Heritage Tree Care

For a number of years, Heritage Tree Care looked after a Manitoba Maple that dominated my back yard. They trimmed it back and kept it healthy. Last year however, the tree had gotten too big to support its weight. Despite excellent care, it developed a vertical crack in its trunk and a large branch also crashed. It had always been the wrong tree in the wrong place but now there was no way around the fact that it had to go.

Heritage Tree Care wrote and submitted the required arborist report/application for tree removal for the City of Toronto. Once we were granted permission, they removed the tree. But those four words hardly convey what was involved: a narrow downtown backyard with no laneway access; a tree that spanned two neighbours' yards; the need to access my yard across two other neighbours' properties; etc. There were seven team members in the yard! All of them polite, professional, and deeply reliable. I can't imagine trusting anyone else with this sort of of epic enterprise.
