Tree cutting

Many owners ask us to come and cut down one of their trees. Of course, the felling of trees is part of our service offer. However, we would like to inform you that, since a tree is a precious living being, we always do our utmost to preserve its life and health when circumstances permit. We therefore evaluate the tree and its environment to determine whether other interventions could solve the problem, such as pruning or guying. As a last resort, if other options have been considered but are not appropriate, we will proceed with the safe felling of the tree. We also offer shredding and stump removal services. We can then give you the chips produced by these operations if you need them. 

Tree pruning

 Pruning is a technique that consists of carefully cutting one selected branch at a time, eliminating all those that are broken, weakened, diseased, infested with insects or simply dead. This technique can also correct an imbalance in the general structure of the tree. Pruning helps to ensure the tree's vitality and health as well as to improve its appearance and stature. This practice also makes it possible to lighten the head of the tree so that it is more resistant to strong winds, which in turn helps prevent accidents.  
 
Pruning your trees regularly offers many advantages. Indeed, pruning allows trees of all ages to reach their full potential.  Contact us so that our qualified arborists can evaluate your trees and establish a maintenance plan. Our certified arboriculturists will always try to prune a tree instead of pruning it.  Unfortunately sometimes pruning a tree is the only possible solution.  

Tree trimming

Sometimes we need to remove larger sections of a tree, for example, when branches are too close to a house and could quickly damage it, or are too close to electrical wires, or too close to the sidewalk and street. We can cut the entire top of a tree for a homeowner who wants to create a beautiful view of a landscape, or the entire lower branches of a tree for someone who wants to set up a picnic table in the shade. However, it is important to know that these drastic cuts, then belonging to trimming techniques, create a shock for the plant and that this stress could even lead to its premature death. Although we recommend that you avoid this type of cutting whenever possible, our pruners understand that it may be necessary in certain situations. 

Tree cabling

Tree guying consists of installing cables, also known as shrouds, and rods designed for this purpose, in order to solidify sections of a tree whose structure is unbalanced, to support branches that are too heavy or to stabilize a partially uprooted tree. This method is also used in the case of a tree with several trunks, growing in opposite directions and threatening to split the center of the tree. We often have to resort to this practice following a storm or simply after strong winds, or even after an accumulation of ice. Reinforcement of trees is often necessary when they have not been pruned in the early years of their life or when they have not been well maintained afterwards, creating significant imbalances in their structure. Be assured that this support system is not harmful to the tree and can be adapted throughout its development. Contact us so that we can determine if guying your tree could be beneficial to it. This method can not only save the life of some trees, but it can also prevent many unfortunate accidents. 

Stump removal

You may have no problem keeping a felled tree stump on your property. However, there are some disadvantages you should be aware of. A decaying stump attracts fungi, insects and small animals that are potentially harmful to your plants, property, pets and children. The strain also causes you to lose space on your property and is a danger to people, which can lead to injury. These inconveniences are the reasons why it is strongly recommended to proceed with a stump removal after cutting down a tree. We use a specialized machine, the stump grinder, to reduce the stump to dust.

Branch shredding

A pile of branches on your property has the same drawbacks as a tree stump: it takes up space that you could use instead; more importantly, it is dangerous for your children and pets. Rotted wood is a fertile environment for the proliferation of fungi and insect pests and attracts small animals such as skunks, porcupines and raccoons. This is why we shred the branches after pruning, trimming, pruning or felling the trees. We also offer the branch shredding service to homeowners who wish to get rid of a pile of branches that is taking up more and more space over the years. We use appropriate shredding equipment to transform the branches into reusable chips.

Training size

Practiced on very young trees, training pruning gives them a harmonious shape that will avoid many problems once they reach maturity. For example, a tree with a balanced structure is much less likely to be uprooted during a storm. When practiced on fruit trees, formation pruning increases fruit production.

Emerald ash borer. Disease and insect pest detection

If you regularly observe your trees from head to toe, you may one day notice a significant change or abnormality. Less foliage could be a sign that the tree is suffering from a disease or that it is invaded by insect pests. However, be aware that many tree diseases and insect infestations are not visible to the naked eye in the early stages. Once homeowners notice irregularities, it is often far too late and the tree must be felled before it infects its neighbors or before the branches fall off and cause damage. We recommend that you make an appointment with us to thoroughly evaluate your trees at least once a year. We have the specific knowledge and techniques to detect the very first signs of a problem and put in place the necessary treatment plan. 

Emerald Ash Borer
If the tree that appears to be diseased on your property is an ash tree, it is a good bet that it is infested with EAB. This beetle has been causing damage for several years in many regions of Quebec. In order to obtain a diagnosis and, if necessary, a quote, call us now at 819-801-1247.​
