What we do

Tree removal Redcliffe, and everything else your trees need

Whether it's a dead tree, storm damage, a palm that's outgrown the yard or a tree too close to the house, we remove trees of every size on the peninsula, safely and with a full clean-up.

We had a great experience with Colorful Tree Lopping in Scarborough. The team were friendly, professional and reliable from start to finish. … They were also very respectful of our property and, importantly, cleaned everything up beautifully once the job was finished. …

It's fantastic with the cherry picker to work efficiently and safely to avoid the electrical line that was too close to the tree to cut… Very satisfied, thanks to the team of Colourful!

Narrow access, big reach

Our elevated work platform is run by licensed operators. It needs as little as 860 mm of side access, reaches up to 20 metres and extends 9.5 metres sideways, so we can work safely on big trees in tight backyards.

We use Stihl chainsaws and Bandit wood chippers.

Good to know

Before we lop or remove a tree on the peninsula

Council approval in the City of Moreton Bay

Most backyard trees don't need City of Moreton Bay approval. Large native habitat trees (over 80 cm across, measured at 1.3 m), listed significant trees and trees in mapped environmental areas do. Check Council's Environmental Areas mapping or call 07 3205 0555, and ask us when you book your quote. More about permits.

Trees near power lines

You're generally responsible for keeping trees clear of the service line from the street to your house; Energex looks after trees around the street power lines. Never trim near power lines yourself. If the line has to be disconnected for the work, Energex may charge a fee. If a line comes down, stay well away and call Energex on 13 19 62, or Triple Zero (000).

Questions we get in Redcliffe

Do I need council approval to remove a tree in Redcliffe?
Often not. The peninsula is in the City of Moreton Bay, where most backyard trees don't need approval.

It mostly depends on the size and type of tree, how easy it is to get to, what's nearby, and whether you'd like the stump ground out. Quotes are free, and we'll beat most written quotes. For typical price ranges, see our tree removal cost guide.
