Arborist Halifax was an absolute pleasure to work with! He was prompt in returning my initial questions and came to quote the job within a few days.

We spoke about the property and trees I wanted pruning. He listened and offered excellent advice and recommendations for maintaining our beautiful willows and managing other less desirable trees. He was clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about the business.

Arborist Halifax was quick to get back to me with a competitive quote and was back to complete the job a few days later.

Overall, I’m very happy with the work and would not hesitate to recommend Arborist Halifax to anyone in the HRM.

FAQ

Aborist can do a risk assessment of your tree and spot any warning signals such as uprooting, root rot, decay at the base of a tree, deep cracks in the bark and more. A hazard tree could cost you thousands of dollars in property damage or, worse, injury to homeowners or pedestrians. Therefore getting a tree assessment is a wise choice. Arborists can help determine the level of risk and give you an educated opinion. With that being said, trees can be unpredictable, so an arborist can never provide 100% certainty about how and when a tree will fail. Ultimately it’s up to the homeowner to make the final decision.

The cost of tree removal varies depending on the scope of work required. Removing a tree in Nova Scotia can cost, on average, between $200 to $2000. Many factors influence the cost, such as the complexity of the tree removal and how dangerous it is, the access, the obstacles to overcome, the size of the tree, or which equipment is required to remove the tree safely.

Arborists charge high for their tree services because of the job complexity, unpredictability, and risky nature of tree removals. The equipment and safety gear, overhead costs and insurance premiums in the tree service industry are also high. All these factors influence pricing.

You can save money on tree removal in multiple ways:

  • Let us get the tree down to the ground safely, and you can do your own cleanup
  • Keep the firewood to save on additional labor cost
  • Get multiple quotes from various tree service companies (although don’t compromise the quality of tree service and safety of your property for a lower price)
  • Ask for bulk discounts

Tree removals can be done all year round in most weather conditions, with the exception of strong winds. The advantage of removing a tree in winter is less foliage. When a tree doesn’t have leaves, it’s easier to identify any flaws, wounds or weak structure that might have otherwise been masked by tree foliage. Frozen ground is not an issue when it comes to tree removals. In fact, it’s less easily disturbed.
