Dormant or Winter Tree Pruning – Why Winter is The Ideal Time to Prune Your Trees

Caring for your trees during the dormant – winter – season provides lasting benefits all year long

When we talk about the dormant season, we’re referring to the period of rest where trees enter a phase of inactivity and stop growing. During the weeks leading up and into early winter, they shed their leaves to economize and conserve resources – save them for their brilliant re-emergence in the spring!

So, as we make our way into November, with winter in the air and the dormant season for trees and shrubs just around the corner – it’s the perfect time to prune!

What is a Certified Arborist?

/

Once called "tree surgeons", Certified Arborists are those who specialize in individual tree care. Our knowledge in the art and science of tree care comes through experience and education and is tested and verified by the International Society of Arboriculture, the worldwide authority. To stay certified, we undertake ongoing training and adhere to a strict Code of Ethics. We're often called in to fix problems left by untrained tree service companies. It's better to do things right the first time- we're certified arborists and that's what we do.

How Much Does it Cost to Remove a Tree?

How Much Does it Cost to Remove a Tree?

Factors Considered When Determining the Cost of a Tree Removal:

Most factors, to some degree, are tied with how they affect the amount of time that is required to complete the tree removal process.

More dangerous jobs require more time to complete; Trees that are in a poor location will require more time to remove, and trees that are above homes or near other structures often involve rigging (lowering sections of wood with ropes, arborist blocks and pulleys) which will require more time to remove. Anything that takes more time, costs more money. Also equipment costs come into play. Often there no other options to safely remove a tree other than employing the use of a crane which will also add a significant cost to the project.

In this picture, crew members practice the skills needed to safely and efficiently access an injured coworker, assess their injuries, and bring them safely to the ground. Our company has been assessed through random audits by WCB compliance officers and we have always met and exceeded their expectations. 

TLC for a beautiful American Elm- Invermere BC

/

Proper tree pruning has many benefits to enhance trees in our landscapes. Green Leaf was commissioned to assess and provide pruning services on a beautiful American Elm tree on lake Windermere. Our skilled climbers removed dead wood and crossed and rubbing branches. We also raised the canopy above the cabin by making proper cuts to ensure the continued health of the tree. It was a pleasure to work on this tree!
