Overview

Taken down safely, in sections where it counts

Removal is technical work. A tree beside a house, a fence or a garage is not felled in one piece. It is taken down in controlled sections, with each piece cut and lowered to protect what is underneath. Trees in open space can be felled more simply, and the right method is chosen on site.

Before anything is cut you get an honest opinion on whether the tree needs to go at all. Plenty of trees people assume are removals can be kept with pruning or a crown reduction. If removal is the right call, the estimate lays out the work and the cleanup, and it is free with no obligation.

Silver Fern Tree's services provided by owner Marek was absolutely exceptional. A large 40+ year old evergreen with a steep lean (technically challenging!) and a diseased poplar were removed and cleaned up from my SW Calgary property.

Marek and his team did an amazing job removing a large pine tree from the backyard of my rental property and an apple tree from my own backyard. Marek was very friendly, professional, and efficient throughout the process. Definitely recommend!

Questions

Common questions about tree removal

How do you remove a tree close to my house?

A tree close to a house, fence or garage is taken down in sections rather than felled whole. Each piece is cut and lowered in a controlled way to protect what is below it. It takes longer than felling a tree in open space, but it is how a large tree comes out of a tight backyard safely.

How much does tree removal cost?

It depends on the size and condition of the tree, how close it is to buildings or lines, access to the yard, and how much cleanup is involved. A tree that has to come down in sections over a roof takes longer than one standing in open space. Estimates are free, so the easiest way to know is to ask.

Can you remove shrubs and overgrown bushes too?

Yes. Shrub and overgrown bush removal is part of the service, whether it is a single shrub that has outgrown its spot or a whole row that has taken over a fence line. What will happen with the roots and any regrowth is covered at the estimate, so you know what to expect afterwards.
