What do tree surgeon services include?

Tree surgeon services include pruning, removing tree limbs or stumps, and cutting down trees. These specialists handle the dirty work and dangerous tasks related to tree removal. Often, tree surgeon services involve using hazardous equipment and climbing at great heights.

A tree surgeon may remove unsafe, diseased or dead trees. In other situations, a tree surgeon may prune a tree to control its growth and shape. Tree surgeon services keep your premises safe and your landscape looking beautiful. 

Tree felling

Felling involves cutting down a tree that is diseased, dead, or unsafe. When a tree is sick, a tree surgeon may have to remove it altogether to prevent the disease from spreading to surrounding trees. A tree surgeon may also fell a tree in a weak condition to ensure safety. For extra peace of mind, you can hire an arborist to work alongside your tree surgeon. Arborists are specially trained to diagnose trees and recommend safe solutions.

Tree cutting, pruning & lopping

Cutting, pruning, or lopping stimulates or controls growth in trees. Tree pruning is the process of removing diseased or dead wood. What’s more, tree pruning stimulates the growth of fruit and flower buds.

Meanwhile, tree lopping is an effective way to modify the shape of a tree. The method involves cutting branches and training them to grow in a specific direction. A tree surgeon may also do crown thinning on a tree. This consists of removing select branches to increase light penetration and reduce crown weight. 

Tree service & maintenance

Tree maintenance tasks include pruning, using mulch, and trimming. A tree surgeon may also perform preventative treatments for insects and diseases. Tree services & maintenance can keep a tree looking healthy and beautiful. To complement your tree services, book lawn care and garden maintenance for the upkeep of your outdoor space. 

Stump removal

Tree surgeons can grind down and remove unsightly or bulky stumps. The process may require a specialised stump grinding machine. With this machine, both the stump and root system can be completely destroyed. 

When the job is done, some tree surgeons may also clear out the debris from your garden or yard. If you have other clutter lying around, you can book a clearance service on our platform. Once the task is done, you can get on with your building or replanting plans. Or enjoy your newly cleared outdoor space.

Tree pollarding

Pollarding a tree involves removing all branches and most of the limbs of a tree, leaving only the trunk. Through pollarding, the tree eventually produces dense branches and foliage. For aesthetic purposes, pollarding can grow unique-looking “lollipop trees.” 

What’s more, pollarding keeps a tree from outgrowing its bounds on a private landscape or encroaching on electrical wires. The method also keeps trees compact on city streets, parks, or small spaces. 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 and garden maintenance.

Hi there, I have a few trees which are a bit overgrown. I am looking to get these prunned. If someone has a cutter which can reach 1-2 Meters high, that will do. There is most likely no need to climb at heights. Would also like the branches etc to be removed from the premises. If the person, has a car to take away the branches of the prunned trees then good, if not then also OK. Also, have a other small branches that are already get, I would like to get these taken away as well. If you can only do the prunning, quote me on that. If you can take away all the branches too, quote me on both of these. - Due date: Flexible

Pearce ACT, Australia

This tree is a Manchurian Pear (Pyrus ussuriensis) about 18 years old. One of its three limbs broke off in a recent storm, leaving some damage to the trunk. This fallen limb is currently being removed by me. I need someone to remove the standing tree. It will be ok to leave the stump. The two remaining limbs are 17cm and 20cm in diameter and I estimate the height to be about 8 metres. I would like the tree to be cut into lengths that can be handled by a single person. I'll take care of the disposal as I will make use of most of the wood. - Due date: Before Sunday, 25 December 2022

John was very responsive and worked methodically, efficiently and safely. I'm very happy with the result and would gladly recommend him for this kind of work.
