What Affects Tree Removal Near Power Lines Cost
The cost of tree power line clearing can vary depending on a few key factors. Larger trees tend to cost more because they require extra time, specialised equipment, and a bigger team. If your tree is close to powerlines, it makes the job a bit more complicated and requires extra safety measures, which can add to the price. Other elements that impact pricing include the accessibility of the tree and whether the work is in a front or backyard, as limited access might require extra labour. Clean-up and disposal of branches and debris are factored into the final price as well.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is responsible for trimming trees around power lines?
In most cases, the responsibility for trimming trees around power lines falls on your electricity distribution company or local council. However, if the tree is on your property and near power lines, you may need to coordinate with the electricity provider to ensure the work is carried out safely and within regulations. At TLC Trees, we can assist by working alongside power companies to ensure your tree is trimmed safely and in compliance with local rules.
How do you get rid of trees around power lines?
Removing or trimming trees near power lines requires specialised skills and equipment to ensure safety and prevent accidents. At TLC Trees, we have experienced arborists trained to safely trim or remove trees that are close to power lines. It’s important to always notify your local electricity provider before any work begins to ensure the power lines are de-energised, and all safety protocols are followed. Rest assured, when you work with us, we ensure that all local regulations and safety protocols are followed.Â
How close to property line can trees be cut?
You have the right to trim branches, leaves, or roots that extend over your property line. This is known as the “right of abatement.” However, before you proceed, it’s a good idea to talk to your neighbour and check if the tree is protected or if you need any permits from the local council. At TLC Trees, we handle these discussions and checks for you to ensure everything is done in accordance with local regulations and maintains good neighbourly relations.
Will the tree grow back after tree power line clearing?
Yes, trees will often regrow after being trimmed or cleared from power lines, especially if only the branches are cut. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent trees from growing back and potentially causing issues with power lines in the future. At TLC Trees, we offer ongoing tree maintenance services to keep your trees safely managed and ensure they don’t interfere with power lines again.
When do I know if I need tree power line clearing?
You may need tree power line clearing if:
- Tree branches are touching or very close to power lines.
- You see branches hanging over or near power lines.
- You notice any signs of damage to power lines caused by tree limbs.
- During storm seasons, if you are concerned that nearby trees might pose a risk to power infrastructure.
If you’re unsure, our team at TLC Trees can conduct an inspection to assess the safety of your trees and determine if power line clearing is urgently needed.
