Why Pay for Tree Trimming Services in Ottawa?
Rock’s Tree Service caters to the city of Ottawa. Tree trimming, pruning, and all around tree care keeps the city neat and tidy, as well as the trees healthy. With commercial-grade equipment and industry expertise, our team of tree experts provide Ottawa businesses and homes with seasonal and emergency services that save them time and money.
Equipment
Trees are majestic giants, and inexperienced people, such as Ottawa homeowners, aren’t always careful when working at great heights. Homeowners don’t have the same kind of equipment to efficiently get the job done. While we have cherry pickers and safety ropes, homeowners have ladders. One false move and they could seriously hurt themselves. When Rock’s team shows up, we’re fully equipped to provide you with the tree services you need.
Expertise
It’s vital to think about your trees’ health. A good trim and prune is a mix of science and art. Sure, home and building owners should know the reasons why they need tree or hedge trimming in the first place, but to ensure their trees’ health, Ottawa home and building owners also need to have:
- A knack for predicting the future growth of limbs
- A keen eye for property design
- Industry knowledge of how to maintain the health of your property’s trees
Most Ottawa home and building owners do not possess all three of the aforementioned aspects. And that’s okay. Every tree climbers at Rock’s Tree Service does have the knowledge. By having our tree experts in Ottawa do the work for you, you’re investing in your home and commercial property’s long-term care.
Save Time & Money
Paying for Rock’s Tree Services in Ottawa means we can tell you how long the job will take and make sure it gets done in a set amount of time. Home and building owners will spend time planning it out, and since they won’t have the right equipment or know-how, the job will take much longer than it should.
Hiring Rock’s Tree Services in Ottawa also means:
- You won’t need to unnecessarily remove or replace your trees because you caused irreparable harm to them.
- You won’t need to rent equipment or replace your own tools if they get damaged.
- You’ll save money that would have been put towards medical expenses if you had suffered from an injury by doing the work yourself.
From Ottawa tree pruning to hedge trimming to tree removal, Rock’s team is here to do the work for you the right way!
Maintain Tree Health
Hiring tree experts ensure they will evaluate your tree’s health and be well aware of the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB), a wood-boring beetle that was found in the city in 2008. It lives under the bark of almost all types of ash trees, so they won’t be detected by the average person.
The EAB kills ash trees by eating the bark from the inside out. It takes about two to three years for a tree infested with the EAB to die, but it can die within a year if it’s heavily infested.
At Rock’s Tree Service, our professional tree experts will work carefully and quickly, making sure the end result is a beautiful, healthier group of trees on your property.
Fast Response: Emergency Tree Services
Our professional arborists in Ottawa are quick to answer your call when your property has experienced storm damage. We will assess the situation and provide whatever you need, including tree removal. The safety of your home is one of our top priorities. Should you require tree removal in Ottawa, we will also provide stump grinding to make your property look beautiful again!
In some cases, steel cabling and bracing are required to add structural support to trees. There are three reasons for this:
- Prevention: The cables and braces will prevent a tree’s health from declining due to storm stress and the weight of snow, ice, and foliage.
- Restoration: The cables and braces provide support to trees that lost one of their main leaders due to a storm or tree removal and may not be as structurally strong in harsh weather.
- Mitigation: The cables and braces will reduce the chances of multi-stemmed trees becoming a hazard in busy areas.
