Tree Removal in Kitchener: Tips to Help Trees Stay Healthy

Trees can transform a property, offering shade, decoration, and privacy. Planting trees that are native to the area can also improve soil condition and encourage wildlife species, such as birds and butterflies, into your garden. Like every plant, trees need maintenance, but how much will depend on the species. For example, the Japanese lilac tree produces a beautifully fragranced flower in early spring and requires very little pruning. The native Black Ash, however, needs pruning on a regular basis.

Why it's Important to Remove a Stump From Your Waterloo Yard

8/29/2018

A garden dotted with large native trees can be a delight in all seasons, offering shade in the warm summer months, colourful foliage during the Fall, and a haven for natural woodland species throughout the year. The best thing about trees that belong in the natural forest area around Waterloo is that they usually require minimal maintenance. Unlike annuals, indigenous trees tend to look after themselves, unless there are extreme or unseasonal weather conditions.

Having large trees in your yard isn’t without its problems, however, and should the tree die or become diseased, having it removed can be a complex and dangerous process. Despite the scenes you may have watching on television or in a movie, tree cutting just isn’t as easy as it looks. ​

How to Know When a Tree Should be Removed?Picture
While a difficult decision for many, tree removal from your backyard or property is always the better option compared to the alternative. Try thinking of a tree that needs removal as you would a stock that’s declining: the last thing you want is to invest money in a declining tree. Looking at the big picture is what you need to do in such a situation, meaning you should think a few years in advance and determine what such a time period would mean for your property with a dying tree on it. Removing a tree should be done the moment you notice signs of dying or decay

    Steve Martin
    President- Arborist

     I have a profound interest in trees and their natural beauty. I grew up on a hobby farm ten minutes north of Waterloo and spent many winters in the bush collecting firewood to heat our family home. It was definitely work, so I wasn't always eager as a young boy to help my Father and big Brother, but I learned to love the process. Without knowing it, it had started my path towards becoming an Arborist and seeing trees in a new light. I've come a long way since those days in the bush, but am always learning more through books, conferences and being in the field learning from the trees themselves.  Follow along as I periodically blog about insights into our world and simple tips to keep your trees in tip top shape for generations to enjoy!
