Tree-work Services Your Arborist Can Do for You In Vancouver

Living in Canada, we are pretty much familiar with trees and wooded areas in general. After all, Canada’s forests make up 40% of its 979 million hectares. While this brings a ton of perks such as cleaner air and overall picturesque surroundings, having several trees within your property can also be a bit of a safety hazard.  Trees can crash down on a residential property during bad storms. Infested branches that have turned brittle over time can strike an unsuspecting passerby, and branches can get caught up in electrical wires. Tree-work related incidents occur more commonly than you think and even if the number of incidents reported drop down from year to year, it’s still one too many accidents waiting to happen. If you have several trees within your property, it might be wise call in a professional arborist in your area that can help you lessen the safety risks. 

Here are some services that your professional tree-surgeon can help you with In Vancouver

Pruning

If you have an overgrown tree (or bush) in your property, it would be good to have them pruned regularly. Doing this not only increases growth or fruitfulness, but this also prevents from having tree branches and stems from invading your neighbor’s space and possibly hurting a passerby in case they fall off. Pruning can also prevent accidents from occurring. A well-kept tree (and yard) also adds to the landscape appeal of your property, thereby increasing its value. 

Emergency Tree Removal

Trees can become a safety hazard, especially during hurricane seasons.  While most tropical cyclones that enter the Canadian Hurricane Centre Response zone has already undergone what’s called an extratropical transition and are not fully tropical anymore, those can still produce damaging winds. Factor that in with an old tree that might be infested with diseases causing the wood to turn brittle and you have an accident waiting to happen. An arborist can help you prevent these accidents by inspecting the trees within your property and removing which ones post the greatest risks. If a tree has already fallen, our professional arborists from JD Tree Cutting Service in Vancouver can also take the trouble of hauling it out off your hands. 

Stump Grinding and Removal

Did you have a tree cut off that has left an unsightly stump in your yard?  This is something a professional arborist can provide a solution to. You might think this is an easy enough job to do on your own, but this one could potentially break ones back doing this without proper training and proven methods in practice. Remember that you’re not only removing the stump, you’re also removing its roots that have grown into the ground. Unless you’re confident in your skills and methods of doing this, this is a job that’s better left to the hands of capable professionals.
