What to know locally in Bloemfontein
Tall cypresses and gums in Westdene and Brandwag often sit close to houses and walls, so most removals are sectional. On smallholdings in Bainsvlei and towards Thaba Nchu, windbreak gums and poplars can often be felled whole. Poplars sucker from roots after removal, so ask about stump and root treatment. Ask whether logs will be cut to braai wood or removed.
Bloemfontein: trees, weather and gardens
Bloemfontein's gardens and streets carry generations of planted trees: oaks, plane trees, poplars, cypresses, pepper trees, Chinese elms and gums, with indigenous karee and wild olive in many yards. The city sits on open Free State grassland, with cold, dry winters, sharp frost and a summer of short, heavy thunderstorms. Winter drought stresses trees, and dry wood breaks in the first strong storms. Many large, older trees in Westdene, Universitas and around Naval Hill now crowd roofs and power lines. Homeowners ask for crown reduction and removal, schools and churches for safety pruning, and smallholdings near Bainsvlei for windbreak work. Ask the municipality before cutting a street tree.
Typical stump removal requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: an old stump dug out so a new bed, lawn or paving can go in
- Schools, churches and municipalities: stumps at schools, parks and cemeteries removed so they are not a trip hazard
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: stumps in shared gardens removed and the holes filled level for the landscapers
