Before & after

Real jobs, real results

Good pruning should leave a tree looking natural, not hacked. These are two recent Trusted Tree Care jobs, photographed before and after.

Front-yard canopy thin

A heavy, top-weighted canopy thinned and reduced to take load off the trunk, let light through and keep the tree healthy.

    We’re getting our new driveway done and needed some stumps removing. Albert did a fantastic job grinding them all out. He arrived on time, was kind and respectful and left the site immaculate. 10/10. Will definitely use him for our trees again in the future. Thanks Albert!

    Our property in Harkaway was hit badly by storms in Feb 2024. Albert came and quoted the job in detail and set a date we agreed on. He was punctual and worked hard with all the required machinery, doing a great days work, completing everything he quoted and a bit more! You’re the best Albert!

    We had Albert and his team remove a dead tree from our yard. I found him to be very professional, friendly, and well priced. His quote was considerably cheaper than other quotes we got. We are very happy with the tree removal and we will be calling Albert again for any future tree work. I would highly recommend Trusted Tree Care.

    I used Albert from Trusted Tree Care to prune three trees. He arrived on time on two separate occasions & did a very good job on all three trees, cleaning up everything afterwards. If you are looking for someone that does an excellent job at a very fair price, then look no further.

    Had Albert come over to look at some trees on my property in Rowville that we wanted pruned. He helped us improve the aesthetics and safety of our outdoor living space at a competitive price, was easy to deal with and left the place immaculately clean. Thanks Albert!

Questions

Good to know

Not sure what your tree needs? Ask. There is no obligation, and Albert is happy to give an honest opinion.

Do I need a council permit to prune or remove a tree?

Sometimes. Many Melbourne councils protect significant trees, native vegetation or trees above a certain size, and the rules differ from council to council. Albert will check what applies to your property and help you apply if a permit is needed.

Is the clean-up included?

Yes. Branches, leaves and sawdust are cleared away as part of the job, and your yard is left tidy.

Can you grind the stump after a removal?

Yes. Stump grinding can be done on the same visit or booked on its own, for stumps old or new.

What happens after I send an enquiry?

Albert will get back to you to talk it through. For most jobs he will come and look at the tree, or ask for a couple of photos, then give you a clear quote.
