Tree protection plans in Edmonton for construction, demolition, excavation, and site development near retained trees. Clear, practical consulting arborist support.

What is a Tree Protection Plan?

A tree protection plan is a site-based arborist deliverable used where construction activity may affect existing trees. It typically identifies retained trees, tree protection zones, required protective fencing locations, and notes or recommendations intended to reduce avoidable damage during site work.

Tree protection plans are commonly needed when work is proposed near public trees, retained private trees, excavation zones, servicing routes, access paths, or material staging areas.


When a tree protection plan may be needed

A tree protection plan may be useful or required when:

  • construction is taking place near existing trees

  • excavation or servicing is planned near tree roots

  • a project includes retained trees on or near the site

  • demolition, grading, or access work may impact tree protection zones

  • a municipality, consultant, or project team requires arborist documentation

Requirements vary by project and jurisdiction, so it is always best to confirm current submission needs for the specific site.


What is included in your protection plan

Depending on the project, a tree protection plan may include:

  • site review

  • tree identification and assessment of retained trees

  • tree protection zone determination

  • tree protection fencing locations

  • arborist notes and recommendations

  • plan drawing support

  • revision rounds where applicable

The goal is to provide a plan that is clear, practical, and easy for project teams to follow.

Pricing

Tree protection plan pricing depends on scope, tree count, and site complexity.

  • Up to two municipal trees: $450

  • Each additional municipal tree: $175

  • Private-tree-only sites: starting at $380

These starting fees reflect the current standard pricing structure and may vary depending on project complexity, access, and revision needs.
