Professional Tree Removal Services
Safe, controlled removal of hazardous, dead, and unwanted trees for residential, commercial, and rural properties.
We specialize in removing dangerous trees, beetle-affected pine, storm-damaged trees, and vegetation that creates wildfire or property risk. Our crews use controlled, professional techniques to remove trees safely — even in tight or high-risk locations.
Do You Have Any of These Problems?
Most calls come in when something no longer feels safe. If any of the situations below match your property, tree removal is recommended.
- 🌲 Dead or Dying Trees Dead or dying trees, often affected by Mountain Pine Beetle, become brittle and unpredictable. Once needles thin or disappear, failure during wind or snow becomes much more likely.
- 🌬️ Storm-Damaged or Leaning Trees Trees that start leaning or show damage after Alberta windstorms often continue to weaken over time. Cracked trunks or shifting root plates can fail long after the storm has passed. These situations should be assessed before conditions worsen.
- 🏠 Trees Too Close to Homes or Structures Many Yellowhead County properties have mature trees growing close to homes, garages, and fences. When there is no clear space for a tree to fall, removal requires controlled or sectional methods. Proper planning helps prevent property damage in tight yards.
- ⚡ Trees Near Power Lines Trees growing near power lines pose a higher safety risk, especially during wind or snow events. Branch contact or limited clearance can lead to service disruptions or damage. These removals require careful planning and controlled techniques.
- 🔥 FireSmart™ & Wildfire Risk Beetle-killed and stressed trees near homes increase wildfire risk, especially on forest-edge properties. Removing these trees is often the first step in FireSmart™ mitigation. It helps reduce fuel loads and improve defensible space.

Tree Removal FAQ
How much does tree removal usually cost?
Tree removal costs depend on the size of the tree, how close it is to buildings or power lines, and how difficult access is. Smaller trees in open areas cost much less than large, hazardous trees near structures. After reviewing a few details or photos, we can usually give a clear price range.
Do you need a permit to remove a tree?
In most residential and rural areas, a permit is not required to remove a tree on private property. However, some towns and developments have tree protection rules. We can let you know if any special approval is needed for your property.
Can you remove trees close to houses or power lines?
Yes. Many of the jobs we handle involve tight spaces, nearby structures, or overhead lines. These removals are done using controlled and sectional techniques to safely lower the tree without causing damage.
What happens to the wood and debris?
All branches and debris are removed as part of the job. Logs can be hauled away or left on site if you want to keep firewood. The site is cleaned up so your yard is safe and usable again.
How long does a typical tree removal take?
Most residential tree removals are completed in a few hours. Larger or more complex jobs may take longer, especially if heavy equipment or sectional removal is required.
Do you offer emergency tree removal?
Yes. We provide emergency removal for storm-damaged, fallen, or dangerously leaning trees that pose an immediate risk to people or property.
Can you remove multiple trees or clear a property?
Yes. We handle everything from single hazardous trees to full lot clearing and FireSmart vegetation reduction.
Do you work outside of locations mentioned above?
Yes, we may work even outside of the locations mentioned above, but it's mostly if the job is really big and it's worthy. For instance, if you're somewhere in Jasper and have a few tree removal requests, we could come thus far as well. It all depends on the situation.
