Transit & Infrastructure Expansion: Metrolinx Corridor Projects

The Scope: Managing comprehensive environmental and structural risk mitigation for critical rail corridor expansions, including massive multi-phase tunneling projects under active rail lines.

Scale & Execution: Successfully compiled and executed extensive arborist reports encompassing over 5,000 trees, bridging the gap between rigorous transit compliance and physical, on-site clearing.

The Advantage: Total alignment with complex rail-safety protocols, zero-delay administrative reporting, and precise execution inside tightly restricted environmental windows.

Tier-One Civil Contracting: Green Infrastructure Partners (GIP)

The Scope: Serving as the strategic arboricultural partner for large-scale municipal water main, lateral infrastructure, and basement flood protection campaigns.

Reporting & Strategy: We don’t just clear trees; we manage the reporting and data infrastructure that determines exactly how many trees can be preserved, prune-to-injure thresholds, or required removals.

The Advantage: Seamless field integration with heavy civil engineering operations. We protect the municipality’s environmental assets while ensuring the contractor’s underground timelines stay perfectly on track.

Onside Restoration - preferred vendor program

First-Response Emergency Mitigation: On Side Restoration & Intact Insurance

The Scope: Acting as the trusted preferred vendor for On Side Restoration (the General Contractor owned by Intact Insurance) to handle high-liability emergency tree failures across the GTA.

Scale & Execution: Servicing a massive footprint through Intact’s 38% share of the GTA residential insurance market, alongside major regional carriers like Aviva and TD Insurance.

The Advantage: Fast-response hazard mapping and rapid deployment. We provide the meticulous documentation, structural photographic evidence, and clean billing pipelines required by premier insurers to settle catastrophic claims safely and swiftly.

Municipal Civil Support: City of Toronto & Region of Peel

The Scope: Executing complex municipal clearing and targeted enforcement work. This includes managing major infrastructure tree campaigns alongside GIP, as well as responding to official City-issued tree work orders on technical residential properties.

Scale & Execution: Successfully managed and executed multi-kilometer vegetative clearance campaigns along major transit arteries, including active, open 6-to-8-lane sections of Dixie Road for the Region of Peel.

The Advantage: Proven ability to manage complex traffic control, heavy pedestrian risk, and massive public visibility while maintaining continuous field progress without safety incidents.

UHN & University of Toronto

High-Security Institutional Networks: UHN & University of Toronto

The Scope: Providing ongoing, on-demand structural preservation, high-weight pruning, and technical removals for Canada’s premier healthcare and educational campuses, including the University Health Network (UHN) hospitals and the University of Toronto (UofT).

Scale & Execution: Routine and emergency management of mature urban canopies inside high-density, zero-disruption zones directly adjacent to active emergency emergency routes and critical hospital infrastructure.

The Advantage: Hyper-discreet, ultra-quiet operations scheduled to protect patient care and academic schedules, backed by rigid institutional compliance.
