Tree cutting, pruning and trimming in Terrebonne

Tree Removal in Terrebonne

We first plan how we are going to organize the removal of the tree. By planning the felling and the forestry equipment we are going to bring, we make the working day safer and also make the work after felling easier. We identify potential hazards in the area, such as power lines, roads, buildings, etc.

To determine the natural direction of a tree's fall, we first study the facade and its growth. We also look at the direction of the wind and whether the building or house is on a hill or not. If we are unsure of the natural direction of the fall, we use a plumb line to get a trajectory. Next, we clear the area around the intended fall direction of the tree.

Once the area is clear, we post warning signs in the direction of the tree fall and your chosen escape route.

When felling a tree, we must pay attention to the condition of the wood and use the right tool for the job. If the wood is fragile, removal can be dangerous. We can use several different types of tools to remove a tree. Larger trees require more powerful tools.

After the tree has been cut, we remove all the debris. You can also add compost and/or wood ash to enrich the soil and add organic matter to it to improve water holding capacity. Compost and/or wood ash should be added sparingly and only when the area is completely level.

Cedar hedge trimming in Terrebonne

In Quebec, cedar hedges are quite common. They embellish a property both aesthetically and functionally. They create a defined space and provide privacy between neighbors. In addition, it makes it possible to delimit precise zones in gardens and creates an attractive landscape element. The species that lives in Quebec is the western cedar. A beautiful landscape will look even better if you prune your shrubs and trees to keep them in shape and well maintained. If you want to have a nice, dense, green and healthy hedge, there are things you need to consider, including pruning. It is also a great alternative because it is inexpensive.

However, a hedge must be trimmed every year in the right way to stay healthy and beautiful. Trimming your hedges each year ensures control of the development of your cedars. This prevents them from getting out of control and causing problems later on. If pruned correctly, they will remain at the correct height for the rest of their lives. Trimming the branches of a hedge provides dense foliage and controls the size and growth of the plant.

Sometimes it will not be possible to do so. Drastic cuts that can endanger the tree may become the only option to consider. So get your hedges in top shape by having them maintained by a pro like us.

Detection of tree diseases in Terrebonne

We now know that environmental stress plays an important role in the proliferation of diseases or insect attacks. This is why we recommend a number of preventive measures for each treatment.

Collecting dead leaves in your garden is one of the main practices to adopt. Your trees will be healthier as a result.

At the first sign of disease, you can also prune dangerous parts of the tree. It is important that you know how to prune the tree. Pruning is one of the best solutions not only aesthetically, but also to get rid of damaged branches and make others stronger. Plant pruning involves studying the location and condition of the tree to determine what type of work is most appropriate.

Do not work in areas close to the roots, especially in masonry or excavation.

You should use a fertilizer high in phosphorus to provide the necessary nutrients.

We recommend adding compost and mulch around each tree. Trees are most effective when they are well nourished and hydrated, which makes them more effective in controlling insect and pest infestations, and also more resistant to disease. It is an ecological, durable and inexpensive solution that will allow the tree to remain healthy and adapt well to its environment.

It is important that trees are assessed regularly to avoid any potential problems. Thus, the tree can be cared for more effectively and be healthy in the long term.

Trees that are pruned regularly are much less likely to get sick or be infested with pests. They are healthy, look better and are easier to care for.
