Tree Care That Understands North Vancouver
North Vancouver isn’t like anywhere else in the Lower Mainland. Wedged between Burrard Inlet and the slopes of the North Shore Mountains, this community lives in and among its trees.
The steep terrain across Lynn Valley, Edgemont, and the Upper Seymour creates difficult access conditions and significant slope-failure risks when trees aren’t managed correctly. Our crews are trained and equipped specifically for hillside removals; work that requires specialist rigging and technical climbing expertise.
North Vancouver also sits in one of BC’s highest rainfall zones. The combination of saturated soils, coastal windstorms, and dense residential canopy means hazardous trees are a real and recurring issue. We know which species are most prone to wind-throw and root decay in your specific soil conditions, from Western Red Cedar, Douglas Fir, and Bigleaf Maple.
Navigating permits can be confusing; that’s where we come in. We offer concierge permit services, handling the full application or walking you through exactly what’s needed, depending on the job.
Whether you need an emergency removal after a windstorm or routine pruning to keep your cedars healthy, we bring the expertise and care that North Shore properties deserve.

Common Questions
Tree care in North Vancouver comes with specific permit requirements and bylaw considerations. Here are the questions we hear most often.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in North Vancouver?
It depends on location and land designation. Both the City of North Vancouver and the District of North Vancouver have Tree Protection Bylaws that require a permit before removing trees in specific circumstances. Let us clearly identify the need for a permit, and if necessary, we can handle the permit application process on your behalf. Permit and handling fees apply and will always be clearly outlined in your quote.
How much does tree removal cost in North Vancouver?
Tree removal costs vary depending on the tree’s size, species, location, and access. Rather than publish ranges that may not reflect your specific situation, we provide a no-obligation free estimate, with a written quote returned within 48 hours. No surprises, no hidden fees.
What's the difference between a certified arborist and a regular tree service?
Not all tree care is equal. An ISA-Certified Arborist has passed the ISA exam, covering tree biology, pruning standards, risk assessment, and safe work practices. In BC, only ISA-Certified Arborists can produce official arborist reports, and their work meets insurance standards that uncertified contractors do not. It’s the difference between guesswork and expertise.
Do you offer emergency tree service after storms?
Yes, 24/7. Fallen or hanging trees are a genuine safety hazard. Call us any time and a certified arborist will assess and secure the situation as quickly as possible. North Vancouver is no stranger to windstorms; emergency callouts are always our priority.
Is your company insured for work in North Vancouver?
Yes. We carry $5 million in commercial general liability insurance, and all workers are covered under WorkSafeBC. We provide certificates of insurance before any job begins, because if an uninsured contractor is injured on your property, you may be held liable under BC law.
