At JL’s Tree Service, we specialize in safe, efficient, and low-impact remote control tree removal. Whether it’s a small tree in your backyard or a large, hazardous tree near buildings or power lines, our advanced grapple saw technology allows us to handle every job with precision, safety, and minimal disruption to your property.

At JL’s Tree Service, we’re proud to operate one of only a handful of custom-built grapplesaw trucks in Canada. Known as XCALIBUR, this state-of-the-art machine was the result of a two-year process, designed specifically for safe and efficient tree removal — including emergency tree removal.

XCALIBUR provides Remote Control Tree Removal with a reach of up to 114 feet. Operated entirely by remote control, it can grab, cut, and safely lower tree sections into a designated drop zone without risk to people or property. Watching it in action often draws a crowd, as it truly is a spectacle of precision and innovation.

This equipment represents the safest and most efficient method of tree removal in the industry, completing the work of a four-person crew in a fraction of the time. Best of all, it leaves your property undisturbed and intact — making it ideal for both residential and commercial projects.

Our self-propelled aerial lift is designed for trimming and removing trees in areas that are otherwise difficult to reach. With turf-friendly tires and articulated steering, this compact machine delivers safety and efficiency right into your backyard — giving you peace of mind while we work around your home.

At only 5.5 feet wide, the aerial lift is a far better alternative to traditional bucket trucks, which are often too large and intrusive for residential spaces. Its narrow design allows us to access tight areas without damaging your lawn, gardens, or property.

With a 61-foot working height and 37-foot lateral reach, our aerial lift allows us to safely reach trees without relying on outdated and risky climbing methods. This means faster, cleaner, and safer results for every project.

When there’s a large amount of material to move, JL’s Tree Service has the right equipment for the job. Our Avant 528 loader is an industry-leading machine built to handle the daily demands of tree work with power and precision. With articulated steering and turf-friendly tires, it protects your lawn while allowing us to complete jobs safely and efficiently.

Nicknamed the “Green Machine,” this compact powerhouse makes quick work of even the toughest tasks. At only 45 inches wide, it can maneuver through tight spaces with ease while still lifting over 2,000 pounds. That means faster cleanup, fewer risks of injury, and a smoother, more efficient job from start to finish.

At JL’s Tree Service, climbing is always our last resort, as it carries the greatest risk to both our team and your property. However, there are times when equipment access isn’t possible, and climbing is the only way to get the job done.

With over 30 years of combined climbing experience, our team is highly skilled in tackling even the most challenging tree removals and pruning projects. You can trust that your property is in safe hands when traditional climbing methods are required.

Owner Joe, who founded JL’s Tree Service, is a former climbing technician at Humber College, where he taught proper climbing techniques to the next generation of arborists. Many of his students now work across Ontario, including with local companies in our own service area.

When you hire JL’s, you benefit from unmatched expertise and knowledge in safe tree climbing practices. From the most straightforward climbs to the most technical tree jobs in our history, our team has the know-how to get it done right.
