On the rural acreages and tree-lined driveways of Tache (R5M 0A1), mature elms arch over older properties, green ash trees line the boulevards, and self-seeded Manitoba maples crowd the back lanes. Red River Tree Trimming has served this southeast municipality and the broader Winnipeg area since 2014, removing hazards, trimming overgrown limbs, and grinding stumps on the heavy clay lots and river properties that define the landscape here.

Whether a branch laden with wet spring snow threatens your garage, an elm shows signs of Dutch elm disease, or a dead ash has turned brittle after the emerald ash borer, our ISA Certified Arborists know the trees, the soil, and the seasonal urgencies of Tache. We respond 24/7 to storm damage and deliver estimates at no charge.

Our expertise in Tache (R5M 0A1)

Tache's landscape is shaped by its trees and its climate. American elms, some decades old, still dominate the streetscapes and private driveways, though many now face pressure from Dutch elm disease. Green ash trees, planted as boulevard specimens, are increasingly under threat from the emerald ash borer. Manitoba maples self-seed in every back lane. Bur oak, basswood, and cottonwood anchor river lots. Planted too close to foundations, Colorado and white spruce often require careful reduction work. The heavy clay soil and flat terrain mean that root systems are shallow, making trees vulnerable to the heavy wet snow that bends and snaps branches in late spring and early fall, and to summer windstorms that can split limbs without warning.

Since 2014, we have managed tree emergencies on acreages, around detached garages on paved back lanes, and along the long treed driveways that characterise this municipality. We understand the provincial elm pruning ban that runs from April 1 to July 31, and we follow the elm wood disposal rules that apply throughout Manitoba. We respect the approach distances required near private electrical service entrances and defer to Manitoba Hydro whenever a tree touches the public distribution network.

Our services in Tache

How we work on your Tache property

First, we visit your site at no charge to assess the tree, the hazard, and the access. On acreages with long driveways and properties surrounded by bush, we evaluate how equipment will reach the work zone and how debris will be cleared. We check local rules for your address, particularly if elm or ash are involved.

Next, our ISA Certified Arborists perform the work using proper climbing techniques, rigging, and safety protocols. We carry full insurance and our crews are covered by WCB Manitoba. Whether we are removing a dead ash, pruning an elm outside the seasonal ban, grinding a stump into the heavy clay, or chipping wood on site, we work systematically and efficiently.

Finally, we leave your property clean. Debris is chipped, hauled, or disposed of according to species and season. If elm wood is involved, it is handled under the provincial disposal rules. Your driveway, back lane, and yard are returned to their original condition.

Our pricing reflects the complexity of work on Tache's properties. Hedge trimming starts from $80. Low branch removal, common on driveways where limbs hang over vehicles or garages, begins at $95. Stump grinding, necessary after removal on heavy clay lots, starts at $125. Wood chipping runs from $105. Tree pruning and crown reduction, often needed on mature elms and ash to reduce weight and improve structure, begin at $235. Full tree trimming for hazard reduction starts at $265. Tree removal, elm assessment, ash borer assessment, tree planting, fruit tree pruning, arborist reports, and emergency services are quoted on site after a free estimate. Factors affecting cost include tree size, species, site access (driveways and back lanes can limit equipment), urgency, and disposal method. We deliver all estimates within 24 hours and are reachable at (431) 441-0851 for immediate questions.

🌳 ISA Certified Arborists — fully insured service in Tache.

My elm tree looks sick and has dark streaks under the bark. What should I do?
Those streaks are a classic sign of Dutch elm disease. Do not delay. Contact us for a free assessment. If the tree is infected, removal is often the only option, and the elm wood must be disposed of under strict provincial rules that apply across Manitoba. The sooner you act, the better, because the disease can spread to neighbouring elms through root grafts in the soil. We handle the assessment, removal, and compliant wood disposal.
A heavy wet snow bent a branch over my garage. Can you remove it today?
Yes. We offer 24/7 emergency tree removal and branch removal, particularly after the heavy wet snow that strikes Tache in late spring and early fall when trees are still in full leaf. Call us immediately at (431) 441-0851 and describe the hazard. We will dispatch a crew and provide a free estimate on site. Emergency work is billed the same as routine work, with no premium for the hour.
My green ash tree is dying from the emerald ash borer. Should I remove it now or wait?
A green ash attacked by the emerald ash borer will not recover. Once the tree becomes brittle, it becomes a serious hazard, especially on acreages where limbs can fall toward a house or garage. We recommend removal before the wood weakens further. We offer a free estimate and can schedule removal at your convenience. If the tree is still healthy enough to treat, we can discuss that option too, but removal is the safer long-term choice for most homeowners in the Winnipeg area.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree on my property in Tache?
For most trees on private land, no permit is required. However, elm is a special case under provincial rules, and we always check the regulations for your specific address and tree species. The City of Winnipeg manages trees on public boulevards and municipal land, which only the municipality may prune or remove. We work only on private property and respect all local and provincial rules. When in doubt, we verify before we start.
Why can't you prune my elm tree in June?
Elm pruning is banned from April 1 to July 31 across Manitoba. This ban prevents the spread of Dutch elm disease through fresh wounds during the season when the disease is most active. We schedule elm pruning work for late fall, winter, or early spring. If your elm has a dead branch that is a hazard, we can assess whether removal of that limb is justified even within the ban window, but routine pruning must wait.
A tree is hanging over the hydro line at the edge of my property. Can you cut it?
No. If a tree touches or threatens Manitoba Hydro's public distribution network, the utility must handle it. We work only around your private electrical service entrance (the wire from the pole to your house) and respect the required approach distances. Contact Manitoba Hydro directly to report a tree on their lines. We can, however, help with trees that threaten your private property or that are near your service entrance without touching the public network.
What is the best time of year to prune your trees on your Tache acreage?
Structural pruning is best done in dormancy, from late fall to late winter, when trees have dropped their leaves and the work is cleaner and safer. Elm pruning must occur outside the April 1 to July 31 ban, so late fall and winter are ideal. Hedge trimming is typically done in late spring and summer once new growth has hardened. Emerald ash borer treatment, if the tree is still viable, is most effective from late spring to early summer. Emergency removals happen year-round, but they peak after heavy wet snow on leafed-out trees in late spring and after summer windstorms. Call us to discuss the best timing for your specific trees.
