We’ve worked with hundreds of Melbourne homeowners and insurance companies to remove storm-damaged trees, secure properties, and provide documentation that helps the claim process go smoothly.
What is a Makesafe?
A makesafe is an emergency service that secures a property and removes immediate dangers after damage has occurred — especially from fallen or unstable trees.
Typical makesafe jobs include:
• Removing fallen trees from homes, roofs, sheds, and vehicles
• Clearing dangerous limbs still hanging or resting on structures
• Protecting structures from further damage (e.g., using tarps or clearing access)
• Providing reports and photos for insurance claims
