Question 1

Does a tree really need to be removed or can it be preserved?

Accepted Answer

In many cases, a problematic tree can be preserved through targeted care measures instead of removal. Through professional crown pruning, deadwood removal, or crown anchoring, trees can often be stabilized and made safe for traffic. Removal is only necessary when the tree is no longer stable, shows severe decay, or traffic safety cannot be guaranteed otherwise.

Question 2

How often should trees be inspected?

Accepted Answer

A professional tree inspection should be conducted every 2-3 years, especially for trees near roads, sidewalks, or close to buildings. After extreme weather events such as storms or heavy snowfall, an additional inspection is recommended.

Question 3

What to do in case of snow breakage or storm damage to trees?

Accepted Answer

In case of snow breakage or storm damage, you should immediately contact a specialist. Broken branches or damaged trees often pose an acute danger. I offer emergency services in the Stanzer Valley, Paznaun Valley, and the Arlberg region and am available outside regular working hours.

Question 4

What does professional tree care or removal cost?

Accepted Answer

Costs vary depending on tree size, location, accessibility, and local conditions. Factors such as proximity to buildings, the need for rope climbing technique, or special felling influence the price. After a free on-site inspection, I'm happy to provide you with an individual quote.

Question 5

How are trees in gardens or residential areas safely felled?

Accepted Answer

Trees in alpine residential and settlement areas must be worked on precisely and in a controlled manner. This is where specialized tree care comes into play with rope climbing technique for precise work directly in the tree, rigging and lowering techniques to lower trunk sections in a controlled manner, and specialized felling in individual pieces.

Question 6

Do you also work in the Landeck district, Stanzer Valley and Paznaun Valley?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I operate throughout the Landeck district – from St. Anton am Arlberg through the Stanzer Valley and Paznaun Valley to Lech and the Kloster Valley. For emergencies, I am also available outside regular working hours.
