Tree cutting cost in Quebec — directory page 10

There is no single price for tree cutting. This calculator models one routine tree removal using height, access and nearby structures. Its base assumptions are CAD $300–700 up to 6 m, $700–1,500 up to 12 m, $1,400–3,000 up to 20 m and $2,500–5,000 above 20 m. These are editorial scenario inputs, not surveyed city averages.

Restricted access and nearby structures can increase the model result. Stump grinding, hauling and your own quoted extras are separate. Permits, specialist equipment, tax and restoration are not included unless you explicitly account for them. A contractor must confirm the actual scope and price.

Power-line involvement, unstable trees and urgent danger require a qualified assessment. The calculator stops automatic pricing when you select a hazard. It is a budgeting aid, not a tree-risk assessment or instructions for cutting.

This is an English-language planning tool for Quebec. Municipal permit documents may be in French. Use the current official text, ask for clarification when needed and request a written scope you understand before signing.

Ask each contractor whether taxes, removal permission, reports, hauling and replacement planting are included. The calculator reports CAD before tax and does not assign a Quebec-wide permit fee or an unverified local price.

Ask for removal, wood handling, hauling, stump work and cleanup as separate line items. Describe access and nearby structures. Ask who handles permission and whether the written total includes tax.

Verify the provider’s identity, credentials, insurance and applicable worker coverage. Ask how changes to the scope will be approved and how your property will be protected. A calculator cannot perform those checks for you.
