Tree protection laws are in place to maintain our beautiful cities.
We all know that trees are vital to the environment and offer a multitude of benefits in everyday life, from providing shade on warm days to adding to the natural beauty of our yards. In some municipalities, tree protection regulations are in place to prevent anyone from removing or damaging trees during the construction process. At Hudson Tree Services, we’re highly knowledgeable about local tree protection regulations and would like to share some key information about these areas.
The main purpose of tree protection zones is to avoid harming the tree or the tree’s root system. Before a construction project can take place, a certified arborist must inspect the tree to determine if it’s in good health. A healthy, mature tree will be fenced off from the construction area, and the construction must not disturb the roots underground.
However, it’s important to note that construction projects aren’t restricted to public properties or businesses. If you’re planning to add on to your home, for example, you might need to check if you’re located in a tree protection zone. If you are, you’ll need to contact a certified arborist to inspect the trees on your property and determine whether construction can be completed without harming healthy trees.
If you’d like to learn more about tree protection regulations or need an arborist to inspect an area before a project begins, we encourage you to reach out to our team. Simply give us a call for more information.

Dion and his crew were professional and a pleasure to deal with. They went above and beyond our expectations. I highly recommend Hudson Tree Services.
Ian D.
Thanks to Dion and his team — high quality, professional and affordable price! They helped us get our backyard back, cutting all the unwanted trees. I will get them back in the spring to plant new trees.
Becca C.
Dion and his team were the promptest company of all the ones we contacted and when on site were very professional with my family and my neighbours as he was removing a tree that sat on our property line. I would highly recommend Dion and his team and would definitely use them again.
Byron M.
My large, mature tree split in half after an ice storm, and I called Dion immediately as he had trimmed my tree in the past. He responded very quickly, and the branch was safely removed within a day. Although the branch sprawled across a large portion of my property including fences, detached garages, and smaller trees, all we’re safe and untouched once the work was complete. I would recommend Dion and his crew to others. Thank you.
