The mature maples arching over Moncton's west-end streets and the surviving elms lining heritage boulevards need expert care, and the shallow root plates across suburban lots demand precision when a tree comes down. Hub City Tree Trimming has served homeowners and property managers across Moncton and the surrounding area since 2015, handling everything from routine trimming to emergency removals after ice storms and windstorms that leave limbs hanging over houses, cars and service lines.

Whether you are in the E1C 1E8 postal area or elsewhere in Moncton, our ISA Certified Arborists understand the local clay soils, the species common to New Brunswick, and the tight backyards reachable only through a standard gate. We are fully insured and equipped to work safely around private electrical service entrances, respecting all approach distances and municipal requirements.

Our Expertise Across Moncton

Moncton sits on heavy till that stays wet into spring, and that shallow water table means root plates are shallow too. The city's mix of silver and sugar maples, red and white oaks, birches, and Norway spruces all thrive here, but they also grow large and dense. Add the ravine lots with steep access across the Moncton area, the cedar hedges on nearly every property line, and the mature street trees in post-war subdivisions, and you have a landscape that demands both knowledge and equipment. We know how to trim and prune these species in dormancy, when the risk of disease and stress is lowest. We know how to grind stumps in tight spaces. We know which ash trees have been compromised by the emerald ash borer and need urgent attention.

Since 2015, we have worked on hundreds of properties across Moncton and the surrounding municipalities. Our crews have felled trees in backyards where access is a puzzle, cleared lots where the grade is uneven, and responded to emergencies at all hours when a storm splits a trunk or brings down a limb.

How a Tree Care Unfolds at Your Moncton Property

Step one is a free estimate. You describe the work, we visit your property, assess the tree or trees, check for obstacles (power lines, structures, neighbouring fences), and discuss the scope and timeline. If the City of Moncton requires a permit for removal, we can prepare an arborist report to support your application.

Step two is the work itself. Our crews arrive with the right equipment for the job: chainsaws and rigging for a large removal, a stump grinder for grinding stumps below grade, hedge trimmers for cedar work, or climbing gear for pruning high limbs. We work safely around your home and your neighbours' property, respecting all setbacks from private service lines and never touching the public distribution network operated by NB Power.

Step three is cleanup. We remove all brush and debris, chip wood on site if you wish, and leave the property ready. Stumps are ground down or removed with roots, depending on your preference and the soil conditions.

Pricing for tree work in Moncton reflects the size and species of the tree, the difficulty of access (ravine lots and tight backyards cost more), whether climbing is required, and whether the City of Moncton has mandated a permit and arborist report. Routine trimming starts from $165, pruning from $140, and stump grinding from $80. Hedge and cedar hedge trimming begins at $45. Full tree removal, emergency work, and complex jobs such as tree cabling, emerald ash borer treatment, or lot clearing are quoted individually. We provide a free estimate by phone or at your property, and we can often schedule work within days. Emergency removals are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

🌳 ISA Certified Arborists — fully insured service in Moncton.

The City of Moncton says my ash tree needs to come down. Do I need a permit?
The City of Moncton may require a permit for private tree removal, depending on the size and location of the tree. A permit application is normally supported by an arborist report, which documents the tree's condition, species, and location relative to structures and property lines. We can prepare that report for you. Rules and thresholds differ from one municipality to the next across the Moncton area, so it is worth checking with your local planning office if you are unsure. Call us at (506) 805-0418 and we will advise you on the next steps.
A branch is hanging over my power line. Can you trim it?
If the branch is touching or very close to the public distribution lines operated by NB Power, do not attempt to trim it yourself and do not hire a contractor to do so. Contact NB Power directly to report the hazard. If the branch is near your own private service entrance (the wire from the pole to your house), we can trim it safely, respecting the required approach distances. Call us at (506) 805-0418 to describe the situation and we will let you know whether the work is within our scope.
How much does stump grinding cost in Moncton?
Stump grinding starts from $80, depending on the diameter and depth of the stump and whether the surrounding soil is accessible by equipment. A large stump in a tight backyard or on a ravine lot may cost more. If you want the roots removed as well, we offer full stump and root removal by quote. Contact us at (506) 805-0418 for a free estimate on your specific stump.
Can you remove a tree in my backyard if there is only a gate for access?
Yes. Many Moncton properties have tight backyards reachable only through a standard gate, and we have the experience and equipment to work in those spaces. Depending on the size of the tree and the dimensions of the gate, we may need to disassemble equipment, carry pieces through by hand, or use a smaller machine. The cost may be higher than for a tree on an open lot, but it is doable. Call us at (506) 805-0418 to discuss your access situation.
When is the best time to trim trees in Moncton?
Trimming and structural pruning are best done in dormancy, from late fall to late winter, when the tree is not actively growing and the risk of disease and pest entry is lowest. Cedar hedge trimming is best done in late spring and summer, after new growth has hardened off. If a tree is damaged in a storm or poses a safety risk, we can remove or trim it at any time of year. Our emergency crews respond 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Are you insured and certified to work on trees in Moncton?
Yes. Hub City Tree Trimming is a fully insured, local company. Our arborists hold ISA Certified Arborist credentials, which means they have passed a rigorous examination on tree biology, pruning standards, safety, and pest and disease identification. We carry liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage. You can trust us to work safely on your property and to document any damage for your insurer.
My ash tree looks sick. Is it the emerald ash borer?
The emerald ash borer (EAB) has killed many ash trees across New Brunswick, and Moncton has lost a significant number. Signs include thinning crown, D-shaped exit holes in the bark, and declining vigour. We offer tree disease diagnosis from $70 and can recommend treatment or removal. If the tree is still healthy enough to treat, emerald ash borer injection is most effective when done from late spring to early summer. Call us at (506) 805-0418 to have your ash tree assessed.
