Late autumn or winter is often the ideal time to prune many trees, as they are dormant and produce less sap. This also reduces the presence of insects that can spread disease.

For flowering trees, we recommend waiting until early spring, or until they have gone dormant, before pruning. We can help you determine the best time to prune your trees.

The cost of an arborist’s services depends mainly on the type of work you need.

For pruning or trimming, prices generally range from $100 to $2,000 per tree.

If you need to cut down a dead or dangerous tree, rates vary from $100 to $2,500, depending on the difficulty of the job.

For grubbing, including removal of residues, count between $50 and $600 per stump.

It can be difficult to make an accurate diagnosis from a distance, but our team is ready to help you. To do this, we’ll need to know the following and schedule an appointment with an arborist:

• Photos of your tree, especially of the affected areas such as bark, leaves, etc.

• A description of the tree’s location, including whether it is close to a road, house, etc. It is important to be aware of any physical or environmental factors that may influence its condition, such as the use of de-icing salt.

• The municipality where the tree is located.

• Details of how long the problem has lasted and what has already been done to remedy it.

• Information on any maintenance work already carried out on the tree.

These details will help us to better understand the situation and identify the cause of the problem affecting your tree.
