Chris and I both have heavy construction backgrounds. Working with excavators, loaders and dump-trucks requires attention to the weather that most people underestimate. I’ve worked in rain, hail, snow, blazing heat, and freezing winter – but it all depends on the job of the day. Spreading gravel on a shoulder of the road, on anContinue reading “Weather to call it [Brandon MB Tree Service]”

Stumps Stumps Stumps [Brandon MB Tree Service]
We have been kicking the tires and lighting the fires. Proverbially. Occasionally we play Top Gun music. Can’t help it.
What do arborists do in the winter? [Brandon MB Tree Service]
That sounds like the beginning of a joke I would have told as a child. I used to tell a lot of question jokes when I was a kid. We get trained up Chris and I attended the training day in Winnipeg, hosted by Vermeer. They are one of our suppliers for gear. It wasContinue reading “What do arborists do in the winter?

Interference [Brandon Mb Tree Service]
Over the summer, we’ve witnessed a strange phenomenon. Folks will call us up for a quote – perhaps some trimming, or a removal. And as we walk through the yard, listening to the homeowner describe the job, we’ll point out the elephant in the yard – trees interacting with either the roof/shingles, gutters or powerContinue reading “Interference [Brandon Mb Tree Service]”
A great day [Brandon Mb Tree Service]
If you follow us on Instagram – you may have already seen Chris lightsabering I mean, hedge trimming. All that comes to mind is Star Wars. People – take care of your cedars. The inside of cedars are the old/dead branches, meaning the actual life of the tree exists only in the tips. Regular pruningsContinue reading “A great day [Brandon Mb Tree Service]”
The Forty Acre Forest [Brandon Mb Tree Service]
During the heat wave, we thought it would be a good idea to head to out of town and save a little cabin from some too close trees. We also had the chance to do a very technical removal. One of the toughest things a chainsaw will ever encounter is metal in a tree. BecauseContinue reading “The Forty Acre Forest [Brandon Mb Tree Service]”
A day at the farm [Brandon Mb Tree Service]
Ahh what a beautiful day to spend in the country. One of my oldest and dearest friends has found herself a little piece of heaven and has us over for a little of that special help only a chain power saw can provide. A neat surprise was a healthy bloom of giant mushrooms – inContinue reading “A day at the farm [Brandon Mb Tree Service]”
My new lid [Brandon Tree Service]
I’m feeling pretty awesome in my new helmet. The visor flips down, it’s high quality – made in Italy hmm It always feels great to improve your kit. And with my new boots and NOW a new helmet – those trees better look out !!
A day at the lake [Brandon Tree Service]
We are ready !! After a mid summer conference/vacay that was supposed to be a break, instead of just the start of the year, we are in the thick of it. Tree jobs lined up for the foreseeable future. Chris doing the spiderman between two trees. My more dramatic suggestion was to chop and dropContinue reading “A day at the lake [Brandon Tree Service]”
Holly, the truck [Brandon Mb Tree Service]
Get it? Haul-ie? Knee slapper. We found her in a field near Beausejour – the weekend of Erin and Mark’s wedding. Boy, do we love her. Wait until spring 2014 – when we roll her out with an all new look !!
