Centurion notes on felling & removal
In Midstream, Eldoraigne and Irene estates, felling is usually sectional because a tree sits a few metres from two houses and a shared wall. The estate may want a site plan and proof of insurance first. Along the Hennops River near Centurion Lake and Rooihuiskraal, gums and willows that have undercut the bank lean over the water, so ask how the team will lower them and remove the wood.
Trees in Centurion
Centurion is a city of estates. Eldoraigne, Midstream, Irene and the newer developments around Copperleaf have tight stands, shared walls and strict body corporate rules, so even a modest tree can need careful sectional work. The Hennops River runs through the middle, lined with willows, bluegums and invasive poplars that lean towards the water and fall in summer floods. Older suburbs such as Lyttelton Manor and Doringkloof have mature jacarandas, pepper trees and pines planted when stands were bigger. Thunderstorms build quickly over the ridges in the afternoon, and frost settles in the valleys. Work asked for most: trimming over roofs, removing trees before building extensions, and clearing invaders from river frontages and open plots.
Typical stump removal requests in the area come from:
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: stumps in shared gardens removed and the holes filled level for the landscapers
- Homeowners: an old stump dug out so a new bed, lawn or paving can go in
- Developers and building sites: stumps and root plates dug out of a building footprint before foundations
