Certified Arborists You Can Trust

A tree planted in the wrong spot – or planted wrong – can cause problems for decades. Poor species selection, improper depth, and inadequate soil preparation are the most common reasons newly planted trees fail.

At Tree Doctors, our ISA-certified arborists assess your property before recommending a single species. We look at soil composition, drainage, sun exposure, proximity to structures, and your long-term goals – then select and plant trees that are built to thrive in your specific conditions.

Every job is backed by $5,000,000 in liability insurance and performed by working-at-heights certified professionals. When you hire Tree Doctors, you're not just planting a tree – you're making a decision that will shape your property for generations.

Signs It's Time to Plant a New Tree

Adding a tree to your property is one of the highest-return investments you can make – in curb appeal, shade, and long-term property value. Here are the most common reasons our clients decide it's time to plant.

A tree was recently removed. When a mature tree comes down, it leaves a gap – in shade, privacy, and the overall feel of your yard. Replanting restores what was lost and starts building value again.

Your yard lacks shade or privacy. The right tree in the right spot can dramatically reduce summer heat, block sightlines from the street, and create a more comfortable outdoor space within a few growing seasons.

You want to increase property value or start a project. Mature trees are one of the most cited factors in residential property appraisals. Trees also anchor a landscape. If you're redesigning your yard, establishing trees early sets the structure everything else grows around.

Your existing trees are aging. Older trees eventually decline. Planting younger specimens alongside aging trees ensures continuity – so you're never left without mature canopy.

Highly recommend

We had a very large emerald cedar removed from our front yard by The Tree Doctors and had a great experience from start to finish. The tree was starting to cause damage, and their team made the whole process easy and stress-free. They arrived right within the scheduled window, were incredibly fast and efficient, and worked safely and professionally the entire time. Olek, Tavas, and Yandir were all…

Definitely recommend!

My Japanese Maple split at the top over the winter. Eric was able to wrap it, prune it, and advise me on how to make sure it doesn’t get worse.

I strongly recommend Tree Doctors

I went to several companies to get a quote, and not only were they the best price, but the person that came to take the estimate, Glenn, was wonderful and made it clear that he wanted to do the work for us. The experience with the team with JJ and two other great guys was amazing, as they were really friendly, very fast at getting the job done, but took a lot of care in making sure it went well.…

Price. Performance. Professionalism

We had a very large dead, elm tree in our backyard that needed to be removed, contacted tree doctors and there after met John Karajovanov. We had one other quote before meeting him, and after meeting him and seeing how thorough he was, we decided to hire Tree Doctors. Price: we didn’t choose this firm because of the price, but as it turns out, it was 20% cheaper than the other quote. Performance:…

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best time of year to plant a tree in Toronto?

Early spring and fall are the ideal planting windows in the GTA. Cooler temperatures and more reliable rainfall give roots time to establish before the stress of summer heat or winter cold. That said, with proper watering, trees can be successfully planted throughout the growing season.

How do I choose the right tree for my property?

Species selection depends on several factors – soil type, drainage, sun exposure, available space, and your goals (shade, privacy, ornamental value). Our arborists assess your site and recommend species that are proven performers in GTA conditions.

Do I need a permit to plant a tree in Toronto?

Planting generally doesn't require a permit. However, if you're planting near the road allowance, utility lines, or within a regulated area, there may be restrictions. Our team can advise you on any local requirements before work begins.

How much does professional tree planting cost?

Cost depends on the species, size of the tree, site conditions, and the number of trees being planted. We provide free on-site assessments and detailed quotes – and we'll beat any written quote from a licensed GTA competitor.

How do I care for a newly planted tree?

The first two years are critical. Consistent watering, proper mulching, and avoiding damage to the root zone are the most important factors. We provide full aftercare guidance after every planting – and we're always available if questions come up.

Can you plant trees on commercial properties?

Yes. We work with property managers, developers, and commercial clients across the GTA on everything from single specimen plantings to full landscape programs. We're experienced with municipal requirements and can coordinate with other trades on larger projects.
