Project Brief

This Edmonton property needed the overhanging trees trimming back off the brick paved driveway. They were closing in on the edge and blocking the view up the drive. The client wanted the trees brought back away from the driveway and the property opened up again.

We started along the left edge where the foliage was thickest. The growth was dense and hanging low over the pavers. We worked our way down the driveway, cutting the trees back from the edge and lifting the canopy off the paved surface.

There was plenty of green waste to deal with. We loaded it into the branded trailer and made multiple trailer loads over the course of the job. Lots of greenery came off, and plenty of green ants came with it. We kept at it until the edge was clear.

With the trees cut back, the driveway opened right up. You can now see the full brick paver surface, the lawn alongside, the chain link fence and the mature palm behind. The path is clear from the edge and there is nothing hanging over the pavers.

It is straightforward work, but it makes a difference to how the front of the property reads. We cleaned up as we went and cleared the green waste off site. If you have overhanging trees crowding a driveway or path, this is the kind of job we do. We also handle turf work around the same area, like this turf install in Edmonton, when the ground needs sorting out after clearing.

What was included

  • Trimmed overhanging trees back from the brick paved driveway edge
  • Lifted the canopy off the paved surface along the left side
  • Worked down the length of the driveway to clear the overhang
  • Loaded green waste into the trailer over multiple loads
  • Cleared the driveway edge and cleaned up on site

The Result

The driveway is clear of overhanging trees, with the full brick paver surface, the lawn, the fence line and the palm all visible again. The green waste was hauled out in multiple trailer loads and the edge along the drive is open.
