Tree removal

Tree felling, Saint-Jérôme

Emondage Saint-Jerome is well aware that cutting down a tree is a process that is applied when nothing else has worked. This is not surprising since these large plants enhance our lives in a fundamental way.

Our daily lives become more comfortable, serene and beautiful because of their presence. Whether it is to refresh us, to attract birds and their songs or to compose splendid landscaping, trees offer us their greenery in all generosity. It is impossible to list all their indisputable contributions to our human existence.

This explains why many of us do not want to cut them down. However, there are obviously times when this last resort becomes unavoidable. We will explore the most common ones together.

Felling of a sick tree by an employee of Emondage Saint-Jerome.

Dead tree

Before saying anything else, when a large plant dies, cutting down the tree is the only appropriate action. It is quite simple to understand why this is so. Think about it, since it has passed away, the tree will dry up little by little. Its branches will become brittle, its trunk will also become fragile due to the increasing number of cracks. Accidents can happen if heavy elements break and fall. In the event that passers-by were to find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time, this could lead to someone's death. Obviously, we don't run after such an outcome. But if we carelessly let time pass before acting, insects and fungi will be happy to infest this wooded relic. This will only increase the risks involved. So, yes, then cutting down a tree is necessary, and especially, urgently. It remains in this case a must.

Tree affected by disease ​

A pruning could be beneficial for a tree ravaged by a few ailments, such as a disease or an infestation of insects or fungi. However, in order to save it, the intervention must occur early enough. So contact us at Emondage Saint-Jerome by calling 579-996-8447. Our highly skilled pruners will be able to suggest the right tree care service for your situation by picking from our range.

In the event that the point of concern came late and the disease would be too advanced to get the plant out of trouble, the tree will probably unfortunately have to be cut down. When all alternatives have been considered, and this deplorable act has been performed, it must be understood that it has a preventive value. Indeed, the usual accidental consequences of a lack of attention to the situation of a tree are thus avoided. We are talking about everything that can happen when a large section of a plant falls on objects, buildings or people and all the complications, of varying severity, that this causes. But we are also talking about avoiding that the problem, if it is an infestation, does not spread in the surroundings. This would not be nothing.

Damage to a tree after a storm ​

Sometimes the weather can get a little messy. It storms, it throws lightning, it roars through the wind, it rushes down in heavy rain, heavy and sticky snow showers, even hail. These are all conditions that can cause cracks in the wood of trees from time to time. Sometimes the damage goes so far as to make a large plant so brittle that it cannot withstand another natural hazard. Regardless of the source of the problem, when a large plant has its stability compromised, the usual risks hang like a sword of Damocles, not only over the tree itself, but also over people living nearby or over nearby property and buildings.

Sometimes, bracing can save a large plant, giving it a long reprieve or even a normal life. But if not, cutting down a tree is necessary. In this way, the consequences that could have occurred are prevented.

Uprooted tree​

When strong winds hit, trees sometimes uproot themselves. Normally, they fall to the ground. But if they are still holding on, it is unlikely to be solid. And then, it is quite conceivable that the fall occurs suddenly, without warning. For safety reasons, it is necessary to intervene quickly, i.e. to cut down the miserable tree.

Tree not properly located

Let's say you want to install outdoor exercise modules on your property. We agree that any other project would do just as well as an example. However, a tree had the idea of being right in the place where it would fit best. Even if you are a new buyer, you will want to mark the place with your personal style. In this case, you will be caught between the resistance to cut down this tree that you nevertheless hold dear and the realization of your wishes.

Depending on the nature of the project and what the regulatory environment allows, your tree may have to be cut down in order for the idea you are entertaining to come to be realized. However, if you are not allowed to do this or if you want to save the tree as much as you want to carry out your plan, it is recommended that you rely on a specialist. By involving their advice in the decision, you may be surprised at the suggestions that come out. At Emondage Saint-Jerome, we are able to help you through this complicated choice. So give us a call at 579-996-8447 and we'll see what we can suggest. Who knows, a pruning or trimming from our range of tree care services might just do the trick!

When the branches of the trees interwine ​

We close this list with the case, perhaps less frequent, where branches of two trees are engaged in a tangled body, not knowing anymore to which specimen belongs each branch. It is impossible to leave the two vegetal victims in this situation when it is sufficiently advanced for the arboricultural development to be compromised. Very often, it is a question of designating one survivor and sacrificing the other. Such a choice is usually not obvious. Unless, of course, a tree is older, less ornamental or more unhealthy. This is quite rare. We have been encountering this type of situation for years. So, we see the multiple facets to consider and that can help in making a choice. Please contact us to benefit from our services.
