TREE WORK IN THE HILLS AND VALLEY

Tall trees and steep blocks across the Yarra Ranges

Yarra Ranges covers two very different worlds. Up in the Dandenongs, around Belgrave, Kallista and Ferny Creek, some of the tallest trees in the country grow in cool, wet, ferny gullies, often standing right beside homes on steep, forested blocks. Down on the Yarra Valley floor around Lilydale, Coldstream and Chirnside Park the land opens out, with farm trees, exotics and gums on flatter, more workable ground.

The Yard works across the whole shire with a tree team that respects how demanding the hills can be. Tall mountain ash and messmate close to houses, steep driveways, narrow winding roads and high storm exposure all call for careful planning and the right gear. We assess each tree properly, work methodically on difficult ground, and can mulch the material on site or take it away.

Local knowledge

Tree work for the Dandenongs and the Yarra Valley

In the ranges the trees are simply bigger and the ground is steeper. Mature mountain ash and messmate can tower over homes in Belgrave, Kallista and Ferny Creek, and when they drop limbs or fail in a storm the consequences are serious, so height reduction, deadwooding and careful removal all need real skill and proper rigging. The hills also carry high bushfire risk, so keeping trees pruned back and clear of the house is worth staying on top of.

The Dandenongs are storm country, and severe winds regularly bring large trees and limbs down across driveways, roofs and power lines, which is where our 24/7 emergency tree removal earns its keep. Down in the valley around Lilydale, Coldstream and Chirnside Park the work is more open, with room to bring in machinery for removals, stump grinding and larger clean-ups. We suit the approach to whichever side of the shire you are on.

  • Height reduction and careful removal of tall mountain ash and messmate close to hill homes.
  • Pruning and selective removals to keep trees clear of homes in high bushfire-risk areas.
  • Storm response and 24/7 emergency tree removal after the severe winds the ranges are known for.
  • Open-ground removals, stump grinding and clean-ups across the Yarra Valley floor.

"Haris is no fuss. Met on a Friday and he provided advice and a prompt quote. Next day he arrived with his team and performed the job safely, skillfully, efficiently and cleaned up entirely before leaving. We can recommend him."
Paul Lowden Verified Google review
"The boys did a great job in a very awkward location in the backyard on a 10 meter gum tree. Their price was competitive and they even took the mulch to our community garden and unloaded in a difficult spot without complaint."

Common questions

Yarra Ranges tree questions, from hills to valley

We have huge mountain ash right next to the house in Belgrave, are they safe?
Tall mountain ash are magnificent but they do shed large limbs, especially in storms, so it is worth having them checked. We can deadwood, reduce height where appropriate and, if a tree is genuinely dangerous, remove it safely in roped sections on the steep ground.
We want to clear trees back from the house for bushfire safety, can you help?
Yes. In the hills, keeping trees and growth clear of the house is an important part of bushfire preparation. We can prune, reduce and selectively remove to create space around the home, and advise where council rules may apply to larger trees.
A tree came down across our steep Kallista driveway overnight, what now?
Call us any time, as storm damage in the ranges is exactly what our 24/7 emergency tree removal is for. We are set up for the steep, tight blocks up here and can clear the driveway and make the tree safe quickly.
Do I need approval to remove a tree in the Yarra Ranges?
Often, yes. Much of the shire has vegetation and landscape protections, and bushfire provisions can also apply, so removals may need council approval. We can help you understand what is likely to apply to your block before any work begins.
