Will my yard be messy after you’re done?

Nope! We clean everything up so your yard looks neat before we leave.

How often should I water my trees in the Okanagan summer?

Deep watering once a week is usually enough — more often during heat waves.

Why should I choose professional stump grinding?

Stump grinding should be done by a professional, safely and quickly. We have the equipment and want to work with you if you need to enhance the look of your property, remove a potential tripping hazard, or avert a pest infestation that might spread to healthy trees or your home. If you are a farmer, call Fir Yew for stump removal to add more arable land for crop use.

Do you do tree pruning in the winter?

Absolutely! We prune year-round, and winter is often the easiest time for many trees.

How long does tree pruning usually take?

Most jobs take just a few hours, but bigger trees may need a full day.
