About Esat’s Tree Solutions
Tree care with skill, respect, and a sustainability-first mindset
I’ve loved climbing trees since I was a kid – maybe because I’m so short.
I started my climbing career in Germany as an industrial climber inspecting cell towers, but when I came to Canada my focus shifted to trees. I’ve now been working in tree care for the past 8 years, with 6 years of professional arborist training and experience.
For me, being an arborist is not just about cutting trees down. It’s about helping trees thrive where possible, protecting people and property, and bringing a thoughtful, science-based approach to every job.
- Professional pruning and removals
- Safety-oriented climbing and rigging

A unique approach to tree care
Sustainability-first tree care
Trees are more than landscape features – they are part of a living ecosystem that supports birds, pollinators, wildlife, soil health, and the natural character of the land. Every cut, every pruning decision, and every removal carries an impact beyond the tree itself.
That is why we approach tree care with a higher level of responsibility. Our work is guided not only by safety and arboricultural standards, but by a genuine respect for nature and the environment we all share.
Whenever possible, we schedule work around sensitive seasonal cycles such as bird nesting periods and other important wildlife activity. In ecologically sensitive settings, we take extra care to minimize disturbance and preserve the balance already in place.
Where appropriate, we may recommend leaving standing trunks as valuable habitat features, or creating natural brush and habitat piles that provide shelter and protection for local species. What may seem like leftover material can become part of a thriving ecosystem.
We also use biodegradable chain oil and avoid climbing with spurs unless a tree is being removed – to prevent unnecessary damage to living trees. And as a member of Atmos Tree, an international network of arborists, we plant two trees for every tree removed.
Our philosophy is simple: tree care should improve a property without diminishing the life around it. Responsible stewardship means protecting both your landscape and the natural world that depends on it.
