A Day in the Life of Coquitlam Tree Removal: More Than Just Cutting Down Trees
The call came in from a homeowner in Coquitlam's Heritage Mountain area. Their backyard had become a forest of concerns - a leaning cedar threatening the fence, an ivy-strangled hemlock, and towering firs growing uncomfortably close to the property line. This wasn't just a tree removal job; it was an exercise in precision arboriculture.
The Cast of Characters
The Leaning Cedar
Our team arrived to find a western red cedar doing its best Tower of Pisa impression. The 4.5-hour operation required careful rigging to drop sections away from the fence (which the homeowner had wisely removed beforehand). We left the stem wood neatly spaced in the green space - nature's way of recycling nutrients back into the Coquitlam soil.The Ivy-Choked Hemlock
This 4-hour rescue mission involved liberating a hemlock from English ivy's deadly embrace. Unlike the other trees where we left wood on site, this one required complete removal - ivy and all - to prevent reinfestation.The Douglas Fir & Hemlock Duo
These two required a delicate dance of climbing and controlled drops. The fir's 5-hour removal was the day's most complex operation, while the hemlock's 3.5-hour takedown showed how no two Coquitlam tree removals are alike.
