Frequently Asked Questions — Tree Felling Bishopscourt

Do Bishopscourt heritage trees require permits?
Bishopscourt is within the Southern Suburbs Heritage Conservation Area and many trees on estate properties are individually listed on the COCT Significant Trees Register. Permits are required for all listed trees. Additionally, properties adjacent to Kirstenbosch NGB may require SANBI assessment for trees near the boundary. We provide SAIF-registered arborist reports meeting all COCT Heritage Management documentation requirements. Our reports have been accepted for Bishopscourt properties with some of the Western Cape’s most complex heritage tree situations.
What is the standard of arboricultural work in Bishopscourt?
Bishopscourt properties require the highest standard of arboricultural practice — SAIF A300 pruning, proper rigging for all dismantling work, zero tolerance for topping or improper cuts, and full site documentation. We use Husqvarna 395XP, 572XP, and 550 XP Mark II climbing saws, Petzl ZIGZAG rope systems, and Samson rigging lines for all Bishopscourt work. A SAIF-registered arborist supervises every job. We provide before/after photographic records and written completion reports for all Bishopscourt projects.
