Use of cranes for safe felling

Depending on the circumstances, terrain, or context, our arborists sometimes use cranes to prevent risks. When the tree is too damaged, inaccessible to our branch collection teams, or close to a fixed structure, we call on our crane partners experienced in tree work. This facilitates timber handling, reduces risks, and ensures fast and safe felling.

There are many reasons why a tree may need to be felled. Whether it’s for safety or any other reason, it’s important to ensure that these reasons are valid before obtaining a certificate of authorization.

A dead tree

A dead tree is often structurally fragile and can collapse at any time without warning. When a dangerous tree dies, it can fall and injure someone or something. Felling the mature tree therefore becomes a necessity. It’s the responsibility of our certified arborists to recognize hazards and inform our customers. This will help you make an informed decision about when and how the tree should be felled.

A sick or old tree

When a disease is diagnosed late or cannot be treated, the tree may have to be felled. Felling infested trees is a preventive measure to prevent the spread of the disease to other plants. It is essential to have a pest tree assessed by an arboricultural expert to determine whether the disease, such as a fungus, can be treated or whether it poses a threat to your tree.

A storm or high winds

The consequences of a storm can be numerous. The branches of your large trees can be broken, they can fall on power lines, the entire tree can be uprooted, and sometimes this leads to other emergencies requiring immediate attention. Tree damage caused by wind and storms can seriously compromise a tree’s health. It’s crucial to inspect these dangerous trees quickly and properly to avoid further deterioration. To ensure public safety, our tree removal specialists will provide you with the necessary recommendations so you can make an informed decision with confidence.

An uprooted tree

Our province’s weather conditions can cause a tree to uproot itself. In such circumstances, tree removal is often unavoidable, and sometimes even urgent. Handling an uprooted tree is potentially dangerous work. In addition to heavy branches, you could also come up against utility, sewer and water pipes. It’s crucial not to attempt to cut down these dangerous trees without the proper skills and equipment. Call in an arboricultural expert to cut down the uprooted tree while minimizing the risk to your safety.

Tree location

If you’re considering a project such as landscaping a garden, creating a water feature or building a patio, but the location of one of your trees prevents you from doing so according to your landscaping plan, we can help you explore your options. Before felling the tree, pruning it or even neighbouring trees may be a solution. If you’d like to keep your tree and still go ahead with your project, we have the expertise to support you and help you achieve your goals.

The price for felling a tree varies according to several factors:

  • The size of the tree;

Tree felling with a bucket truck

The use of a bucket truck to fell a tree is necessary when a tree is dead or dying, and the arborist is unable to climb the tree due to safety concerns. This method of felling is highly safe and efficient for carrying out work. The Arbo Rive-Nord team is fully trained in how to use the equipment. Combining the experience and knowledge we’ve gained from felling trees in a variety of circumstances over the years, we form one of the most efficient teams in the industry.

Pruning and trimming

Our teams offer tree trimming and pruning services to cut back the branches on your trees.

Tree pruning

Our team of arborists can prune your trees. If you’re looking for a professional team to cut tree branches, our tree trimming team can help.

Tree pruning

Unlike pruning, the main purpose of tree trimming is to restrict the tree’s height, width or shape. However, this practice is generally considered harmful to ornamental trees.

Example

For example, pruning a balsam poplar or a white poplar is a pruning practice, which differs from pruning. Typically, these trees require pruning to remove any damaged, yellowing, dying or dead foliage. It is also essential to prune these plants to remove congested shoots.

In contrast, pruning a cherry tree to promote fruiting is a pruning practice. Applying the same techniques to a maple, for example, would be a pruning error.

Cedar hedge trimming

Our tree-felling team also offers professional cedar hedge trimming services. If you’re looking for expert arborists for hedge trimming, we can help.

Tree guying

Guying is generally used to stabilize transplanted trees typically 4 inches in diameter or larger. Guying anchors are generally shorter and stronger, as they are driven deep into the ground and exposed only a few centimeters above the soil surface.

Land clearing

Our tree-cutting team can clear residential or commercial land. Trust our team of arborists to cut down trees and clear all or part of your property.

Tree stump removal and grubbing

Our stump removal services allow us to completely remove the stump from your property. Depending on the size and type of stump, this can be done by hand or using stump removal equipment.

Once the stump has been removed, you’ll be left with a hole in your yard that needs to be filled. The filling options generally considered are to use soil or to plant a new tree.
