Advanced tree care beyond Eastern Ontario
Arboris offers specialized tree care services for communities, institutions, and private clients who require advanced expertise beyond standard tree work. While most of our daily service happens in Eastern Ontario, we also support projects outside our regular areas when the work requires certified skills, technical equipment, or municipal-level coordination.
Dutch Elm Disease management in Montréal and surrounding regions is one example of the type of specialized service we can provide when requested.
Additional specialized services
Arboris provides several specialized tree care services for municipalities, institutions, and private clients who need advanced support outside our regular service areas. These services are offered on a project-by-project basis depending on timing, equipment requirements, and regional needs.
Dutch Elm Disease (DED) management
Our team performs DED inspections, trunk-injection treatments, sanitation pruning, and monitoring programs to help protect valuable elm trees. We have supported DED projects in regions such as Montréal and surrounding areas when specialized help was required. Availability varies from year to year based on local demand and timing.
Parks & CITES Tree Inventories
We conduct complete tree inventories for parks, campuses, and public or private properties. Reports include species identification, condition ratings, hazard levels, and maintenance planning to support long-term management.
Tree risk assessments
Certified arborists perform structural evaluations and hazard assessments for mature or high-value trees. Reports are clear, practical, and designed to help clients reduce risk and plan safe maintenance programs.
Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) treatments
We offer trunk-injection treatments that help protect ash trees against Emerald Ash Borer. Treatment schedules and follow-up inspections are tailored to local pest activity and tree condition.
Large-scale plant health diagnostics
Arboris analyzes soil health, pest pressure, disease symptoms, and environmental stress across multi-tree properties such as golf courses, parks, and residential developments.
High-risk or technical tree removals
For trees requiring cranes, rigging systems, or confined-space techniques, we evaluate site conditions and determine the safest possible removal method. Extended coverage is available for projects requiring advanced equipment or certified expertise.
Advanced Tree Health Services in Expanded Regions
Specialized tree treatments backed by certified arborists
Whether you need disease management, municipal inspections, or specialized treatments like Dutch Elm Disease control, Arboris provides safe and sustainable tree care across the Ottawa region and beyond. Our team supports extended-range projects outside our usual Ontario service areas, including select Québec regions.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Arboris can travel outside our normal service regions when a project requires skills or equipment that are not commonly available locally. These projects often involve Dutch Elm Disease treatments, risk assessments, or technical removals that need certified arborists.
Each request is reviewed individually so we can understand travel time, equipment needs, and safety details. If the project is a good fit, we provide a clear plan and schedule before any work begins.
Yes. Montréal’s urban forestry by-laws (By-law 70) require property owners to obtain a permit before removing or performing major work on any mature tree, including elms affected by Dutch Elm Disease (DED).
Permits are issued through the city’s borough offices and must include an arborist’s assessment confirming the tree’s condition.
Arboris manages this entire process on behalf of clients — from the diagnostic inspection and official report to permit submission and coordination with municipal inspectors. This ensures every treatment or removal is performed legally and safely, without administrative stress for the property owner.
Yes, when the treatment window and travel schedule allow it. Emerald Ash Borer injections must be done during specific times of the year, so we first confirm that the timing is right for the region requesting help. Once the timing and location are reviewed, we can plan treatment programs for private clients, institutions, or municipalities. Follow-up inspections and repeat treatments may be suggested depending on the level of EAB activity in the area.
Arboris offers several specialized services designed for situations where regular tree care is not enough. These include Dutch Elm Disease treatments, tree inventories for parks and institutions, tree risk assessments, Emerald Ash Borer injections, and large-scale plant health diagnostics. We also handle technical removals that require cranes, rigging, or confined-space work. These services are often used by municipalities, school boards, large properties, or private clients who need advanced support.
Yes. Although Arboris works closely with municipal forestry departments, private homeowners, condo associations, and institutions can also contact us directly to request DED inspection and preventive treatment.
Our bilingual team (EN/FR) will perform an on-site assessment, identify any visible symptoms (such as wilting leaves, bark discoloration, or beetle galleries), and recommend the best action plan.
Most treatments are done between late May and early August, when the tree’s vascular system can best absorb fungicide injections.
Clients receive a written report and follow-up schedule for the next treatment cycle, ensuring long-term protection.
No. We work with municipalities, institutions, commercial clients, and private landowners.
Whether it’s a single high-value elm or a multi-site management plan, we evaluate each request individually to determine feasibility.
