Sean did an absolutely outstanding job. Communicated clearly about arrival times and discussed the job thoroughly before beginning. He clearly cares about trees and the best possible way to maintain them. Brought all equipment necessary. Sean cleared the mess of branches and debris and removed it all, leaving our yard looking immaculate. Friendly, honest and hard-working, we highly recommend Sean and wouldn’t hesitate to use the services again.

What does a tree removal service include?

Tree removalists are experienced in a range of services relating to removing and maintaining trees. Services they can help with include:

Tree removal

Need gum tree removal, palm tree removal, or another type of tree moved or removed? Tree removal is often considered a last resort in tree maintenance, and will usually only be done if other maintenance options aren’t suitable. A tree may need to be removed if it’s causing safety concerns, is diseased or dying, or causing damage to structures or underground pipes on your property. Your tree removalist may use a truck, a cherry picker, ladders, chainsaws, and even experienced tree climbers to help take the tree down and remove it from your yard.

Tree lopping

Tree lopping removes parts of a tree rather than removing the whole tree. In some cases, there may be large sections of the tree that have been damaged in a storm or bad weather. Or perhaps the tree is growing in a way that will obstruct power lines and other services. Most tree loppers will use a ladder, a chainsaw, and a pruning saw to remove the parts needed, before mulching or removing the leaves and branches. Note that it’s important to seek specialist advice and only hire an experienced tree lopper as incorrect tree lopping can cause an otherwise healthy tree to die. 

Pruning and maintenance

Gum trees and eucalyptus trees, as well as other tall trees often need pruning and maintenance to ensure they remain at a manageable and safe height. When they’re getting close to roofs and gutters (but especially power lines), it’s time to engage an expert to trim them. Trimming is also important to remove any diseased or dying branches to make sure they don’t fall and cause injury. Depending on the tree and branch size, your tree pruner will use either an electric chainsaw or a pruning saw, along with secateurs to trim back branches.

Stump grinding

Stump grinding is often required after a tree is removed to fully extract the stump or grind it lower than ground level. Your specialist will clear the area and move their stump grinding equipment into place before using the stump grinding blade to gradually bring the stump back below ground level. They’ll then cover it with soil. This is to ensure the tree won’t reshoot and grass can grow over it. Leaving a tree stump in the ground or untouched can attract termites and other pests. Plus, it will always sit in the way of landscaping attempts or leisure activities in your backyard.

Athelstone, South Australia

We would like to remove one of the trees in our front yard. Whilst the tree is reasonably large. It has many medium to small branches that can be cut off leaving a fairly short trunk. No climbing or height related equipment is needed. The requirement though is to ensure the stump is properly removed and “chomped” down to 1 foot below ground level so that grass will grow across the space. If necessary we have a tree saw lopper with extended pole, which you would be welcome to use. All other tools are required to be provided. If you want the wood you are welcome to it, otherwise it can be left behind having been chopped in 50cm chunks for easy disposable over time in green bins.

Thanks for your help

Hi, I'm looking for someone to remove a Magenta Lilly Pilly tree, a Hibiscus bush and a Foxtail Agave, and take away the green matter. If you could grind the stump of the tree, that would be wonderful. There is also a silver birch that needs pruning, as it is overhanging the gutters. If you are interested in all or part of this job, please let me know.
