Have you got dead trees or branches in your garden? Summer is around the corner so now is the time to start thinking about getting bushfire ready. Unfortunately bushfire season seems to be coming earlier every year and lasting longer. For houses in Canberra and around the Bungendore, Yass, Queanbeyan region, the best way to make sure your house is protected is to make sure you have removed dead timber from around your house.
Tree work is dangerous, don’t risk an injury to yourself or your property. Call TreeWorks to get rid of any dead branches or trees especially pines, gum trees and paperbark.
