Simon’s Town is a historic naval town on the False Bay coast, known for its heritage buildings, working harbour and the famous penguin colony at Boulders Beach. Older properties here often have established gardens, while the town’s heritage status means some tree work needs extra care around protected buildings and streetscapes.
Narrow, historic streets in parts of the town call for careful access planning, similar to other heritage-era suburbs we work in like Kalk Bay and Bo-Kaap. Properties further from the historic centre, away from the immediate naval and harbour precinct, tend to have more typical residential garden space.
Given the heritage character of much of Simon’s Town, we check carefully whether any approvals are needed before recommending removal of older, prominent trees.
Whatever the heritage status of your property, we start every Simon’s Town job with a free, honest on-site assessment.
