Treespan Tree Services

Gardens through Melbourne's east are old enough to have serious trees in them, elms and oaks that have been standing a very long time, and they ask for something other than a quick tidy up. Treespan Tree Services is Toby, working from Box Hill North across all areas of Melbourne: Whitehorse, Boroondara, Manningham, Maroondah and Knox through the east, out to the Yarra Ranges at Lilydale, Monbulk, Seville, Wandin, Warburton and Yarra Junction, and back in through Yarra, Port Phillip, Banyule and Darebin.

When a tree does have to come out, tree removal and tree felling are done with rigging and controlled lowering so nothing underneath is damaged on the way down, and we tidy the ground up afterwards with stump removal. We do the full set of arborist cuts when tree pruning: deadwood removal, branch stubs and canopy reductions, along with crown cleaning, thinning, crown raising, crown reduction, vista pruning and restoration work on trees that have been left too long. All of it is carried out to the Australian standards for work with amenity trees and to occupational health and safety requirements.

The other half of the job is keeping trees standing. Tree risk assessment gives you a straight read on whether a tree is safe to keep, and tree cable and bracing, dynamic or static, will hold a weak or splitting limb so a good tree does not have to go. Our pest and disease management takes on elm leaf beetle, aphids, leaf lerp and oak leaf miner, and soil management runs from sampling and analysis through to modification, mulching and tillage, because what looks wrong in a canopy often starts under the ground. We also do tree planting and hedging, and the business operates to a carbon neutral policy.

Some councils require a permit before a tree can be removed or even pruned, and it catches people out. The City of Yarra, Moonee Valley, Stonnington, Maroondah, Bayside, Monash, Port Phillip and Kingston all set their own requirements. We will help you work out what yours needs, and we produce arborist assessments, significant tree reporting, individual tree and hazard reports, tree inspections and tree management plans to go with an application. Ring Toby on 0409 494 895 and the quote costs you nothing, and whatever the job, the site is cleaned up before we leave it.
