- Certified arborists.Trained to read a tree before the first cut, so the ones you keep stay healthy and the ones that go come down without surprises.
- The right equipment.Crane and bucket-truck work for trees over houses and wires, a chipper for the brush and a grinder for the stump.
- Clean when we leave.Brush chipped, wood stacked or hauled, lawn raked. The reviews mention the cleanup more than anything else.
- Winter work.Dormant-season pruning and frozen-ground removals, when the trees and your lawn are both better off for it.
Some of our recent work.
Winter is pruning season.
Once the leaves are down you can see the whole structure of a tree, cuts heal cleanly when growth starts in spring, and there is no canopy to drag through the garden. Frozen ground also means our equipment leaves the lawn alone. If you have been putting off that big maple or the pines by the driveway, this is the time to book it.
What customers say.
Kevin and his team are amazing. Polite, experienced, professional and very efficient. On arrival they quickly set up, executed the required work and cleaned up.
Ian Parker
If you're looking to have some trees removed, I highly recommend calling Kevin at Patton Tree Service. The service was awesome, Kevin is very friendly and professional. They took out 15 pine trees and all the stumps, what a great job they did and the cleanup was amazing!
Pauline Lemenchick
Kevin and his team were great. Showed up on time, cut down the trees quickly and efficiently. Cut the bigger pieces into smaller pieces for myself. They cleaned up the brush and were done. Very reasonable and competitive pricing. I would have them back in the future.
Barrett Thomson
Right from the start, Kevin and his team blew me away with their professionalism. The team shows up on time, are super friendly, and really know their stuff about tree care.

Why hire a certified arborist?
Trained and equipped arborists are the only ones who should be handling your trees. A certified arborist protects the health of the trees you keep, takes down the ones you don't safely, and knows how to keep your house, fence and lawn out of the way of it all.
How much does tree work cost?
It depends on the size of the tree and what is around it. Structures, wires, fences and other trees are the usual factors. We look at the job in person and give you a firm price before anything is cut.
Do you clean up afterwards?
Yes. Brush is chipped, wood is cut to length if you want to keep it or hauled away if you don't, and the lawn is raked before we leave.
When is the best time to prune?
Most trees are best pruned while they are dormant, from late fall through winter. The structure is easy to see, the cuts heal cleanly in spring, and there is no leaf mess. Hazard limbs come off any time of year.
Do you work in winter?
Yes. Winter is pruning season and frozen ground means less lawn damage from equipment, so removals near lawns and gardens often go better in the cold months.
What area do you cover?
Arnprior, Kanata, West Ottawa, Carp, Almonte, Carleton Place and up the Valley through Renfrew, Pembroke, Petawawa and the rest of Renfrew County. If you are nearby and not listed, call, we probably come to you.
