Trojan Trees

Small backyards, narrow side access, trees leaning over a fence or growing hard against a building: that is the sort of site we work on week in, week out. Trojan Trees is led by certified arborists and covers Geelong and the Bellarine, fully insured with public liability cover, and every job opens with a risk assessment before anyone picks up a saw.

Tree removal is done with ropes, harnesses and industry standard gear, taking a tree down in sections where there is no room to drop it in one. All green waste is chipped on site and carted away once the job is finished, so the block is left clear rather than stacked with timber for you to deal with. If the tree needs approval from the City of Greater Geelong, we will tell you what is required and help you through the permit before the work is booked in.

Where a tree is worth keeping, tree pruning brings it back to a sensible shape and clears the growth that is fouling a roof, a driveway or a powerline. Deadwood removal takes out the limbs that have died in the canopy and will eventually come down on their own, crown reduction lowers the sail area on a tree that has got too big for its position without butchering it, and formative pruning sets a young tree up with good structure so it does not become a problem in fifteen years.

Storm damage and hazardous trees are treated as priority work, which is why we run emergency tree services alongside the booked jobs. Fallen limbs, split trunks and trees threatening a house or a car get attended the same day wherever we can manage it, and you can ring us directly rather than going through a form.

We work right across Greater Geelong: Newtown, Highton, Belmont, Grovedale, Waurn Ponds, Geelong West, Hamlyn Heights, Corio, Norlane, Lara, Armstrong Creek and Mount Duneed, out through Leopold, Drysdale, Clifton Springs and Curlewis, and around the Bellarine to Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads, Point Lonsdale, Queenscliff, Portarlington, St Leonards and Indented Head. Inland we take in Bannockburn, Batesford, Ceres, Moriac and Barrabool.

Quotes are free and come back within 24 hours, with the price set before the work starts and no extras added on afterwards. Full site clean up is part of the job, not a line on the invoice. Ring us with the address and what the tree is doing, and we will come and look at it.
