Expert Tree Removal in West Vancouver – Done Right!

The Call We Get All the Time:

"Hey, we’ve got a big tree in the backyard. How much to take it down?"

Simple question, right? But here’s the truth: In West Vancouver, tree removal is never just about price.

Take this recent job:

A mature Hemlock (over 75cm DBH) in a tight backyard. The homeowner wanted it gone safely. What they didn’t realize? This tree was protected under DWV bylaws

How We Solved It (So You Don’t Have To Stress):

1. The Arborist Report (The "Why" Behind the Permit)
We didn’t just fill out paperwork—we explained why the tree needed removal (safety, disease, etc.) and mapped its exact location for the District. No guesswork. This is a Requirement for Permit.

2. The Access Puzzle

The backyard was tight. Instead of charging extra for manual labor, we pruned a few cedars (with permission!) to fit our mini skid-steer. Saved the homeowner 30% in labor costs.

3. The Cleanup Promise

Most companies say "we’ll clean up." We define it:

• Brush? Gone.
• Stump? Flush to grade.
• Even the neighbor’s fence? Untouched.

The Lesson for West Vancouver Homeowners

"Cheap" tree removal is a myth. Hidden costs pop up when crews:

• Skip permits (and get shut down mid-job).
• Underestimate debris (and leave piles for you to handle).
• Damage property (and vanish).

We’re local. We follow the rules. And we show up.
