“We don’t just remove trees. We make decisions that your property and nature can both live with.”
My name is Frederic Leblanc, owner of SapBorn Tree Services.
Over the years, I’ve learned that no two trees, properties, or situations are exactly alike. Sometimes a tree needs corrective pruning to improve its structure. Sometimes it needs risk mitigation to reduce the likelihood of failure and protect people and property. And sadly, sometimes removal is simply the only suitable option remaining.
I believe in honest advice, practical solutions, and helping people make informed decisions about their trees. We take the time to assess each situation, explain the available options, and recommend solutions that prioritize safety, long-term tree health, and your property’s needs.
Whether it’s tree pruning, cabling and bracing, risk assessment, or simply seeking an honest recommendation, our goal remains the same: to provide professional tree care, outstanding customer service, and help you make confident decisions about your property.
Proper pruning is about more than appearance. It can improve structure, reduce risk, encourage healthy growth, and help prevent future problems. Every tree is assessed individually to determine the most suitable approach for its species, condition, and location.
While preserving trees is always our preference, removal is sometimes the safest and most suitable option. Whether a tree is dead, declining, hazardous, storm damaged, or interfering with future plans for the property, we remove it safely and efficiently while minimizing impact to the surrounding area.
Tree stumps can create obstacles, attract unwanted pests, and interfere with future landscaping projects. Stump grinding reduces the stump below grade, allowing the area to be restored and prepared for future use.
Not every tree with a structural defect needs to be removed. In many cases, cabling and bracing can help reduce the likelihood of failure and provide additional support to weak unions, co-dominant stems, or overextended limbs. Every tree is assessed individually to determine whether supplemental support is a suitable option.
When it comes to tree care, experience and honest advice matter. We take the time to assess each situation, explain the available options, and recommend solutions that prioritize safety, long-term tree health, and your property's needs. Whether we're pruning a mature tree, installing a cabling system, assessing potential hazards, or completing a complex removal, our focus remains the same: professionalism, clear communication, and treating your property with respect from start to finish.
Branches extending over roofs, structures, neighbouring properties, or surrounding trees can increase risk and create future problems. We assess the situation and recommend the most suitable approach to improve clearance while maintaining the health and structure of the tree
High winds, ice storms, and severe weather can leave trees weakened, damaged, or unsafe. We assess storm-damaged trees, identify potential hazards, and recommend the safest course of action to restore safety and reduce future risk.
Dead, declining, or diseased trees can become increasingly hazardous over time. We evaluate the tree’s condition, explain the available options, and help determine the most appropriate solution based on its health, location, and level of risk.
As trees mature, they can outgrow their available space and begin affecting sunlight, clearance, views, and nearby structures. Proper pruning can help manage growth, improve clearance, and maintain the long-term health and structure of the tree.
Leaning trees, cracks, cavities, hanging limbs, and weak branch unions are often signs that a tree requires further evaluation. We assess the level of risk and provide honest recommendations to help protect people, property, and surrounding trees.
Not every tree problem has an obvious solution. Whether you’re concerned about safety, tree health, storm damage, or simply want professional advice, we’re here to help. We’ll assess the situation, explain your options, and provide honest recommendations based on your tree’s condition and your property’s needs.
We take the time to assess your trees, understand your concerns, and identify anything that may affect their safety, health, or long-term condition.
We explain what we find, walk you through the available options, and recommend what makes the most sense for your trees and your property. And if your tree doesn't need anything, we'll tell you that too.
Every job is approached with safety, proper arboricultural practices, and respect for your property, from tree pruning and tree removals to cabling and more complex tree work.
