Dennis Clements runs Total Tree Care. We've been doing tree work around Te Awamutu and the Waikato since 1992. $4 million public liability cover. We handle everything from lifestyle blocks to farms, schools, kindergartens, real-estate, and local bodies.
The work changes from week to week. One day it's a fall-out from a storm at a Kihikihi farm, the next it's a routine trim run for a Te Awamutu school. Dennis still climbs himself when the job calls for it, and the rest of the crew has been with the operation long enough to read a tree the same way.
Gear we run
We run Hansa chippers (Hamilton made), Vermeer hydraulic stump grinder, Predator 460, and Stihl cordless gear. All kept in good shape for the job.
- Hansa chippers, Hamilton-built, the same workhorses you see all over NZ arborist sites
- Vermeer hydraulic stump grinder, the heavy machine for bigger stumps and rural work
- Predator 460, compact grinder for tight access on residential
- Stihl cordless, chainsaws and pole saws for quieter residential pruning
- Branded truck and chip trailer, what you see arriving on your driveway
Insurance and cover
$4 million public liability cover sits behind every job. Fully insured crew. We're a sole-trader operation, not a Limited (the Auckland-based "Total Tree Care Limited" is a different company entirely).
