Tree removal

Cutting down a tree is an act that can be difficult to accept. After all, it is a mature being that we must part with and that provided us with so many benefits. However, since cutting down a tree is an irrevocable task, our tree pruners will do everything in their power to offer you other avenues if they exist.

To avoid having your large plants suffer the misfortune of being cut down too early in their life, offer them regular maintenance now, which is a guarantee of longevity. This is the best prevention. Also, a preventive pruning from time to time allows to avoid many risky or problematic developments.

However, from a certain point of view, tree cutting is also a preventive act, because key branches, or even an entire tree, could fall down if this precaution is not taken quickly enough. The potential consequences will be material damage (to private or public property or infrastructure), obstruction of traffic areas or even injury or death to people.

Sometimes, fortuitous events occur. A thunderstorm, for example. In this case, it is a guying that can be useful, even preventing a tree from being cut down. Our tree pruners will know how to present you with the optimal avenue depending on the conditions.

Tree pruning

Pruning is a task where pruners perform pruning while ensuring that the tree development progresses smoothly. However, when it comes to pruning, the goals are varied. You may want to free up branching that is blocking the area where you plan to install a rest area. Your expectations may be purely aesthetic, so that your plants show the quality of the care you give them. Pruning can also direct light or shade to suit the uses of various sections of your property.

Pruners who perform this task sometimes have to work at heights. Climbers do this, and many people find it breathtaking to watch them suspended in mid-air, working with their chainsaws in hand.

Severe pruning

Severe pruning is a more drastic service than regular pruning. Moreover, it is harmful to large plants. The pruner then proceeds by removing the head or very large proportions of a tree (all the lower branches among others).

The goal is so important that health considerations cannot be allowed to interfere. Possible, often imminent damage is at stake. Radical action is essential. Severe pruning also makes possible constructions, which otherwise could not take place. Severe pruning causes damage to trees, but isn't it better than cutting down a tree?

Gyuing

In situations where tree stability is at stake, guying can be applied. This is a technique that aims to temporarily provide a tree with auxiliary stability. Here we are in another preventive intervention, in that it avoids unfortunate consequences if this work had not taken place.

The causes of the problems are structural in nature, including a poor distribution of branch weight during development. Perhaps because one side received more light than another. Or, following a bad weather, worrying cracks along the trunk.

The technique consists of strategically placing various cables, called guy wires. These provide a stabilizing crutch for the specimen until it can once again stand solidly on its own. Corrections may have to be made over a long period of time. In such cases, episodic adjustments will probably be useful.

One of the advantages of the technique is that it provides incidental robustness so that the large plant can withstand bad weather.

This is a task that extends the life of a tree, protects it and, in addition, it is without risk to the specimen arboriculture, as long as it is a certified arborist who takes care of it.

Stump removal

Arboriculturist of Emondage Saint-Sauveur, who proceeds to the removal of a tree.
Grubbing consists of removing a stump. Some people don't see the point of bothering with such work and prefer to leave the tree relics in place. This attitude ignores the consequences that may result from it. Termites or carpenter ants could eventually be attracted. While this may be the worst and rarest of scenarios, it is nevertheless possible. In fact, it's often the grueling nature of the task that stops many. When you use our stump grinder at Emondage Saint-Sauveur, you get a clean, fast and efficient job. And that, without damaging your property.

Shredding of branches

Shredding of branches in Saint-Sauveur. The work is done by Emondage Saint-Sauveur.
The shredding of branches is a task that deserves to be better known. It can follow a pruning or a felling of a tree. So, you usually have no trouble finding what to do with the biggest logs: logs to sit on, keep them for the fireplace or the wood stove, give them to a relative... But nobody wants the branches. But no one wants them. And after all that tree work, a whole pile of them is strewn across your lawn.

That's when our branch shredder comes into play. It will shred them quickly and efficiently. And it can handle both the after-work wood and your long-standing pile of branches, without us even having done any tree work before. After all, this pile is bulky, ugly and may attract unwanted insects or animals.

You can save the resulting chips for uses that make your life easier. For example, as mulch in a flower bed or in your compost. But if you want us to get rid of them, it will be done.

So, the solution to that annoying pile of wood is obvious: ask us to go and do a branch shredding. Your mind will be wonderfully free after our visit.

Training pruning

Training pruning of a fruit tree in Saint-Sauveur.
Training pruning focuses on the shape of the trees. Its name is therefore characteristic. But what exactly is it? It is about the silhouette, the structure or the control of the development of the trees. It also extends the life of the trees and stimulates their growth. In the case of fruit trees, the latter benefit means more fruit at harvest time. This technique is the most gentle of all, obviously more than a felling, but even more than a pruning; notably because it is spread over the long term. The knowledge and the precision of the necessary gestures are on the other hand also the most demanding. Our arborists have what it takes to ensure that your trees will receive good care during their training pruning.

Cedar hedge trimming

Cedar pruning done by Emondage Saint-Sauveur.
Cedars are the preferred means of delimiting land in Quebec. This is probably due to their qualities: natural, affordable and their soundproofing effect when placed in a hedge. However, these trees grow quickly and without proper care, they become much less advantageous: ugly, with holes, stunted, and therefore their assets are no longer there.

They need an annual trimming. This requires knowledge and dexterity. At Emondage Saint-Sauveur, our team has the knowledge and skill to do this service. So get in touch with us right away by filling out the form at the top of the page.

Emerald ash borer. Detecting diseases and insect pests

The emerald ash borer is a beetle that can be active for a long time before you even know it is there. So, if you own ash trees, the beetle may be operating without your knowledge. Often, when its presence is finally noticed, it is too late.

At Emondage Saint-Sauveur, one of the feathers in our tree care cap is the early detection of the emerald ash borer. Even if you believe that this pest is not present in your trees of this species, it would be wise to ask us for a preventive visit. This foresight could save the life of your plant by avoiding the ravages of this pernicious insect pest.

The ash tree is a native species in Quebec and the EAB, through its damage, could decimate the entire colony. So wherever we can prevent it, we help the cause.

It is very likely that a tree will have to be cut down when the larvae of this insect manage to infest it in a serious way. So, act now for the good of your ash trees, by contacting our arboriculture service at 514-800-6310.

Tree planting

Planting a tree is a meaningful gesture. After all, a tree is alive and it enhances our space and provides us with immense benefits throughout its existence. So plant as many trees as you can.

No reason is wrong. Are you simply a nature lover? Do you want to make it the centerpiece of a landscape design, or give a tree as a gift, especially for a birthday or anniversary?  

Our team can provide you with valuable recommendations, right from the moment you choose a location and species. We will take into account the surrounding conditions so that the plant can flourish without causing problems, for those we can control. Sometimes homeowners forget that trees have roots and that some distance from the ground is necessary, among other precautions. Arboricultural skills are useful even when planting a tree. This avoids future consequences and even expensive costs.

Tree cutting by-law City of Saint-Sauveur

The value of trees is now recognized because of the many benefits they provide. Also, cities have regulations, some of which affect the felling of trees. The goal is to control these actions to avoid abuses. The regulations also concern the severe pruning of trees, even on a regular basis. A permit may be required to proceed with a felling.

Liability Insurance

Are you seriously thinking of doing a tree removal yourself? You think your equipment will finally come in handy. Or you could just rent it? Don't underestimate the importance of safety. Even someone who is experienced in working in the woods doesn't always think about the extent of the precautions that need to be taken in urban areas. There are other buildings, both yours and neighbors, that are at risk until a tree falls. Not to mention that in its path, people inadvertently passing by may be struck, possibly fatally, or property damage may occur. Even if you think you're saving money, you could be over budget due to a dramatic consequence. The arborist profession is riddled with little suspected dangers. Our team of arborists have the specialized knowledge and skills required. In addition, we have the relevant insurance policies. In fact, those who cut down trees in their job are quick to call on our services for this simple reason
