What do tree surgeon services include?
From supplying oxygen to absorbing rainwater, trees offer countless benefits. But it’s always a two-way relationship—trees can’t give us what we need when they’re sick or worse, dead.
Good thing there’s a pool of tree surgeons in Airtasker who can do the dirty work and handle dangerous processes for us. The tree size, condition, species and location help the expert on reaching the right solution. Expect them to do pruning, lopping, trimming, and more. Specialists in tree maintenance near you perform these tasks by sophisticated climbing at great heights and rigging techniques.
Keeping your landscape in good shape by exploring these services:
Tree felling and removal
Diseased, dead, or unsafe? If your trees meet the criteria, felling is the way to go. The process involves cutting the trees down to prevent diseases from spreading to surrounding trees, moreover boosting safety in the area. Some clients also request tree felling for aesthetic purposes.
Meanwhile, tree removal means the roots, stumps, fallen branches, and the entire tree get removed.
Felling or removing a tree is a dangerous task involving specialised equipment, so it’s a must to hire a knowledgeable tree surgeon for this. For extra peace of mind, you can also book an arborist to work side-by-side with your tree surgeon, as they are trained to diagnose trees and recommend safe solutions.
Tree pruning, cutting, lopping or trimming
If diseased or dead wood is present, the tree surgeon will need to remove them, which is what pruning is about. It also boosts the growth of fruit and flower buds.
Meanwhile, tree lopping or trimming effectively modifies a tree’s shape. This is done by cutting branches and training them to grow in a specific direction. It is often focused on aesthetics. If this is not properly maintained, branches can become unwieldy, growing in various directions.
Your Tasker may also do crown thinning on a tree. This consists of removing select branches to increase light penetration and reduce crown weight.
Overall, pruning, lopping, and cutting stimulate and control growth in trees.
- Stump removal
A tree surgeon near you can also grind down and remove unsightly or bulky stumps. This process may demand a specialised stump grinding machine, which can completely destroy the tree’s stump and root system.
- Tree pollarding
Have you ever encountered the term “lollipop trees”? They are the result of pollarding with the purpose of aesthetics.
Apart from that, though, tree pollarding keeps a tree from outgrowing its bounds on a private landscape, or even encroaching electrical wires. Whether placed in streets, parks, or small spaces, trees can be compact. Once you pollard a tree, you’ll have to repeat the process every year or two throughout the tree’s life. This means you may need constant landscaping or gardening maintenance.

Request for Arborist Assessment for Overhanging Tree
$100
Box Hill North, Victoria
14th Jul 2026
We have a tree on our property with some branches extending over the boundary fence into our neighbour's property. About six months ago, the neighbour pruned some of the overhanging branches, and they have now requested to prune the tree again. Before any further pruning takes place, we would like an independent assessment from a qualified arborist. We understand that the Whitehorse City Council states that a permit is not required provided the pruning does not cause an imbalance to the canopy or remove 10% or more of the tree canopy: https://www.whitehorse.vic.gov.au/planning-building/do-i-need-permit/tree-removal-lopping-and-pruning/lopping-and-pruning/tree-growing-over-fence My concern is that the previous pruning may already have removed close to 10% of the canopy. I would like understand if they can do another round of the pruning, whether the tree is already unbalanced, or whether pruning the remaining overhanging branches would cause the canopy to become unbalanced or exceed the council's guidelines. We would appreciate your professional advice on whether any further pruning would remain within these guidelines and, if so, how much additional pruning could reasonably be carried out. If possible, I would like to get a written assessment or report outlining your recommendations, together with a quotation for the assessment and your earliest availability?

Steven did an absolutely outstanding job. He removed five large stumps and an entire tree by hand, using only basic tools, and completed the whole job in under an hour — completely solo. His work ethic and strength are unbelievable, and he tackled everything with professionalism and efficiency. A true gun at what he does and highly recommended. He definitely earned a well-deserved drink after that effort!
