Trade Winds Tree Care

A wee bit of storm damage from last night.

Arborist apprentice and recent Humber Graduate, Will prepares the stem for safe removal.

Urban Forestry in the City of Toronto has a variety of challenges, top of which is the abundance of large dead trees in tight spaces.

Will is expertly navigating the removal of the branch to ensure his safety; the crew’s safety; and the preservation of the property.

The view from the office today.

In other words, Toronto still stands despite the Leaf’s loss.

Have a great day!

What’s under your tie-in point today?

Okay, getting a little personal here, right? 😉

More storm damage clean up. Large willow tree, already in a state of decline, was hit hard by the wind and the ice. As a result, so was the shed in the neighbour’s yard.

The area is tight so no bucket access.

The cavity pictured below is under my tie-in point today.

Stay safe and may your work boots be slip resistant.

Anyone play operation as a kid?

This is how we do it arborist-style.

Very damaged tree. Extremely tight space between houses. Backyard filled with tender bulbs that are shooting up.

This is why it is important to hire a competent, knowledgeable arborist.

You want to preserve your property while maintaining the safety of the workers and bystanders.

The climb is finished now. Onto processing the wood and cleaning the yard.

Stay safe and May your ropes be ice-free!
