Flood-fed tallowwoods line the Richmond River and old figs shade the courthouse lawns, but even one cracked limb can halt cattle trucks on Walker Street before dawn. From pruning for Beef Week crowds to managing school grounds and storm callouts, Steve Cubis keeps Casino’s canopy in working shape.
We cable and deadwood high-traffic trees, grind stumps into mulch for windbreak rows, scan hollows for wildlife, and lodge permits through Richmond Valley’s e-services to keep trees safe, stock-friendly and season-ready.
PROTECTING PADDOCKS & MAIN STREET CANOPIES
Whether you’re a homeowner under a sprawling Jacaranda, a beef producer guarding cattle lanes or a developer shaping a new estate, our crew builds a scheduled paddock-pruning plan that keeps fences clear, roofs safe and DA timelines smooth, with fast response storm clearance available when wild weather hits the Richmond Valley.
FROM TREES TO TRUST
Livestock-safe fencing clearances, paddock hazard mapping and on-farm mulch options come standard with every job, supporting landholders and streamlining council approvals. Contact us for a quote that keeps cattle lanes open and courthouse figs thriving.
WORDS FROM OUR CLIENTS
From local graziers managing large properties to Main Street business owners, here are some of the top questions we get about tree care in Casino. If your query isn’t here, please ask our expert team.
We strongly advise against it. Lopping creates weak, dense ‘epicormic’ regrowth that is poorly attached and highly likely to fail in strong winds, posing a risk to stock. Qualified tree pruning, by contrast, maintains a safe, healthy canopy for shade and allows better clearance for machinery, preserving your valuable, established trees.
Just call our 24/7 emergency team or use the online form. Our crews are experienced with rural properties and have the right vehicles to reach most locations, even when local flooding is a factor. We will assess the tree's structural integrity, look for signs of root plate lifting or limb failure and provide a clear, actionable plan to make your property safe again.
They can be very helpful. As part of our AQF-5 tree reports, we can include GPS-tagged hazard maps that clearly document any risks and the work done to mitigate them. This level of professional documentation demonstrates proactive risk management, which is often a key factor for insurers when assessing policies for extensive rural and agricultural holdings.
Our office is open 7 a.m. - 4 p.m. on weekdays, but our field crews are flexible to suit farm schedules. We can arrange earlier start times for jobs like tree removal near stock lanes or other agricultural operations to minimise disruption to your workday or stock movements.
Yes, absolutely. Once the job is done, we can windrow the screened mulch along your pens, laneways or other designated areas. It's an excellent, recycled material that not only helps manage dust, a real issue in our inland areas during dry spells, but also helps retain ground moisture.
Here, tall tallowwoods don’t just shade Main Street; they provide vital shelter for stock across our pastoral lands. The rural expertise of Steve Cubis Tree Services extends to the communities of Lismore, Alstonville, Evans Head and Ballina.
In Beef Country, towering eucalypts shade stock and heavy clay clings to roots. As a landowner, your focus is on productivity and safety.
