Tree Inspection

Tree Inspection: Insect & Disease Identification

Understanding the health of your trees is vital, especially in Ontario, where certain pests and diseases can pose significant risks to both trees and surrounding ecosystems. Our certified arborists can identify common threats like the Emerald Ash Borer, Dutch Elm Disease, or Oak Wilt, and provide treatment options or preventative care to protect your trees. Regular inspections help ensure your trees thrive and remain safe for your property.

Hazard Assessment

Trees add beauty and value to your property, but they can also pose hazards if not properly maintained. Our team evaluates trees for structural weaknesses, potential for falling branches, and other risks that could compromise safety during Ontario's harsh winters or stormy seasons. We provide professional recommendations to mitigate risks, ensuring your trees are both beautiful and safe for your home or business.

Critical Root Zone Assessment

The health of your tree starts at the roots. Construction, soil compaction, and poor drainage can damage the critical root zone, leading to long-term health issues. Our arborists assess this vital area to ensure proper soil conditions, nutrient availability, and root protection strategies. This is especially important for urban areas in Ontario, where trees often face root stress due to construction or landscaping projects.

Distinctive Tree Permit Assessment (City Permits)

In many Ontario municipalities, including Toronto and Ottawa, permits are required to remove or significantly prune large or distinctive trees. Our team specializes in navigating these regulations, conducting thorough assessments to determine if your tree qualifies under local bylaws. We handle the paperwork and provide detailed reports to support your permit application, ensuring compliance with city requirements while protecting Ontario’s urban forest.

Structural Assessment

The structural integrity of a tree determines its safety and longevity. Our experts conduct detailed evaluations of your tree’s branches, trunk, and overall framework to identify potential issues like decay, cracks, or poor branch attachments. This proactive approach prevents failures during Ontario’s high winds or ice storms, keeping your property and loved ones safe. We offer solutions like pruning, cabling, or bracing to address structural concerns.
