Felling & removal in Randfontein: local notes
Dead and dying gums on old mine land near Randgate and along Main Reef Road are among the most requested jobs. A dead tree is brittle and less predictable, so experienced fellers take extra care. On plots near Westonaria, gums can often be felled whole. Near Greenhills houses, sectional work is safer. Ask whether stumps will be ground or left low and treated.
Randfontein: trees, weather and gardens
Randfontein grew around gold mines, and the mine land still holds long rows of bluegums planted for props and shelter. Those trees are now old, often dying back from the top, and they stand beside roads, rail lines and houses in Randgate, Greenhills and Toekomsrus. Out of town, farms and plots towards Westonaria and Hekpoort have gum woodlots, pines and wattle along streams. Highveld storms bring lightning and hail each summer, and dead gums drop limbs without warning. Requests are mostly felling dead or leaning gums, clearing plots, and trimming garden trees in town.
