipment
• Full clean-up of fronds and debris after the job

Whether you're maintaining a healthy palm or dealing with one that's overgrown and neglected, our Connolly team can get it back into shape safely and efficiently.

Palm Tree Pruning FAQs

How often should palm trees be pruned?
Most palms in the Connolly area benefit from pruning once or twice a year, though this can vary depending on the species and how quickly fronds die off.

Is it bad to over-prune a palm tree?
Yes. Removing too many green fronds, sometimes called "hurricane cutting" or "over-lifting," can stress the palm, reduce its ability to photosynthesise, and make it more vulnerable to pests and disease. We only remove what's necessary.

Can dead palm fronds actually be dangerous?
Yes. Dead fronds can be heavy and, especially on taller palms, can cause injury or property damage if they fall unexpectedly, particularly during windy weather.

Do you remove the trunk skirt (old frond base) as well?
Depending on the palm species and your preference, we can leave a neat trunk skirt or remove it for a cleaner, more manicured look.

Will pruning help my palm tree produce coconuts or fruit better?
For fruiting or flowering palms, removing spent flower stalks and old seed pods can help redirect the tree's energy, though results depend on the species and overall health of the tree.

Not every tree problem is obvious at a glance. Cracks, internal decay, root damage, and structural weaknesses can develop gradually and go unnoticed until a tree fails, often during a storm or period of strong wind. If you have a tree on your Connolly property that looks unwell, is leaning, or simply makes you uneasy, a professional risk assessment can give you clarity on whether it needs action.

Our arborists carry out thorough tree risk assessments across Connolly, examining the trunk, root plate, canopy, and overall structure to identify any signs of instability or disease. We look for things like cavities, fungal growth, dead wood, included bark, and soil heave around the base, all of which can indicate a tree is more likely to fail.

Once we've assessed the tree, we'll give you a clear, honest picture of the risk level and the options available, whether that's monitoring, pruning to reduce load, cabling and bracing, or removal if the tree poses a genuine hazard. We never recommend removal unless it's genuinely necessary, and we'll always explain our reasoning so you can make an informed decision.

What we assess:

• Structural defects, cracks, and cavities
• Root health and stability, including soil movement
• Signs of fungal decay or disease
• Deadwood and weak or overextended limbs
• Proximity to structures, driveways, and powerlines
• Overall likelihood and consequence of failure

Whether you're concerned about a specific tree or want peace of mind before storm season, our Connolly team can provide a clear, professional assessment you can rely on.

Tree Risk Assessment FAQs

When should I get a tree risk assessment?
It's worth having a tree assessed if it's leaning, has dead branches, shows fungal growth at the base, has been damaged in a storm, or is simply ageing and located near your home, car, or a shared fence line.

Can a tree look healthy but still be at risk of falling?
Yes. Many structural issues, like root decay or internal cavities, aren't visible from the canopy and can only be identified through a closer inspection of the trunk and root zone.

Will I be told if my tree needs to be removed?
Yes, but only if it's genuinely warranted. We'll always explain what we've found and the reasoning behind any recommendation, so removal is never suggested unnecessarily.

Does a risk assessment cost extra, or is it part of the service?
This can vary depending on the complexity of the assessment required. We're happy to discuss this with you upfront so there are no surprises.

Can risk assessments help with insurance or council requirements?
Yes, a written risk assessment can be useful documentation for insurance purposes or if your property is subject to any local council tree requirements.
