No other job turns up unannounced the way emergency storm damage cleanup does. Ring (226) 546-3846 — but if a wire is involved anywhere in it, the utility takes that call before we do.
A storm on 1 July 2026 closed Mount Pleasant Road between Burtch Road and Russell Street. It is the local reference point for what a system can do here.
That kind of event does not produce one category of emergency storm damage cleanup but three. Whole trees over on the sand where the plate let go. Limbs off on the valley side where the crown was already leaning downhill. And, everywhere, unions opened just far enough that nobody noticed until months later.
Emergency storm damage cleanup deals with the first two on the day. The third is why an emergency storm damage cleanup should end with a walk round the rest of the property.
Wire involved? Hydro gets the first call, and nothing round that tree is safe to approach until they have been out — not the fence it is resting on, not the gate, not the car parked beside it.
Keep away from the standing part. Half a failure means half a tree still loaded, and the rest of it tends to arrive sooner than anybody expects.
Photograph everything before it is moved. That evidence cannot be reconstructed and the insurer will ask for it.
Then call. Tell us what came down, where it finished up, and whether anyone is trapped in or locked out.
Order of attendance follows what is at risk rather than when each call came in, and saying so beforehand is fairer than pretending otherwise.
First in the queue: trees on houses, trees closing the only way in, and trees lying across the road or the trail. Then outbuildings, vehicles, fencing, and hangers over anywhere people walk.
A tree flat in an open field, threatening nothing, is next week's job, and you will be told so.
Wood under tension behaves nothing like the same wood lying slack. Put a saw in the wrong place and it releases faster than anybody can move.
In a storm pile, every single stem is carrying load from another. Knowing what to release, and in what sequence, is the entire craft. It is why a firewood saw and good intentions are the wrong equipment for a wind-thrown crown.
Making a site safe and clearing a site are separate operations, priced on one sheet: what leaves, what is left standing, and whether the stump is dealt with today or booked.
With the dangerous part dealt with, give us twenty minutes on the rest of the garden. Wind that removed one tree has nearly always weakened a second, and dealing with that one ahead of the next system costs a fraction of dealing with it afterwards.
(226) 546-3846. Say what is lying on what. Wires mean hydro before us. Everything else is set out on the home page.
Not many jobs here stay inside one heading. Everything else is listed below.
Everything that keeps a tree in working order sits under tree trimming and pruning — clearing what has died, winning back headroom, straightening out faults early, and getting weight off a crown that is carrying too much. Done often enough, no other job on a tree costs so little.
View Tree Trimming and Pruning
A tree writes off a limb long before it lets go of it. Dead branch removal is the business of collecting those limbs first, and dead branch removal is most of what this crew does. More of them come off along this road than any other job, and none is easier to put a figure on.

A tree removal is where the options run out, not where they begin. Most tree removal enquiries turn out to be tree trimming enquiries. A few of them do not.

Crown thinning and canopy reduction get requested in a single breath, as though there were one treatment. There are two. Thinning empties a crown out without changing its shape; reduction changes the shape.

Where a tree has a defect that is worth holding together, tree cabling and bracing is the steel that holds it. There is exactly one job it does properly, and it gets sold for a great many others.
View Tree Cabling and Bracing
The stump gets its own line on the quote rather than hiding inside the felling price. A fair number of owners want the tree gone and are quite happy for the stump to stay where it is.
View Stump Grinding and RemovalSay what the tree is doing, what is beneath it, and which side of the road. A climber comes out, and what returns is a scope that spells out the brush, the cordwood and the exclusions.
Say as much as you can. Species and size, how a truck gets in, how steep it is, and what would be underneath a falling limb — each of those points the job in a different direction, and the price with it. Everything on this form is optional bar one: we need somewhere to send the answer. A phone call works too — (226) 546-3846.
