24.01.2022 For those contemplating burn offs in the near future

23.01.2022 Once again summer is approaching - spring will make things grow - so will we be able to access your property should there be a fire. Nothing worse than branches hanging over a driveway.

23.01.2022 Today we mark one year since the start of the devastating bushfires which deeply affected Victorian communities across the state. On 21 November, 2019 the first... ‘code red’ fire danger rating in almost a decade was declared in the Mallee and Northern Country, and dry lightning strikes in East Gippsland that started three fires which grew to a widespread bushfire disaster that burned for months. Today we reflect on the devastation and challenges that followed 21 November and the incredible support from all emergency services who came together to aid the communities impacted by the unprecedented fire season.
