Most days in Aspley, folks call Don Tree Services because they’re worried about a gum tree hanging low over the roof, or a big old stump messing up the yard. If you're searching for Don Tree Services Aspley because you need real help from someone who actually knows the trees around here, you’re in the right place. We work all over Aspley, from around Robinson Rd Marketplace to the quiet streets near Aspley State School, and we know how fast trees can get outa hand when the weather turns wild.
A lot of people around Aspley ask, “Who’s the best tree service near me?” And honestly the answer changes depending on who shows up, who does good work, and who doesn’t leave a mess.
Don Tree Services has been looking after trees in Aspley for years, and we kinda know every corner of the suburb, from Ellison Rd to the hills heading toward Albany Creek.
Tree service might sound like a fancy term, but really it just means we look at your trees and fix the problems before they become big dramas. Gum trees out here grow fast and drop branches without warning. We check them, trim them, or remove them before they cause damage. We talk plain and tell you exactly what needs doing so you don’t stress about it.
When the wind picks up across Aspley, especially in storm season, folks start seeing branches hanging low over driveways and powerlines. Tree trimming keeps all that under control.
Our tree trimming service is one of the most asked-for jobs around here. People often say, “The leaves keep blocking my gutters,” or “The branches keep hitting the roof at night, drives me nuts.”
We trim branches safely and shape the tree so it grows better. For gum trees, we cut the dead or cracking limbs so they don’t fall when you least expect it. We keep everything clean, tidy, and ready for the next storm.
Sometimes a tree is just too far gone. Maybe borers got into it, maybe the roots are lifting the driveway, or maybe it’s grown too close to the house. In Aspley, some properties have big old eucalyptus trees planted decades ago. They look great but can be risky if they lean or split.
Our tree removal team handles the whole job from start to finish. We look at the tree, check how safe it is, then safely cut it down in sections. People often say, “What do I do if a tree is dying?” or “Can you take it down without hitting the fence?” – yes, that’s what we do every week.
We also help with council tree rules if the tree is protected or you’re not sure what category it falls under.
After a tree is cut, the stump stays and becomes a pain pretty quick. Ants love them, roots keep sending up shoots, and the mower keeps smashing into it.
Our stump removal service uses high-powered grinders to break the stump down into mulch. We dig out the roots when needed, level the soil, and leave the yard ready for turf, a garden bed, or whatever you want.
A lot of Aspley yards are on slopes, and roots from old gum trees run deep. We know how to get rid of them safely without messing up pipes or the yard.
People sometimes call asking for a “tree cutting job,” which usually means they want a tree reduced, lopped, or managed before it gets too big. We explain what can be cut legally and what keeps the tree healthy.
Tree cutting is not just chopping away at random. Doing it wrong can make the tree weak and more likely to fall in storms. We keep it safe and follow best practice so the tree stays strong.
Pruning is kinda like giving a tree a haircut so it grows better. Our tree pruning service helps shape the canopy, remove crossing branches, and open the tree up so the air flows better.
For smaller trees like lilly pillys, bottlebrush, and backyard fruit trees, pruning makes them healthier and stops them from leaning or splitting. For eucalyptus trees, pruning reduces weight in the upper branches, which lowers the chance of storm breaks.
Some folks call because the tree roots are cracking their driveway, pushing up the yard, or getting too close to pipes. Our tree root removal service is careful and safe. We map the roots, cut only what’s needed, and stop them from causing more damage.
In older Aspley homes, especially near Zillmere Rd and the older brick houses, root problems are pretty common. We deal with this stuff all the time.
Aspley gets hit pretty hard when summer storms roll through. Gum trees drop branches fast because they shed weight to protect themselves. If your tree sways too much, has dead limbs, or leans more than normal, you should get it checked.
Leaves from eucalyptus trees fill gutters every few weeks. That leads to blockages, leaks, and water running back toward the house. Trimming the trees fixes that problem quickly.
Loose or cracked branches can fall without warning. If your kids play in the yard or you have pets running around, getting a tree inspection once a year is a smart idea.
We live local, work local, and most of our jobs come from people telling their neighbors about us. We’ve done work all over Aspley – near Marchant Park, Aspley East, around Ben Lomond St, and the estates closer to Carseldine.
We talk like normal people, not like some tree textbook. We tell you what needs doing, how much it costs, and why. No fuss, no fancy stuff.

Modern tree lopping (also called crown reduction or selective pruning) is completely safe. We remove only the heavy, dangerous or overhanging branches and reduce weight while keeping the tree healthy and natural-looking. Old-style “topping” is banned and we never do it..
Most residential jobs range from $350–$2,200 depending on tree size and access. Small palm cleaning or light lopping starts at $350–$650, while large gum or fig reductions are $900+. Every quote is free and fixed-price – no hidden extras.
Yes – 100%. Branches are chipped on-site, the lawn is raked and blown, gutters cleared of leaves, and everything is taken away the same day. Most Chermside customers say the yard looks better after we leave than before we arrived.
For standard lopping, crown thinning, deadwood removal or palm cleaning – almost never. We know exactly what Brisbane City Council allows without a permit and we’ll tell you straight away if your tree needs paperwork.
