Every service we cover
Six trades. One honest answer on each.
Every page here tells you the same two things: how the job is actually done, and the point where it stops being yours to do. The green ones are usually yours. The amber ones are usually licensed, hazardous, or both.
Usually yours
Lawn care
A crew is faster than you. Nobody mows better than an owner who cares. Aeration is the one job worth handing over — the machine is punishing and you need it two hours a year.
Mostly licensed
Pest control
The useful question isn’t which insect it is — it’s where it lives. A nest you can see is often twenty minutes with an aerosol. Anything inside a wall void is a different job entirely.
Mostly licensed
Wildlife removal
Most yard damage gets blamed on the wrong animal, and timing matters more than method. Sealing an entry point during breeding season traps young inside the structure.
Mostly licensed
Tree and stump
Price is set by access more than size. A large tree with open ground around it costs a fraction of a small one that has to be climbed and lowered in pieces.
Yours to the second storey
Gutters
Nearly every decision here comes down to one thing. Single storey, level ground, a ladder you trust — that’s genuinely yours. Anything above that isn’t, and height is the whole argument.
Usually yours
Clearing and overgrowth
What decides cost here isn’t area, it’s what has to leave the site. Cutting is the easy half. Cutting, chipping, hauling and tipping are four separate charges — ask for all four itemised.
Rather do it yourself?
Thirteen full method guides — real steps, real tool costs, and the paragraph naming the point where it stops being a DIY job.
