Vista Tree Management

A few photos from today's job with James and Jake leading.

This condo building's 3rd story balcony and narrow alleyway below presented some technical challenges, but careful planning and teamwork made for a smooth ex*****on.

We tamed this wild hedge! Before and after in Bedford Park today

James removing a hazardous dead tree in the rain last week. Crew got soaked but we got it down safely and everyone can enjoy their backyards again!

Summer is winding down but the work doesn’t stop!

Completing some vista pruning on a silver maple in Leslieville so these homeowners have a revitalized view from their 3rd floor window and balcony

Sid pruning an apple tree, Michael completing microcabling to support a climbing hydrangea vine, and some other fine pruning and clearance pruning across a trio of Leslieville yards on a recent job… and a neat, tidy yard afterwards with the perfect balance of sun and shade.

Michael taking down the last of the canopy on this Norway maple at the Beaches Public Library. Our full crew on site for a complex removal around busy sidewalks full of pedestrians, library patrons, and day camps, streetcar lines, hydro, and more. All in a day’s work!

Big day at the library!

Tree removal at one of Toronto’s busiest public spaces, making room for safer access and a healthier canopy down the line.

Summer colours along the Meadoway in the hydro corridor near our shop in Scarborough. Most plants here are small native plants with a limited number of trees, but some native tree species you’ll see include white spruce, honey locust and red oak. The Meadoways were developed to improve wildlife habitat and native plant coverage through urban areas of Toronto

James and crew rigging and removing a large Manitoba maple in a tight backyard space in Rosedale on a hot July day. When they’re done these two yards will look pristine again!

Cleared out some deadwood yesterday

This one had a fair bit tucked away up top. A solid summer prune keeps things safer and gives the tree a better shot at long-term health.

Summer’s a good time to check in on your trees… they do a lot of quiet work for us.
