Tree removal

Cutting down a tree is often the most common tree service that people think of when it comes to tree services. However, we obviously do not just cut down trees. Moreover, whenever possible, we even try to avoid it when alternatives exist. Also, our tree trimmers will propose another intervention, if it is conceivable. Among the ways to postpone a tree cutting is regular care, such as pruning. Or, bracing can also be used to offset the need to cut down a tree, for example, due to storm damage, among other possibilities. However, cutting down a tree is also a preventive action, as it prevents the consequences of an unexpected fall from occurring. Our tree pruners know their trade. At your request, they will propose the most appropriate service for your particular situation.

Tree pruning

Pruning is a task that ensures optimal growing conditions for a tree. Since this technique requires it, our arborists will be concerned about the impact on your trees when they perform it. Trimming excess branches can help to free up space for a dining area. It can also provide more shade by leaving a larger branch or reduce shade by leaving a smaller branch, depending on what you are looking for. Thinning branches also provides grooming that can only enhance the look of your trees.

There is a form of pruning that you may not think about as often, but it is breathtaking. In fact, some trees are so gigantic that it takes climbing pruners to get the job done. Many people are captivated by the sight of them swinging high with their equipment in hand. It is not uncommon for the spectacle to draw a small crowd of neighbors.

Severe pruning

Severe pruning is a technique that is much more drastic and has a negative impact on the trees. When it is practiced, it removes a quantity of extra branches, compared to pruning. Topping is also part of this technique. In proceeding, the pruner does not stop at the consequences on the trees, because it has in particular an objective of safety to meet. This may be to avoid damage to infrastructure or an electrical network, buildings or traffic areas, such as walkways, bike paths or streets. The situation represents a risk and action is simply required. Severe pruning can also be done to make construction projects feasible. Severe pruning is harmful. However, it may avoid the need to cut down a tree and is therefore an acceptable lesser evil.

Gyuing

Guying is used in circumstances where a tree has lost its stability. The technique then helps it. It is therefore a prevention of undesirable subsequent consequences.

Several situations can cause the destabilization of a specimen. For example, branches that are longer on one side than on the other, because the light has soaked them more, among other things. It can be cracks in the trunk or the tearing of a branch, which threatens to develop into a risky fall.

A guying consists in installing various guy wires. These are various cables used by this technique. They are the ones that stabilize the specimen and help it to better maintain itself. It may take some time before the intended rectifications are completed. So, modifications may be necessary during this period.

The advantage of bracing is that it makes the plant more resistant to bad weather. Moreover, it does not affect the plant when it is done by certified arborists.

Stump removal

Arboriculturist from Emondage Saint-Eustache who proceeds with the removal of a stump.
Removing a stump is called grubbing. Some people believe that it is not necessary to do so. However, choosing to keep a stump is not a trivial matter. The worst of all possible outcomes is the possibility of carpenter ants moving in! Sometimes the very mention of this outcome is enough for people to decide not to take any action and to decide to try to save the tree.  

However, removing a stump is tedious and it is best to use the specialized device, namely a grinder. The latter proceeds quickly and cleanly. At Emondage Saint-Eustache, we have this device, which operates without destroying the ground.

Emerald ash borer. Detecting diseases and insect pests

The emerald ash borer is a known plague now. If you have ash trees, be aware that just because they don't look affected doesn't mean they are. In fact, this insect and its larvae can be present for a long time before any signs are apparent. When we become aware of it, it is not uncommon that it is too late to save a specimen and that it must be destroyed.

At Emondage Saint-Eustache, our tree care services include disease and insect detection. We are able to detect the presence of insects at an early stage. If you have an ash tree, it would be a good idea to contact us to make sure that the emerald ash borer is not already active. We will visit as a precautionary measure. Taking this precaution could save the life of your tree.

The ash tree is a native species in Quebec. The attacks by the emerald ash borer are so damaging that they could eradicate the entire population of this species on our territory. This shows how important prevention is.

In case of serious infestations, cutting down a tree may be necessary, even if you did not notice it. Don't take any chances and contact our arboricultural service at 450-485-5365. It will be a wise move.

Tree planting

Planting a tree is a symbolic gesture par excellence. It can make us think of any event that required sowing efforts and persevering until its outcome. So, there are so many situations that can prompt the planting of a tree. A birth, a housewarming, etc. A plant is a great gift to give. But loving trees is enough. And your own family can be the lucky recipient. Whatever your reason, our staff will be happy to assist you. Our arborists can be involved as early as the time of choosing a species. There are important considerations that may be overlooked by the homeowner. The final size of a specimen, for example. You would certainly like to know if your floor, your roof or your garage could one day be at risk of damage caused by branches or roots that would reach them. This will help you avoid the costs associated with such consequences.

Tree cutting by-law City of Saint-Eustache

Today, we have come to understand how valuable trees are. Is it clear-cutting, climate change, or both that have opened our eyes to their value? Municipalities know this too, so they regulate, including tree specimens. This includes tree cutting, pruning and even severe pruning. There are tasks that require a permit. Check out the City of St. Eustatius permit page on our website. It's a good place to start.

Liability Insurance

Before you consider cutting down a tree yourself, think about it. Even if you're good with a chainsaw, you can't ignore the fact that everything in the city is packed. The precautionary measures to be taken are important and the risks are more numerous. It's a dense environment with passers-by, other buildings nearby, traffic, sidewalks... You'll have to masterfully control the trajectory when dropping the tree or proceed in sections. In trying to save costs, you may end up incurring higher costs.
