Does the 10/50 bushfire rule apply in Grasmere?
61% of Grasmere is mapped as bush fire prone land. Some homes here may be able to use the 10/50 rule, but it's decided address by address, so check yours with the RFS tool first. The RFS tool, not the suburb, decides. See the 10/50 rule explained.
Do you work in Grasmere?
Yes. We're a Sutherland Shire business working right across Sydney, including Grasmere and nearby Camden, Bickley Vale and Ellis Lane.
How much does tree removal cost in Grasmere?
It depends on the tree's size, access, what's underneath and whether you want the stump ground. A tree over the roof or against the house usually comes down in sections, so it's priced on time and care rather than size alone. Quotes are free and no-obligation. See what affects the cost.
