We don't just show up with a chainsaw – we assess the full picture: the risk to your structure, the health of surrounding trees, and the safest, most cost-effective path forward.

Signs You Need a Tree Service in Burlington
Leaning or shifting trunk. A tree that has recently started leaning may have compromised roots and pose an immediate structural risk to your home or neighbouring properties.
Dead or dying branches. Dead limbs lose integrity fast and can fall without warning, even on calm days. Early pruning prevents costly property damage.
Fungal growth or visible decay. Mushrooms at the base, hollow sections, or widespread bark damage often indicate internal rot that can't be reversed.
Branches too close to your home or power lines. Overhanging branches near rooflines or growing into utility lines are a serious hazard, especially during Burlington's winter ice storms off the lake.
Storm damage. A tree may look intact after a storm while having suffered hidden damage to its root system or trunk. A post-storm assessment catches problems early.
Roots lifting pavement or affecting foundations. Surface roots can damage driveways, walkways, and home foundations, often without visible above-ground warning signs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Burlington?
Burlington's Private Tree Bylaw requires a permit to remove or injure a privately owned tree that measures 20 cm (about 8 inches) or more in diameter at 1.37 metres above the ground, if your property sits inside the Urban Planning Area Boundary. Heritage trees and at-risk species can require a permit regardless of size, and removing a protected tree without one can mean mandatory replacement planting or a $400-per-tree charge on top of any fine. Tree Doctors handles all permit applications on your behalf.
How much does tree removal cost in Burlington?
Cost depends on the size, location, and condition of the tree. We provide on-site assessments and detailed, all-inclusive quotes, what we quote is exactly what you pay.
Is Tree Doctors insured?
Yes. All services are covered by $5,000,000 in liability insurance. We're also WSIB certified. Certificates are available upon request.
How quickly can you respond to an emergency in Burlington?
Our emergency team operates 24/7. For fallen trees, storm damage, or hazard limbs, we aim to respond as quickly as possible.
Do you handle stump removal after the tree is cut down?
Yes. We offer stump grinding as a standalone service or as part of a full tree removal package. Stumps are ground below grade, leaving your yard clean and ready to use.
Can you remove a tree close to my house or fence?
Yes. Our arborists are trained and equipped to handle complex removals near structures, fences, and utilities using rigging systems and controlled cutting techniques.
