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.

Lemon tree pruning/trimming and mulch disposal

$110

Footscray VIC 3011, Australia

24th Oct 2025

📌 Task has been updated. * Clarified my availability * Increased the offer from $80 to $110 to account for additional labour * Added photos of both trees (edited for privacy) * Added additional descriptions of the branches, including thickness so you know what tools may be required * Clarified approximate height of the branches and their location Available to be completed on: Saturday 25 October Sunday 26 October (rain and possible storm so may not be suitable) Tuesday 27 October Don't mind if task is worked on after 6pm but want to ensure it's completed before sunset for your safety (I have porch and some garden lighting but don't want us to rely on that when it gets darker) Trim several overhanging lemon tree branches that are accessible via a ladder. There are two lemon trees. The first tree has thin branches that are closer to the ground and along the driveway fence as shown in the first photo, and four thicker branches as shown in the second and third photos. The second lemon tree consists of tall and thin branches as shown in the fourth photo. The branches are between approximately 152cm and two storeys from the ground. The branches that are approximately two storeys from the ground are thinner. and are close to the brick wall exterior of the house. The four thicker branches may require a saw or heavy-duty pruning shears to cut. These branches are all angled towards or close to the ground. The rest of the branches are quite thin. Some of them hang over the driveway fence. A few others hang over the porch part of the fence and have begun growing onto the gutter of the porch roof. The porch roof is lower than the height of the first storey. Dispose of the cuttings and leaves, the fruit on the cuttings and the fallen fruit. Total garden contents should easily fit into a van or a small trailer.
