Recent Tree Removal reviews in Melbourne

Paul did a fantastic job cutting down our dead gumtree. He was very professional and friendly. He also went above and beyond, clearing up after himself. We would definitely book Paul again for any garden maintenance job that comes up. Would highly recommend! Thanks again Paul. It was a pleasure to meet you.

What does a tree removal service include?
Tree removalists are experienced in a range of services relating to removing and maintaining trees. Services they can help with include:
Tree removal
Need gum tree removal, palm tree removal, or another type of tree moved or removed? Tree removal is often considered a last resort in tree maintenance, and will usually only be done if other maintenance options aren’t suitable. A tree may need to be removed if it’s causing safety concerns, is diseased or dying, or causing damage to structures or underground pipes on your property. Your tree removalist may use a truck, a cherry picker, ladders, chainsaws, and even experienced tree climbers to help take the tree down and remove it from your yard.
Tree lopping
Tree lopping removes parts of a tree rather than removing the whole tree. In some cases, there may be large sections of the tree that have been damaged in a storm or bad weather. Or perhaps the tree is growing in a way that will obstruct power lines and other services. Most tree loppers will use a ladder, a chainsaw, and a pruning saw to remove the parts needed, before mulching or removing the leaves and branches. Note that it’s important to seek specialist advice and only hire an experienced tree lopper as incorrect tree lopping can cause an otherwise healthy tree to die.
Pruning and maintenance
Gum trees and eucalyptus trees, as well as other tall trees often need pruning and maintenance to ensure they remain at a manageable and safe height. When they’re getting close to roofs and gutters (but especially power lines), it’s time to engage an expert to trim them. Trimming is also important to remove any diseased or dying branches to make sure they don’t fall and cause injury. Depending on the tree and branch size, your tree pruner will use either an electric chainsaw or a pruning saw, along with secateurs to trim back branches.
Stump grinding
Stump grinding is often required after a tree is removed to fully extract the stump or grind it lower than ground level. Your specialist will clear the area and move their stump grinding equipment into place before using the stump grinding blade to gradually bring the stump back below ground level. They’ll then cover it with soil. This is to ensure the tree won’t reshoot and grass can grow over it. Leaving a tree stump in the ground or untouched can attract termites and other pests. Plus, it will always sit in the way of landscaping attempts or leisure activities in your backyard.

I need to remove this tree, about 1. 7m high. Please remove the stump as well, as the roots are very close to the property, and I don't want potential termites issue. It's not urgent, can be done in the next month. I am only free on weekends. I have a green waste bin.


Helped me to replant the tree smoothly, and helped me to install the letter box. The only thing is that the written communication before meeting was not so efficient, but in person verbal communication had no issues. Happy with the service overall

Bamboo and small tree removal (enclosed garden bed)
$300
Coburg VIC, Australia
8th Dec 2024
Looking for someone to pull up and completely remove and dispose of the contents of a small-ish brick garden bed. Garden bed is ~30cm tall, ~30cm deep and ~6m wide. Left half of the garden bed contains bamboo with a well established root system (hopefully not a problem with the correct tools). Right half includes a couple of small shrubs and trees, largest of which is maybe 6-7cm at the base. Good laneway access means you can basically drive up to where the job is. Will require a Ute or small truck to get rid of everything. Happy to supply more pics if necessary, Would prefer either an early start on a weekday (so I can set you up before leaving for work) or a weekend but can be flexible.


Super reliable, very friendly and absolutely nailed the job. Will not hesitate to use Chris again.
