GET THE SCOPE RIGHT
Include the operating constraints in the quote.
A useful scope identifies work areas, access windows, pedestrian and vehicle routes, cleanup and documentation. Confirm responsibility for notices, temporary closures and any traffic-control requirements. Ask the contractor directly for relevant insurance and qualifications; this website does not verify or guarantee them.
For development or construction-related work, confirm tree-protection and permit requirements early in the project.
Guelph tree permit guidance →Common questions
Can I request work across several properties?
Describe the locations and priorities in your enquiry. Availability and coverage must be confirmed before a contractor commits to the work.
Do you supply insurance certificates?
The contractor undertaking the work must provide their own documentation. Ask for evidence suitable for your property’s requirements before approving a contract.
