Tree felling
Tree cutting is an operation that no one appreciates having to do as a tree service, when you know how precious a tree is. That's why, before cutting down a tree, our tree trimmers will weigh all alternatives to save the specimen and propose them to you. You may be pleasantly surprised, as many others are, to avoid taking this final step. However, when no other solution is possible, the tree must obviously be cut down, often to prevent someone from being injured or a building from being damaged, among many other possible valid justifications.
The most effective way to push back this extreme measure as far as possible is prevention. Prevention is synonymous with diligent maintenance. If this is done far enough in advance, periodic pruning can be carried out. Otherwise, even if you do it before you have to cut, but a little too late, you may have to prune a large section of a tree and risk harming it. However, unforeseen events can always occur, such as a storm that breaks a large branch. In such cases, bracing can seriously extend the life of a tree, a service that many homeowners do not often consider.
Rest assured that our experienced tree trimmers will use their expertise to meet your needs. They will also do it in a way that will present you with the intervention that best suits your specific case.

Tree pruning
Pruning is an operation that, for its part, is intended to protect the health of a tree. At least that is what the rules of the art prescribe, which our arborists respect at all times. However, the operation is carried out to meet your objectives. It may be to give your specimen a little beauty makeover, just to make it feel good, or to clear an area of your yard that is clogged with branches. To create a peaceful spot where you can sip a cool lemonade during a heat wave, for example. Pruning is also the perilous exercise of having to proceed while being climbed at high altitude when the tree specimens are gigantic. We also have experienced pruners for this activity, which often attracts a crowd of curious people.
Tree trimming
Pruning is something else entirely. The technique is radical and for this reason it puts a lot of stress on the plant. It is about cutting a significant proportion of the specimen. Otherwise, it can only be a topping. Except that removing the top of a tree is a risky act for the arboricultural health, so much so that some municipalities prohibit it. You can't prune just to control nuisance without harming a tree. Pruning is therefore a technique to be reserved for situations of second last resort, at the risk of compromising the integrity of infrastructure, buildings or property, private or public, or to prevent injury. When the completion of authorized work is also compromised, this may also be a good reason to prune. Another valid use is to clear a path for pedestrian, bicycle or automobile traffic, when branches have wandered in or are close to doing so. It is therefore essential to verify the acceptable objectives before proceeding. Nevertheless, pruning is one of the operations that can be preventive. Indeed, it is sometimes possible to prune for safety reasons or to ensure the development of a project without having to cut down a tree.
Tree cabling
Do you know about guying? More than you probably think, because staking a young tree to a stake in the ground to help it grow is part of the arsenal of techniques that are part of it. We usually do this technique in a more complex way than that, but its purpose is precisely to give back to a tree specimen its stability, which has been lost during its development or during a storm for example. Worrying cracks sometimes form. When you see them, it is good to have them evaluated. If there is indeed a risk that the tree or a significant part of it will fall, then bracing can prevent a tree felling.
The technique consists in putting in place guy wires, a kind of special cables in order to correct the loss of balance, but also to help the tree to get back on its own eventually. Adjustments can be made to follow the evolution of the tree's capacities and the pushing trajectories of its branches or trunk over time. Often, one wonders if this can damage the tree. Not, at least not when an experienced arborist is doing the operation.

Stump grinding
Grubbing is the process of removing a stump from the ground, including its roots when the job is complete. Often people who cut a tree themselves do not bother to remove the stump. This is understandable, because the task is not easy despite appearances. Except that if you do this, in addition to the risk of bumping into or making our yard look unkempt, you may find that insects take up residence there. This may seem like a small matter to you, but when those bugs are carpenter ants, opinions change quickly and regrets appear. Your best insurance against unforeseen inconveniences is to have both the stump and the roots removed by our team at Emondage Repentigny. We have a stump grinder that can get the job done quickly.
Wood chipping
Do you like your yard to be spotless in every way? Then you'll appreciate chipping. This service is performed after a tree or several trees have been felled or a large portion of their branches have been cut off. They leave a lot of debris on the ground, but these services are necessary! Very few homeowners like to go through the hassle of collecting and disposing of the debris by taking it somewhere afterwards, so discouraging. Sometimes it's simply because you don't know what to do. That's why, many times, piles of branches accumulate on the grounds over time. Chipping is a service that can be used in these cases as well, without having to resort to cutting services first.
Chipping is performed with a chipper, which reduces the wood to chips. This specialized machine works much faster than if you were to do the job yourself with a chainsaw.
What to do with the remaining wood? The chips can be used in many ways, for example you can include them in your compost. Some research on the web will inspire you. If you don't like this option, no problem, we'll take it away and get rid of it. In any case, the cleaning and disposal will have been done quickly. What a relief!

Size trimming
A training pruning gives the desired shape. That is its purpose. Why would you want to control the shape of a tree specimen? For several reasons. First, just for appearance. A given shape may very well be part of your landscape design. Trees with ball-shaped foliage, for example. Second, you may want to keep a natural look while giving a little boost to the symmetry. It can also be to free the base of the trees of all its branches over time, so that you can easily put a folding chair there when the desire to snooze in the shade takes hold of you once the plant is big enough.
Training pruning offers other benefits. It helps prolong the life of your tree specimens, it promotes their growth, and if you have fruit trees, it will make their production more abundant.
The technique is much more meticulous than any other. It does not carry the high risks of pruning for the arboricultural health. In fact, it is the factor that encourages many owners to do it themselves. However, it is also the technique that requires the most knowledge and skill. Inexperience can be a risk factor in a safe technique. So, leave it to the professionals so that you don't clumsily cause irreparable harm to your trees.

Emerald ash borer. Disease and pest detection
The emerald ash borer is an insect that devastates ash trees, which are native to Quebec. The insect is so efficient that it could make this species disappear permanently from our territory. The insect, especially its larva, can operate for years before any signs of its presence are visible. This means that when the time comes to see it in activity, it is not uncommon for the ravages to be sufficiently advanced that the only option is to cut down the tree. To have a chance of saving ash trees from EAB, it is important to detect this insect early in its attack. Our arborists are able to do this. So, call Emondage Repentigny at 579-795-1014 if you have ash trees, and we will come out and do a reconnaissance visit. After all, prevention is better than cure, as the saying goes.
Planting: All booked up for 2023
Tree planting
Planting a tree is a gesture filled with symbolism. This attachment probably comes from the fact that it is a living being that contributes so much to the well-being of humans. In fact, when you're looking for something unique to give as a gift, give a tree. It's the perfect way to celebrate traditional or family events. Although many people do this, you can choose a particular species and the specimen will look unique because it will be planted in the recipient's home. But whether it's your home or a loved one's that you've had a tree planted, it's best to give yourself the best chance of success by dealing with experts. The advice that our expert arborists will provide will be invaluable. They will be able to recommend the safest location to avoid future complications. They will also know, among other things, how far the roots will spread and how high and wide the branches will reach.
Felling regulations Repentigny
Trees have become such a valuable part of our lives that they are now part of municipal by-laws. Owners cannot do whatever they want with their arboreal specimens. So, whether it is for a felling or even for pruning, it is better to take your information. When it comes to felling, you can visit our Felling Certificate page to learn more about the subject in your area.
Liability insurance
Before you think about cutting down your own trees, think seriously. First, you need the right equipment. Second, you need to master a certain skill set. At least to avoid breaking something or hurting people or yourself. In the city, this work is much more meticulous than in the forest. There are more residences nearby.

Our experienced arborists will cut down the tree, whether in the city or the country, with all the necessary precautions.
