Larry did fantastic job. He was punctual, and very professional. He had excellent expertise and made sure I am satisfied before he moved onto the next task. He was able to make my maple tree into a very nice shape that I havent't seen in a few years. I would highly recommend Larry and will be in touch again.

Arborist & Landscaper needed to trim the tree and re-level the ground

$300

Glen Huntly VIC 3163, Australia

9th Dec 2025

Hi there I’m looking for assistance with a tree-root issue in my backyard. I have a tree (not sure what specifically, might be green ash?) in my small backyard. The tree has grown too big (5m tall). Some of the surface roots have already lifted the ground, causing uneven soil and pavement. Some of the branches are reaching neighbors backyard, and the tree has also blocked too much sunlight to the backyard. My preference at this stage is to keep the tree. I might need your assistance to 1.shave the roots underground (optional: a root barrier) 2.trim the trees/branches as much as needed (reduce the impact to the neighbor and get some more light to the backyard) 3.re-level the ground (roughly 1m2, small) However, if you believe the tree is better to be removed and replaced with another, I am open to consider this option. Thank you.

Hi there, I am looking for a qualified arborist to help with a plum tree in my front yard in Ashburton (VIC 3147) that was damaged by strong winds last weekend.

Please provide a quote including waste removal. Thank you.
