What we do

We handle the trees you can't ignore, from difficult removals and stump grinding to wildfire resilience clearing.

Tree Removal

Tree Removal & Stump Grinding

Dead, diseased, hazardous, or simply in the wrong spot, we remove trees of all sizes safely and efficiently. Difficult access is no problem; our team is equipped for tight lots, steep terrain, and close proximity to structures. Once it's down, we grind the stump flush so your yard is clean and usable again.

➜
Pruning and Tree Shaping

Pruning

Healthy trees need the right cuts at the right time. We assess tree health, then prune to extend the life of your tree and create an improved appearance, whether that means opening up a canopy, removing dead and diseased brances or clearing from nearby structures.

➜
Wildfire Resiliene Clearing

Wildfire Resiliene Clearing

For homeowners in wildfire risk zones, we remove or reduce the trees and undergrowth in proximity to your home and outbuildings to create a safer space.

About Hardy Bear

Professional tree care, done safely and cleanly

Hardy Bear Tree Services is a proud, local and family-owned business rooted right here in the St.Albert area, serving homeowners, acreages, lake lots, and commercial properties with safety-first tree care.

About Hardy Bear

Hardy Bear Tree Service logo

Hardy Bear Tree Services is a local and family-owned business rooted in the St. Albert area.

Our story began 15 years ago when Daryl and his young family decided to tackle two overgrown trees in the yard: a massive front-yard spruce and a backyard laurel leaf that were taking over the play space.

What started as a simple family project quickly drew a crowd; neighbors gathered to watch as the trees were carefully removed. That day sparked something bigger: turning our hands-on experience into a trusted local tree service where every customer is treated like a neighbor.

Today, we bring the same care, safety, and neighborly approach to every job-whether it's tree removal, stump grinding, pruning, or tree and underbrush clearing to protect properties from wildfire risk. As a family business, we value trust, transparency, and creating a safe yard space.

Meet Daryl

Daryl working safely

Daryl brings 20 years' experience to Hardy Bear Tree Services.

He has been removing tree, stump grinding and pruning trees in St. Albert and area for 15 years. Daryl's wildfire resilience skills were honed during his work.

Daryl worked as a forest fire fighter on an initial attack crew. His work focused on removing trees, reducing fire risk, and protecting people and properties from wildfire threats. This experience has given him advanced training in risk assessment, hazard mitigation, and working safely in high pressure environments. He also worked as a chain saw operator in forestry operations, where precision, safety, and technical skill are essential.

At Hardy Bear Tree Services, Daryl's commitment is simple: deliver expert tree care with safety, integrity, and fire prevention in mind. Whether it is tree removal, pruning, or wildfire resilience, you can trust that your property is in experienced and capable hands.
