Site Clearance & Chipping in Christchurch

Overgrown sections, cleared

Whether it’s an overgrown section or a garden that’s got away on you, we clear it and chip what comes out, leaving the site tidy and ready to use.

It might be scrub and self-sown trees, a hedge that’s taken over, or years of growth along a fence line. We’ll walk the site with you, agree what’s staying and what’s going, and get on with it.

We clear sections across Christchurch’s eastern suburbs, including Aranui, Bexley, Southshore, South New Brighton and Wainoni, and right across Christchurch City.

Chipping and firewood

Branches and green waste are chipped on site, so you’re not left with a pile of cuttings. Want the mulch? We’ll chip it neatly for you and leave it where it’s useful. Don’t want it? We’ll take it away and make use of it ourselves.

Larger wood can be cut into firewood rings and left on site in pieces you can actually lift, or taken away.

What's included

  • Overgrown scrub and self-sown trees cleared
  • Hedges and garden growth cut back
  • Branches and green waste chipped on site
  • Mulch left for you, or taken away
  • Firewood rings left on site or removed
  • Site left tidy and ready to use

Matt and assistant did an excellent job. He followed our instruction very well. His cut is tidy and shapely. Also his attitude is very friendly. We are very happy with his job. We have not much hesitant for recommending him to my friends if they look for reasonably priced nice mannered and skillful arborists.

Matt & crew did an excellent job, left the area tidy, & were careful not to damage the other plants & juvenile trees nearby. Thank you :)

Matt and his team have been cutting our hedges and trees for a while now and we have been super impressed with all the work they do , the hedges have never looked so neat and tidy and they leave the place clean and tidy when they've finished , we would highly recommend them for any tree work or hedge cutting.

Great team, great workmanship and great price. We had them trim back a very large and tall oak tree away from our house and a number of other trees cut down and cleared away. Canterbury TreeWorks arrived on time and got right into it. They cleaned up all the debris and left the garden in tip top shape. Would happily recommend and use again in future.

Matt was asked to quote for the removal of two very large trees and some general pruning. His rate was very competitive, and the job was expertly completed. He and his team were a pleasure to deal with and left our garden in a pristine state. I would not hesitate to recommend his services.

Matt & Josh did an awesome job of lowering and shaping our confer that was blocking our solar panels. Matt is pleasant to deal with and is a great communicator. He is mindful of surroundings when working and is very knowlegeable. We will definitely get the team back to trim our shared driveway. Highly recommended.

Common questions

Can I keep the wood chip?

Yes. If you want it, we’ll chip it neatly and leave it for you. If you don’t, we’ll take it away.

What happens to everything you clear?

Branches and green waste are chipped. Larger wood can be cut into firewood rings and left on site, or taken away.

Can you clear a section that’s hard to get to?

Access matters, so we check it on the site visit and tell you straight what’s possible.

How long does a clearance job take?

It depends on the size and how overgrown it is. We’ll give you an idea when we quote.
