Tree Planting & Removal in Elgin, Oxford & Norfolk Counties

Tree planting done right

The difference between a tree that establishes in a season and one that stalls for years is almost always what happens below grade. We site each tree for sun, drainage and mature size, dig the pit two to three times the width of the root ball, amend the native soil only where it actually needs it, and stake in a way that lets the trunk flex — the movement is what builds a strong root anchor.

For HOA and commercial work we plant in graded rows with consistent spacing, mulch to the drip line, and set up a season-one watering schedule. For homeowners we walk through the same finish work so you know exactly how to protect the investment through the first winter.

Tree & shrub removal

Dead, storm-damaged, or overgrown trees are a liability — to your roof, your fence, and the healthier plants around them. We remove trees and shrubs cleanly, protect the surrounding turf with our light-footprint Kubota equipment, and haul away every last bit of debris. Where a stump is in the way of future planting or a new bed, we can pull or grind it in the same visit.

Species we plant most often

• Sugar Maple, Red Maple and Red Rocket Maple (including 10 ft boulevard installs)
• Serviceberry, Redbud, Flowering Crabapple and other ornamentals
• White Oak, Linden and shade trees for larger lots
• Cedar, Yew and privacy hedge material
• Native pollinator shrubs for garden bed conversions
