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.
