Our Tree Services
From your first call to a clean, completed site, here is what working with Croft Tree Experts looks like across every service we provide in Smiths Falls.Tree Removal
Your tree removal in Smiths Falls starts with a free on-site assessment, followed by a clear quote. Our certified arborists plan the removal sequence around site access, proximity to structures, and root-zone conditions, and leave the site clean upon completion.
Tree Pruning
Tree pruning begins with an honest evaluation of what your tree actually needs. Deadwood removal, branch structure correction, and failure risk reduction are completed to ISA standards with your tree’s long-term health as the priority.
Stump Grinding
After removal, stump grinding takes the remaining stump to below grade, restoring usable space for replanting or lawn restoration. Stump removal in Smiths Falls is available as a standalone service or as part of a removal package.
Hedge Trimming
Hedge trimming is scheduled to match your species’ growth cycle, keeping cedar hedges, evergreen plantings, and ornamental shrubs dense, healthy, and well-maintained throughout the season.
Tree Mulching
Mulching is applied correctly from the start: wide-spread, thin near the trunk, retaining soil moisture, regulating temperature, and protecting root zones for lasting benefit.
Tree Planting
Tree planting starts with choosing the right species for your soil and site, and planting them at the correct depth. Care guidance is provided so your tree establishes well from day one.
Tree Cabling
Tree cabling is recommended only after an individual arborist assessment confirms it is the right solution. Flexible steel cables are installed to safely and effectively stabilize structurally compromised trees in Smiths Falls.
Emergency Tree Services
Emergency services are available 24/7. When a storm creates a hazard on your property, call us directly. We respond promptly, safely clear the hazard, and follow up with full removal or stabilization as required.

FAQs
Tree care in Smiths Falls involves regulatory, technical, and seasonal considerations. Here are the answers that help property owners move forward with confidence.Accordions
Yes. Tree removal on properties within or adjacent to the Rideau Canal National Historic Site may require Parks Canada review and approval, in addition to municipal permit requirements. Our arborists identify which regulatory bodies apply to your specific Smiths Falls property before any removal is scheduled.
Native species that reflect the historic Eastern Ontario landscape are the most appropriate choice: sugar maple, white oak, bur oak, and eastern white pine. Our arborists recommend species based on your site conditions and tree-planting goals.
Prolonged high water levels in spring saturate root zones, while summer draw-downs create rapid drying on canal-adjacent properties. Trees not adapted to these fluctuations can experience root stress and structural decline over time. A certified arborist inspection identifies vulnerable trees before decline progresses.
Yes. Our certified arborists provide written assessment reports documenting storm damage, tree condition, and recommended actions, documentation frequently required by insurers before processing claims for tree-caused property damage.
Tree trimming addresses aesthetics and clearance, size reduction, and visual shaping. Tree pruning targets health and structure, deadwood removal, branch-angle correction, and storm-resistance improvement. Most properties benefit from both at different intervals. Our certified arborists assess your trees and recommend the right approach for each.
