What our clients say

Rated 4.9 from 380+ Google reviews.

Ironbark removed a huge gum hanging over our house — climbed it and took it down piece by piece without touching the roof. Professional, safe and they left the yard spotless. Genuinely impressive.
Mark & Jenny T.★★★★★Newtown · Google
They pruned our old oaks beautifully and, unlike the last mob, actually knew what they were doing. Honest advice, fair price and a tidy job. We won’t use anyone else now.

Called them at midnight when a tree came down across the driveway in a storm. They were there fast, made it safe and cleared it, and sorted the insurance paperwork. Lifesavers.

FAQs

Tree care in Lara — common questions

Are you qualified and insured?

Yes — our arborists are Certificate III/V qualified and we carry $20M public liability insurance on every job. Tree work is high-risk, so qualifications and insurance matter.

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

Often, yes — many Geelong-area councils protect significant trees. We know the local rules, can advise whether a permit is needed, and can provide an arborist report to support an application.

Do you clean up afterwards?

Always — every branch is chipped and the site is left clean and tidy. Leaving your property spotless is part of the job, not an extra.

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

Yes — we run a 24/7 emergency storm-response crew across Geelong for trees that are down or dangerous, and we help with the insurance paperwork.

Which areas do you cover?

We cover Geelong and the Surf Coast — including Newtown, Highton, Geelong West, Ocean Grove, Torquay and Lara.
