Tree removal

Tree removal is probably the very first service you think of when it comes to tree service companies. But tree service companies rarely limit themselves to cutting down trees. Moreover, when it comes to cutting down trees, our tree trimmers are committed to evaluating all the solutions that would allow us to avoid going to this extreme. This precaution is part of the rules of the art. 

In your opinion, what is the ideal means of prevention? It is to take care of your trees from a young age. But it's never too late to start either, of course. Each intervention can avoid having to move on to another that presents more risks for a tree. For example, formation pruning or pruning is the safest, and these techniques can prevent later pruning or felling. But sometimes, either because you waited too long or a weather event damaged the trees, you may need to consider pruning or guying. Our pruners are able to accurately assess the condition of your trees and suggest the most appropriate method.

Tree pruning

Pruning is a quiet technique, one might say. Its purpose is to remove only essential branches and it is a longer term process. You may ask our arborists to remove branches that are stretching a little too far in order to install a hot tub, for example. Pruning can also be done to lighten the visual impact of an eye-catching tangle of branches or to improve symmetry. However, there is a form of pruning that is anything but peaceful: the type of high acrobatics that requires our pruners to be suspended high above the ground with a chainsaw in their hands. The scene is so suspenseful that it is not uncommon for a crowd of onlookers to form. 

Tree trimming

Pruning is as radical as it gets, except for the felling, of course. It consists of removing a larger quantity of branches than in the case of pruning. The pruner can then cut the entire top or all the branches at the base of a large plant, among other possibilities. Unlike pruning, the pruning technique is not distracted by concerns about the impact on the specimen. 

This radical technique is appropriate when, among other things, infrastructures, buildings, traffic areas, goods... need to be protected against the threatening development of a good part of the branches of a specimen. Intervention becomes more imperative because a tree has been planted where it should not have been, or has been overdue. Pruning can also allow you to carry out one of your landscaping projects. However, there are regulatory constraints to pruning in some municipalities. It is therefore important to find out more. 

Pruning causes significant stress to a tree. Therefore, it is preferable to avoid it as long as possible. But if it has to be done to avoid cutting down a tree and have a chance to save it, it is a good thing. The safety motives justify it too, of course.

Tree cabling and tree bracing

A guying intervenes when the stability of a tree is compromised. It aims to provide a temporary balance until a specimen reaches it again by itself. The technique is therefore a preventive measure, since it allows us to avoid consequences that we would rather try to avoid. 

The development of trees does not always occur without obstacles. Among the problems that can occur is a poor distribution of weight, when the branches have grown more on one side than on the other. It is also possible that weather incidents have caused worrying cracks that have severely precariousized the trunk or an important branch, which could completely fracture and fall. In order not to damage the structure or the overall look, or even the life of the specimen, bracing is then recommended. 

Guying is the installation of guy wires, which are specialized cables that hold or redirect a component of the tree in place for as long as it takes. This may be quite a long time. In addition, adjustments to the device should be made as the tree evolves. Thus equipped, the specimen is able to withstand the attacks of bad weather. The arsenal is safe for the plant when it is done by knowledgeable arborists.

Stump grinding

Grubbing is often omitted after a tree is cut down. This is an important step, however, because an abandoned stump causes many problems. The least desirable of these are certainly the carpenter ants. However, in order to carry out a proper stump removal, including the removal of roots, it is necessary to use a stump grinder, the specialized equipment dedicated to this task. At Emondage Joliette, we have this equipment and the experience to proceed without damaging your lawn. 

Wood chipping

Chipping of branches in Joliette. The work is done by Emondage Joliette.
Chipping is a service that few people know about, but those who do are sorry they didn't take advantage of it before. After pruning or felling a tree, it is indeed very practical to reduce the branches to chips. The main advantage is to shorten the time it takes to clean up the residues that litter your lawn. You can keep the logs that come from the trunk or very large branches. But as for useless branches, chipping is a good idea. You also save yourself the hassle of having to carry the wood somewhere or store the branches until you do. Which you could put off for too long. 

But we chop. Your branches will be chipped with our chipper, the specialized machine for this purpose. You'll see that using this equipment gets the job done quickly. You don't have to have pruned, trimmed or cut down trees, you can call us to take care of a pile of branches on your property. Especially since it is detrimental to the view and can attract insects or animals. 

If you were thinking of doing it yourself, handling the chainsaw will take more time and you will have to dispose of the wood afterwards. Also, handling a chipper is dangerous, so it's best to let a company do it.  On our side, either we leave with the shavings to unload them or we leave them to you at your request, to use them as you wish. Ask us for information: as mulch for example, they could reduce the watering needs of your plants. Finally, have your branches shredded, and free your mind from this task that is constantly postponed. 

Tree training

Training pruning of a fruit tree in Joliette.
Training pruning allows us to give a tree the desired shape. The technique also promotes the growth of large plants and strengthens them, thereby increasing their longevity. In the case of fruit trees, fruit production is stimulated. In other words, the fruit harvest will be more abundant. 

In addition, the technique is gentle on the tree specimen, not producing on it the shock of pruning. On the contrary, it even contributes to the good health of the plant. This is what leads many owners to try it. But an irreparable act could be committed. Know-how is essential to carry out this task. Our arborists know how to do it, you will be in good hands with them. 

Cedar hedge

There is nothing better than a cedar hedge to encircle your property. The popularity of this option speaks for itself. But cedars grow very quickly and can present unsightly gaps if not well maintained. They need annual pruning. There is a good time to do this. Therefore, pruning should preferably be done during this period.  

A well-stocked, uniform and elegant hedge requires the good care of experience. Emondage Joliette has trimmed many hedges in the course of its existence. Fill out the form on this page to join us. 

Emerald ash borer. Disease and pest detection

The emerald ash borer is a real scourge for this native tree species in Quebec. It is to the point where this species could become extinct on our land. If you own ash trees, you should know that this insect can be extremely difficult to spot during the first years of its attack. This is simply because the attack begins in the larval stage. Also, it is not uncommon that when its presence is noticed, it is too late to intervene other than by felling. 

Among the range of our tree maintenance services, at Emondage Joliette, is the detection of diseases and pests. We are qualified to detect the emerald ash borer early on, the only way to have a chance of getting rid of it and saving a specimen affected by this insect. So contact us for an inspection, even if you think the bug is not present, because you never know with it. 

Even when no external signs are visible, the larvae may have done so much damage that a tree must be removed. Also, it is strongly recommended to contact our arboricultural service at 450-499-7775. This way, you will be doing the right thing for your ash trees, if you have any.

Planting: All booked up for 2023

Tree planting

Planting a tree is a pleasant task that is the beginning of a whole series of happy moments that will be spent in its presence. There is no lack of good reasons to do so. Each planting is another step in the realization of the landscape that you compose over time, for your family. Or you can give it as a gift for a special event. Involve us early in the process and we can offer you valuable advice. Choosing the right species and location to avoid complications once the tree is mature is not always easy, and we can help you at this stage. At the time of planting, it is about their maintenance that you can ask us.  

Tree cutting regulations Joliette

If only because of the awareness that the climate emergency has aroused, almost every municipality now has a bylaw concerning tree cutting, even pruning or other tree maintenance. A permit may be required. Visit our Felling Certificate page to be well informed. 

Liability insurance​

Before venturing out on your own to do a logging job, you should weigh the decision. Even if you already have the required equipment, or are considering renting it, you may be overlooking an important aspect. Compared to forests, the conditions for felling trees in the city come in a context of multiple obstacles: infrastructures, constructions, goods, passers-by... are present or potentially present. Experience and know-how are therefore required to properly prepare the felling, to adequately orient the fall in order to avoid possible dangers. Even people in the trade do not hesitate to retain the services of our arborists, given the danger, simply to take advantage of our insurance policies.
