A big tree over the house should not keep you up at night
Maybe a limb is hanging over the roof. Maybe the maple drops dead sticks on the driveway every windy night, or a stump has sat in the lawn for years. One of our arborists stands under it with you, points out what matters and puts the work and the cost on paper. That first look is free, and booking is up to you.

Whole streets of trees are reaching old age at the same time
Applewood was apple orchard land before the houses went up in the 1950s. Most of the big maples, oaks and spruces on these lots were planted in that first wave, so a lot of them are now around seventy years old.
That age brings the same problems to many yards at once: heavy side limbs, dead wood in the upper crown, decay where old branches were cut badly decades ago, and roots lifting driveways. Spotting them now is cheaper than paying for a storm cleanup later.
Yards that back onto the Etobicoke Creek ravine need an extra look. Trees on a slope lean toward the light and the water, and wet soil holds roots less firmly in a high wind.
A tree or limb came down in a storm
Call us, even after hours. Stay away from any wire the tree is touching and call Alectra Utilities first if a power line is down.

What your written quote covers
- Which trees, which limbs and how much comes off
- Cleanup and hauling of every branch and log
- Whether a City permit is needed, and who applies
- One total price that does not change
Removing a tree 15 cm or wider needs a City permit
Measure the trunk. At 15 cm across or more, the City's private tree by-law applies. The application runs $399.77 for one tree; add $139.72 per additional healthy tree. Plan on a City decision within 30 business days.
A tree that is dead or dying carries no fee. After removal, you owe the City one native sapling per 15 cm of trunk diameter taken. Tree trimming is exempt, so pruning never needs an application.
Curbside boulevard trees belong to Mississauga itself, and 311 takes those calls.
The kind of work we do
Questions people ask before booking
Is the quote really free?
Yes. The visit, the advice and the written price cost you nothing, and saying no costs nothing too.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our full insurance covers every job we take on, small or large.
How soon can you come out?
Most quote visits land on the calendar a few days after you call. Damage that blocks a door or a driveway, or rests on the house, gets handled first.
Do you clean up afterwards?
Yes. Brush gets chipped, logs get hauled and the driveway gets blown clean. Want firewood or mulch kept? Just say so.
When is the best time to prune?
Most species handle pruning in any season. Oaks do not. Their pruning belongs in the November-to-March window, while the sap beetles that spread oak wilt lie dormant.
