We’ve cleared well over 100 sections across the Queenstown area over the past 20 years, including some of the steeper, trickier sections on the hills above town that other contractors won’t touch.
The most common culprits on Queenstown sections are broom, gorse, blackberry, and long rank grass, all of which spread fast and become a much bigger job the longer they’re left. We also handle general overgrowth, scrub, self-seeded trees, and anything else that’s taken hold on a neglected section.
No two sections are the same, and we approach each job based on what’s actually there, the slope, the vegetation, the access, and what you want to do with the section afterwards.
An overgrown section isn’t just unsightly, it’s a fire risk, particularly through the dry Queenstown summers when broom and gorse become tinder-dry. It can also attract complaints from neighbours and, in some cases, attention from the council. Keeping your section under control is an obligation as well as an investment in the property.
We bring the right equipment for the job, high-powered brushcutters, chainsaws, and chippers where needed. For larger or steeper sections we have machinery capable of handling serious vegetation without hand-clearing every square metre. We also provide before and after photos for every job, so you have a clear record of the work completed, particularly useful for insurance, council compliance, or overseas owners.
A cleared section doesn’t stay cleared on its own. Once the initial work is done, we’ll recommend a practical maintenance plan, usually a combination of follow-up spraying and periodic cutting, to keep weeds and regrowth under control on an ongoing basis. It’s far cheaper to maintain than to clear from scratch again in two years.
We clear sections for homeowners, property investors, developers preparing land for a build, real estate agents getting a property ready for sale, and property managers who need a neglected section brought up to standard quickly. Whatever the reason, we’ll give you a straightforward quote and get the job done efficiently.
Get in touch and we’ll come out to assess the section and give you a clear quote. For most jobs we can give you a price on the day.
We have a range of machinery to assist us, from big high powered brushcutters, to chainsaws and occasionally chippers. Its good to keep on top of your section to alleviate the risk of fire and perhaps more importantly, keep your neighbours happy! Once cleared we can recommend a good maintenance schedule that will control the weeds and shrubs on a permanent basis.
