Tree removal,Montréal

Cutting down a tree is a gesture that Emondage Montreal does not take lightly. Who could argue with how valuable trees are!

Among other services, they contribute to slow down soil erosion, clean the air we breathe or act as wind blockers. In the summer, especially during hot weather, their foliage provides a welcome cooling effect.

Their presence can create intimacy and their beauty can help us relax. The birds that live or play in their branches delight us.

And a little "must" not to be neglected: trees increase the value of a property. This list could be completed indefinitely... Also, when the irremediable happens, that is to say that a tree must be cut down, it is very distressing. When is it necessary to cut down a tree? This is what we will see. 

Dead tree

Obviously, if a tree has reached the stage of death, that no more life circulates in it, that it is undoubtedly dried out, there is no other solution than cutting it down. In this case, you will understand that the different sections of this large plant become fragile, which could break at any moment and that the tree could even fall to the ground. This means that there is a risk of causing injuries to people, and who knows, maybe people could die. No one wants to go to such extremes. Moreover, when you hesitate to cut down a dead tree, you create an opportunity for fungi and insects to proliferate. You will agree that, given their activity, the fragility of the tree colossus will only increase and the risks of unfortunate incidents will increase. So, when you have to, you have to. Don't delay cutting down a tree that has completed its life. ​

Tree affected by disease

However, just because fungi or insects love your plant doesn't mean it's dead. This means that a pruning done at the right time could allow it to have more time to grow. Contact us, Emondage Montreal, at 514-900-1130 as soon as you suspect that pruning by experts would be appropriate. In all cases, we will advise you on your options. If a disease is advanced to the point of being untreatable, and cutting down is unavoidable, we will give you the straight goods. Even when it is difficult to take, such a decision would have as objective to avoid accidents that may be, such as causing damage to buildings or more or less seriously injuring people passing at the wrong place at the wrong time. In addition, cutting down a tree at the end of its life has the advantage of preventing the spread of an infestation to other plants in the vicinity. 

Damage to a tree after a storm

Bad weather has an impact on trees. Whether it is lightning, strong winds or snow or rainfall, each of these situations can more or less partially damage a plant. More precisely, to its branches and even to its trunk, which can split. In this case, the green colossus is weakened and another storm can only worsen its condition. You don't want to find it collapsed on a neighbor's roof or on your house. When a tree has been damaged by the weather, bracing may help; otherwise, a tree may have to be cut down. This is responsible from a safety standpoint because it avoids consequences that no one wants. 

Uprooted tree

Another problem that can occur after storms or strong winds for your trees is uprooting. If it is only partial, it will most likely complete itself, without warning. As mentioned above, even if you don't like this outcome, the tree must be cut down without delay, for the same safety reasons mentioned above. ​

Tree that hinders the growth of other trees

When you have several trees on your property, some of them may get too close to each other. Their branches may even become entangled. Then, the two plants could harm each other, eventually putting their growth at risk. You may have to decide which tree to keep and which to cut down. Sometimes the decision is obvious. If one of the specimens is close to reaching the longevity of its species, for example, or if one of them was a poor choice and is of little ornamental value. But what to do when determining which one to sacrifice is not at all obvious? Our arborists have seen it all, you know? They will help you examine all the criteria and options.
