Frequently asked questions

Do I need a permit for tree removal in Ambleside?

Yes, West Vancouver’s Tree Protection Bylaw requires a permit for cutting or removing significant or protected trees. Attempting removal without a permit can lead to fines and delays in your project. Our arborists help secure permits quickly and ensure full compliance.

 

Tree cutting costs vary based on size, height, location, and site accessibility. Simple cuts may be affordable, while hazardous trees near power lines require specialized equipment. We always provide a free on-site assessment and transparent quotes.

 

Our stump grinding process removes the stump below ground level, making the area safe and usable. We also handle debris cleanup and ensure the ground is ready for new planting or landscaping. This service prevents pests, accidents, and regrowth issues.

 

Hedges generally need trimming one to three times per year depending on the species and growth rate. Regular trimming keeps them healthy, dense, and attractive. It also ensures your property maintains curb appeal and privacy.

 

An arborist report is a certified assessment of tree health, risk, and preservation options. It is often required for permits, construction projects, insurance claims, or legal cases. Our reports meet all West Vancouver municipal requirements.

 

Yes, cutting and thinning branches can restore views of the ocean, mountains, or gardens. Strategic cutting allows more sunlight to reach outdoor areas. Our arborists ensure cuts are precise and encourage healthy regrowth.
