The Benefits of a Professional Service
Many homeowners and business owners might consider removing trees themselves, but without the proper training and equipment, this practice can be costly. GDE Tree Services provides a safe alternative and offers peace of mind. Safety is a top priority, and we don't just chop the tree down.
We carefully remove branches using pulleys, elevated work platforms, or skilled tree climbers, significantly reducing the chances of property damage. DIY tree removal can often lead to unexpected property damage, while our professional services ensure your property is unscathed.

WHY USE GDE?
Residential Tree Lopping Brisbane
With over 35 years of experience, GDE Tree Services is one of Brisbane’s most trusted names in residential tree care. Since 1987, our family-owned and operated business has been helping homeowners across Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, and the Gold Coast maintain safe, tidy, and healthy outdoor spaces.
Our fully insured team of qualified arborists offers a complete range of residential services — from routine maintenance to storm damage clean-up and full block clear-outs. Whether you need a single tree trimmed or an entire site prepared for construction, we have the tools, training, and experience to get the job done right.
Residential Tree Services We Offer:
✅ Tree Lopping
Our tree lopping services help reshape and control overgrown trees, ensuring they remain safe, balanced, and suitable for your property layout.
✅ Tree Removal
Need to remove a problematic or unwanted tree? Our team can safely remove trees of all sizes, including those close to buildings or fences, with minimal disruption to your property.
✅ Tree Felling
We offer safe and controlled tree felling for trees that are no longer viable or pose a risk to structures or people. Our experienced arborists manage the process from assessment to clean-up.
✅ Canopy Shaping
Unruly canopies can block views, restrict sunlight, and increase the risk of disease. We carefully shape your trees to promote healthy growth, airflow, and visual appeal.
✅ Deadwood & Diseased Branch Removal
Our arborists can identify and remove dead or diseased branches before they become hazardous — protecting your property and keeping your trees in good health.
✅ Crown Reduction & Selective Pruning
If your trees are encroaching on powerlines, roofs, or neighbouring properties, we can trim them back while maintaining structural integrity and natural shape.
✅ Canopy Lifting & Clearance
We remove low-hanging branches to improve space and access underneath the tree. This is perfect for driveways, walkways, outdoor areas, and general visibility.
✅ Stump Grinding
After a tree is removed, we can grind the stump below ground level to eliminate tripping hazards, prevent regrowth, and leave the area ready for landscaping or turfing.
✅ Palm Tree Maintenance & Removal
We specialise in maintaining and removing all types of palm trees. Whether it’s trimming fronds, removing seed pods, or full palm removal — we handle it safely and efficiently.
✅ Block Clearing
If you’re preparing your yard for construction, landscaping, or a new pool, we offer complete block clearing services to remove trees, shrubs, and ground-level debris.

Residential Tree Removal Brisbane
At GDE Tree Services, we’ve been safely removing trees from Brisbane homes since 1987. Whether it’s a towering gum near your home, a storm-damaged tree hanging over a fence, or a large palm in a tight backyard — we have the experience, qualifications, and equipment to handle it with confidence.
Tree removal isn’t a one-size-fits-all service. Every tree and site is different, and that’s why we tailor our approach based on the size, species, condition, and location of each tree. Our qualified arborists and tree climbers are trained to assess risk, follow best practices, and remove trees with minimal disruption to your property.
Our Residential Tree Removal Services Include:
✅ Tree Felling
Where space allows, we perform controlled tree felling using strategic cuts and ground-based equipment. This method is fast, safe, and highly effective for large open areas or block clearing jobs.
✅ Technical Tree Removal
For trees located near structures, powerlines, or confined areas, we use a combination of:
Elevated Work Platforms (Spider lifts)
Qualified Tree Climbers
Rigging systems and ropes
to dismantle trees in sections without causing damage to nearby structures.
Yes — we still climb trees! When access is limited or machines can’t reach, our climbers get the job done safely and efficiently.
✅ Specialised Equipment to Tackle Any Tree
GDE Tree Services is fully equipped to manage even the most complex residential tree removal jobs. Our gear includes:
Excavators for heavy lifting and stump/root removal
Large wood chippers for fast debris processing
Elevated Work Platforms (including spiders for tight spaces)
Stump grinders to finish the job cleanly
Large body trucks and mini tippers for efficient site cleanup and waste removal
✅ Stump Grinding
Once the tree is removed, we don’t leave the stump behind. Our professional stump grinding service clears the way for new landscaping, prevents regrowth, and eliminates tripping hazards.
