How does the work differ between the Hills and the growth corridor?

Most of our work is in two areas. The Hills core is Emerald, Avonsleigh, Cockatoo and Gembrook. The growth corridor is Berwick, Beaconsfield, Officer and Pakenham. The jobs look quite different, so we plan them differently.

In the Hills, some blocks are too steep for ride-ons, so that work is done by hand. Big trees mean constant leaf and branch drop, so leaf removal and gutter cleaning are often needed. Some clients are in a Bushfire Management Overlay and need fuel reduction before summer. In the growth corridor the work is more often new-estate lawns and hedges, and ongoing maintenance plans with regular visits. You can see local detail on the pages for Emerald and Berwick.

Do you help with fire-season preparation?

Yes, and we offer it regularly. Fire-season preparation covers fuel reduction, fire breaks and gutter clean-outs before summer. If you are not sure where to start, the pages on overgrowth management and land clearing explain what the work involves.

Can you handle large trees and acreage?

Yes to both. Our tree services include full removals, large trees included. Jesse holds a Certificate IV in Arboriculture, and the business carries $20 million public liability insurance. Stump grinding is done by a specialist operator we subcontract. For acreage we bring a zero-turn mower, a slasher and brushcutter, and a tipper and trailer to take green waste away. We can chip branches on site with an owned or hired chipper, as covered under mulching and chipping.

How does a free itemised estimate work?

We do not publish prices, because every property is different. Instead you get a free estimate that lists the work item by item, so you can see what is included. It is an estimate, and it can be adjusted on site once we see the work in person. Tell us about the property through the estimate form or call us on 0495 033 053.

How soon can you start?

For new jobs the lead time is typically one to two weeks. We answer enquiries Monday to Friday, 8am to 4pm. Harrison and Jesse Ashford are the co-owners.
