Maple Ridge sits along the north bank under the mountains, where acreages and second-growth forest meet long treed driveways and steep ravine lots. After a windstorm or a dry summer, the calls come in fast: a western redcedar browning from the top down, a Douglas-fir limb hanging over the house, or a whole root plate lifted out of rain-saturated clay by a strong gust.
Fraser Ridge Tree Trimming has served Maple Ridge and the surrounding area since 2012. Our ISA Certified Arborists know the local soil, the species that thrive here, and the urgencies that drive homeowners to pick up the phone. Whether you are in the V2X 6A9 postal code or nearby, we handle tree removal, tree trimming, stump grinding, and the emergency calls that come with windthrow and storm damage.
Our Expertise in Maple Ridge, V2X 6A9
Maple Ridge's landscape is shaped by western redcedar as tall yard trees and long clipped hedges, many of them browning and thinning from the top down after the dry summers that follow wet winters. Second-growth Douglas-fir stands are retained through subdivisions. Western hemlock clings to the slopes, while mossy big-leaf maple, red alder, and black cottonwood occupy the wet ground. English laurel hedges and ornamental cherry dot the properties. Himalayan blackberry creeps across untended edges, and the heavy wet clay beneath it all creates both the lush growth and the instability that leads to windthrow.
We specialize in western redcedar dieback assessment, the signature tree-health issue across this region. We also manage the access clearing and windthrow cleanup that steep wooded ravines and lowland flats demand. Since 2012, we have worked across Maple Ridge and the Surrey area as a local, fully insured company. Our crews are covered by WorkSafeBC, and our arborists hold ISA certification.

How a Tree Care Visit Works in Maple Ridge
Step one is your free estimate. Call us at (236) 707-6867 or request a quote online. We inspect the tree, assess the hazard, and discuss your goals. If the City of Maple Ridge requires a permit for removal (many private tree removals do), we can prepare an arborist report to support your application.
Step two is the work itself. Our crews arrive with the equipment suited to your site, whether that is a tight ravine lot, a driveway lined with cedars, or an acre with multiple hazards. We check for active bird nests in spring and early summer before we start, as nests are protected under provincial law. We respect approach distances near your private electrical service entrance and never touch BC Hydro's distribution lines.
Step three is clean-up. We chip the wood on site when it makes sense, haul debris to our disposal partner, and leave your property ready to use again. Stumps are ground below grade so you can replant or landscape over the spot.
Pricing in Maple Ridge depends on tree size, species, site access, and urgency. A low branch removal starts from $115. Tree trimming begins at $355, tree pruning and crown reduction from $325. Stump grinding runs from $175, wood chipping from $140. Larger work such as full tree removal, storm cleanup, or land clearing begins with a free estimate because the variables are too numerous to quote by phone. Emergency tree removal is available 24/7 and year-round, peaking during the fall and winter windstorm season when rain-saturated ground gives way. Call (236) 707-6867 for an estimate, or request one online and we will contact you within 24 hours.
