That’s did a great job cutting down and removing four large trees in my tiny courtyard. He had a very small space to work in and the trees and fence were very close to my neighbours but he navigated all these challenges well. He was reliable and polite and communicated well re all the arrangements . He cleaned up completely and took the lot off in his big van. Very happy to recommend Tharshi.

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.

Trim Palm Tree Leaves & Clean Up Trunks (Backyard Job)

$5

Williams Landing VIC, Australia

6th Jun 2025

Hi there, I need someone to tidy up a few palm trees in my backyard. The trees are planted right along the boundary fence, and some of the fronds are hanging over into my neighbour’s yard. I’d like to get these trimmed and the trees cleaned up a bit. Scope of work: • Trim all overhanging palm fronds that are crossing into the neighbour’s side (back fence) • Clean up the palm trunks by removing the dried-up palm boots (these are the old, layered frond bases stuck to the trunk just below the green leaves – they peel off in chunks and make the tree look tidier when removed) • Dispose of all green waste – green bin is available, but if there’s too much, please advise • Be careful not to damage the fence or any nearby garden beds You’ll need to bring your own tools (saw, ladder, gloves, etc.) and safety gear. The job is in Williams Landing. Would prefer it done sometime this week or early next.

Absolutely brilliant experience. Communication, punctuality, attention to detail, and efficiency were all top-notch. He was friendly, flexible, and kept us informed throughout the job. Went above and beyond and made the whole process easy. Always happy to help and it really shows — highly recommend! 🧑‍🌾

Stump Grinding

$400

Spotswood VIC, Australia

3rd May 2025

I need 3 stumps ground down at the front of my front garden. One stump is larger as I have not yet chainsawed it down to a stump but I will do this prior or if the person I hire could do this as well that would be great. In addition to the stump grinding there are a few small weed roots at the front which it would be great if they could also be ground down as I need the front of the garden to be easily accessible and walking at the front section is at the moment difficult due to the smaller weed roots. Very easy access for the stump grinding machine and person as the garden faces the road and the garden has been mostly cleared. There's lots of room to move. Should be a pretty quick and simple job for someone with a chainsaw and stump grinder.

Basilis arrived on time and completed the tree stump removal very efficiently. Excellent work I'm very pleased indeed!
