Tree Pruning
Our certified arborists perform structural pruning to enhance tree health and stability. We remove deadwood, correct co-dominant stems, and improve airflow while maintaining natural growth patterns. Regular pruning every 2-3 years prevents hazards and extends tree lifespan.
Storm Damage Cleanup
We specialize in urgent storm response using cranes and rigging systems to safely remove damaged trees. Our team assesses structural integrity, mitigates risks, and restores properties after wind, lightning, or ice events with minimal disruption.
Tree Removal
Utilizing remote-controlled cranes and climbing gear, we remove hazardous trees in confined spaces. Our methodical approach includes root ball grinding and site restoration, prioritizing safety for both property and personnel.
Cabling & Bracing
We install dynamic support systems to reinforce weak branch unions and prevent splitting. This technique extends the life of mature trees while maintaining their natural aesthetics and ecological benefits.
Tree Planting
Our experts select appropriate species based on soil conditions and growth patterns. Services include proper siting, mulching, staking, and maintenance plans to ensure optimal establishment of new trees in residential and commercial landscapes.

Been telling every person I know that I got great service from this company. The team showed up on time, were incredibly professional and quick, and took really good care of a few small trees on my property. Eric was very informative and clearly passionate about his job, and I learned a ton just from the few minutes we interacted. Very highly recommend!

Eric and his team did a good job of removing a tall willow in my backyard. The tree had many branches reaching out to my neighbours' backyards. They managed to collect all of them and cleaned up the site very well. The crew were professional. Highly recommend their service.

I have used Brooklin tree care in the past and will not use any other company for my tree care needs.
Eric and his brother Mark and crew are both professional and personable. Not something you find these days. They were on time , quick and cleaned up so it was as if they were never here. Without a doubt, if you need any tree services, Brooklin tree care is the one and only to use.

I had contacted Eric from Brooklin Tree Care via email back in the summer of 2021. He was very responsive and came to my house to give me a quote of the work that our trees needed. He was very knowledgeable and reassuring of the work needed. Although we had to wait 10-12 weeks for the work to be done (tree service is a high demand in Oshawa) it was worth the wait. Professional work, they did all the work in a very safe and efficient manner. They cleaned up and were done in their estimated time they had mentioned. Also they didn't have to do some work they thought might have had to be done. So the

Eric and the Brooklin Tree Care team did a great job on my property, which included removing a dying white pine, providing tree care to save another and also did assorted pruning. They were prompt and professional, provided good advice, a fair quote, services as agreed (plus more) and cleaned up afterwards. They cut tree into firewood and also saved baby birds nesting in the tree. Job well done! I will absolutely use this company again in future.
