Rani Wong

Hi Rani, Thanks for reaching out. We can come out urgently to assess the split and secure or remove the tree if required. Preliminary ballpark for a full removal: $960 to $1,848. The lower end assumes straightforward backyard access and a single crew; the higher end accounts for work over your garage and house that requires careful rigging, extra time, and higher risk. If the tree is salvageable and only pruning or stabilization is needed, expect roughly $600 to $1,200 depending on extent of work and complexity. Because this is an emergency we recommend a quick site visit so we can make a safe decision and provide a fixed quote. We can schedule ASAP, we do not need you to be home, and we are flexible with timing. Before we come, could you confirm whether there is a gate or narrow access to the backyard, any overhead power lines, and whether there are pets on site? If possible please text a couple of photos showing the trunk at chest height and the split area. Also tell us a good time today or this afternoon to stop by and the best number to reach you. Thanks, and feel free to give us a shout if you have any questions, Max, Calgary Tree Care & Arborist Service (587) 329-7161
