Do you have a tree stump taking up precious space in your yard? Is it unappealing or infested with unwanted insects?

Do you have trees that are cracked or seem to be leaning heavily? Even though it is leaning or has cracks, there is still hope for a tree.
You can use cabling and bracing to support or correct compromised trees. Our arborists know how and where to position the cables correctly to prevent girdling.
Do you have trees that have fallen due to heavy weather? Do you have a hazardous tree that is at risk of falling over?
Unexpected things can happen at a moment's notice. In times of crisis, our dedicated arborists are always available for any emergency tree services you may need.
Trees that are cracked and leaning or have dying branches may be a sign that they are becoming a threat to you or your property. It is best to consult with a certified arborist for an in-depth risk assessment if you are still unsure. Vines such as ivy can also cause severe issues and should always be trimmed down and kept from climbing your trees. They hold in moisture, preventing your trees from drying correctly and making them susceptible to rot and decay.
Topping a tree may seem like an immediate solution, but it can have many harmful long-term effects. It leaves a large open wound on the tree, opening it up to disease, insect infestation, and decay.
The tree will also try to compensate and rapidly grow three to five new tops. Each one of these will create a weak point in the tree's structural integrity, which could turn into a safety issue in the future. Not to mention, it makes the tree aesthetically unappealing. A crown reduction is a more viable solution.
There are substantial advantages to tree trimming. It promotes Springtime growth. It reduces the probability of branches falling and the likelihood of disease and insect infestation. It boosts the aesthetic appeal of trees and prevents limbs from growing overly broad or brittle. It also prevents branches from competing for space and expanding in a manner that creates structural weak points. On average, you should trim trees every two to five years, and a certified tree trimmer can determine the optimal pruning period for your specific trees.
There are usually signs when removing a tree becomes necessary. They may be showing signs of disease and decay or infested with insects that could spread to the other surrounding trees. They may be outgrowing their environment or crowding other trees. High wind conditions can create a potential for damage to buildings and other property.
Whatever the reason for taking down a tree, removing it should be done as a last resort. When a tree removal service is needed, we take all precautions to minimize any impact removing a tree will have on your property. Our crews have exceptional tree-cutting skills and are highly knowledgeable in all removals, including climbing, rigging, aerial lifts, and using cranes.
More and more cities in Canada are making it a requirement to obtain a tree removal permit to avoid unnecessary clearing and to keep a positive impact on the environment. In most cases, you will need authorization for tree removal in Abbotsford, and you may be required to plant a new tree to replace the one you had removed. Check the City of Abbotsford tree permits and tree removal guidelines.

Trees improve the value of our homes and the enjoyment we get from our surroundings. Our trees add to the aesthetic value of our neighborhoods, enhance our environment, and contribute to our community's health and social well-being. Abbotsford is home to a diverse collection of tree species, each with a unique set of trimming and pruning requirements and optimal times of the year to tend to those needs.
Abbotsford is home to many towering fir trees, which you can find around the city. Fir trees are generally low-maintenance as they don't require much trimming and pruning.
The best time to trim or prune fir trees is in late autumn/early winter or late winter/early spring. However, you can remove dead, broken, or diseased branches at any time of the year.
Hemlock trees are easily spotted because the very tip of the tree tends to droop over to one side. They only require a little routine maintenance in most cases. Still, they may need their branches occasionally pruned because of disease or damage caused by weather.
The best time to trim or prune hemlock trees is in late autumn/early winter or late winter/early spring.
Pine trees are more likely to be found on mountain slopes than in the valley so you will see only a few around Abbotsford. You can spot them by their needles which grow in bunches.
In general, pine trees only need to have their branches pruned due to weather damage or to control the tree's development. The best time to trim or prune pine trees is in late winter/early spring.
Cedar trees can reach great heights and are particularly common in this part of the country. They are one of the less complicated trees to work with because their wood is light and easier to manage.
The best time to trim or prune cedar trees is in late autumn/early winter or late winter/early spring. If you have cedar hedges on your property, you can trim them anytime during the spring, summer, or fall.
Many types of maple trees around Abbotsford exist, including Queen Elizabeth maple, trident maple, and Douglas maple. They are plentiful in the natural environment and our yards and gardens.
The best time to trim or prune most maple trees is in late spring/early summer when the leaves have reached their full size and turned a dark green in color.
Birch trees are a great addition to any property with their attractive peeling bark and lush green foliage. You can prune them annually to remove dead or diseased branches and promote healthy growth.
The best time to trim or prune birch trees is in late summer/early autumn. It would be best not to prune them in spring or early summer because they will have a large sap flow after their winter rest.
You can distinguish honey locust by their fern-like leaves and relatively open, airy branching pattern. They require little pruning other than removing branches that are dying or diseased.
The best time to trim or prune honey locust trees is in late winter/early spring or late autumn/early winter. You can prune a few small branches in the summer once the leaves reach full size.
Oak trees have a lifespan of up to a thousand years and can grow tall and broad. You can quickly identify them by their acorns and the unique lobes on their leaves.
It would be best not to trim or prune oak trees in summer because they are susceptible to oak wilt. The best time to trim or prune oak trees is throughout the winter, late autumn to early spring.
Flowering Cherry trees can be vulnerable to insect and fungal disease infestations. Annual pruning will help keep your tree healthy by thinning out branches and allowing for better light and air circulation.
The best time to trim or prune cherry trees is in late winter/early spring or after all the blossoms have fallen from the tree. However, you can do regular maintenance on cherry trees throughout the year.
Weeping willow trees can grow quite large, with draping branches and flowing leaves. They have a high degree of flexibility, enabling them to withstand severe weather conditions and strong winds.
The best time to trim or prune willow trees is in late autumn/early winter or late winter/early spring. They can be pruned as late as March but doing so will significantly slow down the tree's growth for that year.
