Felling & removal in Randburg: local notes
Linden and Blairgowrie stands are small, so most felling there is done piece by piece from the top, with branches lowered over walls and pavements. On the slopes of Northcliff Ridge, steep gardens make rigging and wood removal slower. Dying pines are a common job in Ferndale. Stump grinding is usually the better choice than digging out in these tight gardens.
What grows around Randburg
Randburg mixes older suburbs with mature gardens and the rocky koppies of the northern Johannesburg ridges. Linden, Blairgowrie and Ferndale were planted with jacarandas, oaks, pines and bluegums in the middle of the last century, and those trees now crowd small stands and overhead cables. Northcliff Ridge and the koppies around Bromhof carry indigenous bush, including white stinkwood and wild olive, that should be checked before anyone cuts. Thunderstorms roll across the ridges from the west most summer afternoons, and lightning strikes are common on high ground. The usual requests are trimming over roofs and cables, removing dying pines, and grinding stumps in small gardens. Pavement trees here generally belong to the city.
The requests we see from Randburg usually come from:
- Homeowners: an old stump dug out so a new bed, lawn or paving can go in
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: stumps in shared gardens removed and the holes filled level for the landscapers
- Businesses and commercial property: stumps removed from parking areas and verges before new paving is laid
