Frequently asked questions

Your questions about our services in Calgary

How much does tree removal cost in Calgary?
Tree removal pricing depends on the tree's size, species, location, and accessibility. We provide free estimates after inspecting your property, so you'll know the exact cost before work begins. Call us at (587) 333-6436 to schedule your assessment.
Do you offer emergency tree removal 24/7 in Calgary?
Yes, Chinook Tree Trimming provides 24/7 emergency tree removal throughout Calgary. If a storm, ice load, or other damage has created a hazard on your property, contact us immediately at (587) 333-6436 and our crews will respond as quickly as possible.
What areas of Calgary do you service?
We serve in Calgary and the surrounding municipalities. Whether your property is in the city centre, a ravine lot, or the outskirts, our fully insured team is equipped to handle your tree care needs. Call (587) 333-6436 to confirm service availability for your address.
Are you insured and bonded?
Yes, Chinook Tree Trimming is fully insured. Our ISA Certified Arborists carry comprehensive liability coverage to protect your property during all work. We document damage for your insurer if needed, and we're happy to provide proof of insurance before starting any job.
What is the best time of year to trim trees in Calgary?
Late winter and early spring (February through April) are ideal for most tree pruning in Calgary, as trees are dormant and recovery is strong. However, dead or hazardous branches can be removed any time, and we can assess your trees year-round to plan preventive maintenance before ice storms or heavy snow loads arrive.
Can you work near hydro lines on my property?
Yes, we safely trim and remove trees near power lines, respecting the required approach distances from your private service entrance and the wires running to your house. Our ISA Certified Arborists know Alberta's safety regulations and will ensure no contact with live conductors.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Calgary?
The City of Calgary may require a permit for private tree removal depending on the tree's size and location. Our team can help you understand the requirements and provide an arborist report to support your permit application if needed.
What services do you offer beyond tree removal?
In addition to tree removal, we provide tree trimming, pruning, crown reduction, stump grinding and full stump removal, hedge trimming, tree cabling and bracing, elm disease assessment, wood chipping, and arborist risk assessments. We also handle storm and snow load cleanup and can diagnose tree diseases. Contact us at (587) 333-6436 for a free estimate on any service.
