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.

Tree Removal & Stump Grinding (Waste Disposal Required)

$150

Brookfield VIC 3338, Australia

26th May 2026

Hi everyone, I need a professional to completely cut down and remove the tree at the front of my single-storey vacant house (as shown in the attached photo). IMPORTANT NOTES: 1. There is WATER connected at the property, but there is NO electricity. You must bring your own petrol-powered chainsaws, tools, and equipment. 2. There are NO green bins on-site for this massive amount of waste. You must completely load and dispose of all the branches and tree trunk off the property. 3. My budget is strictly $150 FIRM including everything. Please do not offer if you cannot do it for this total price. Scope of work includes: • Cut down the entire tree safely without damaging the house wall, roof, or ground lights. • Grind or cut the stump down as low to the ground/root level as possible. • Chop the wood and clear all green waste, branches, and leaves from the site. Leave the front yard completely clean. WASTE DISPOSAL: I have 2 small green bins on-site that you can use to pack the small leaves/branches. Any remaining large branches or tree trunk pieces must be loaded and taken away by you off the property. Looking for a quick and neat job. Thank you!

Remove a stump that appears to be from an old pot plant. Remove a hedge that is 2.5m tall by 2.7 m wide. See pictures for what the plants look like. I would like all the chopped up wood/branches/leaves to be left in a pile in the garden for use as mulch/compostable material. (The reason why I need these removed is so that I can dig the garden bed dirt out level with the concrete so that another contractor can install a sliding gate that will retract behind the fence in this location, but it needs clearance)

Great job removing the plants I needed removed. Very neat and tidy.
