Why us?
Above all for our passion—the passion that lives within us at all times. The one that pushes us to learn more, to become better, and to be happy.
Our Experience
After successfully completing our DEP in arboriculture in 2005, our new knowledge allowed us to create Arboquébec. This helped us acquire experience across several spheres of arboriculture. This experience is worth its weight in gold, and we are pleased to put it at your disposal.
Database
One of our founding members has also been a programmer-analyst since 2001 and built a customized system to allow for proper monitoring of your trees. This allows us to track their dimensions, injuries, invading insects, affecting diseases, care provided, or anything else that may impact them. This data enables us to offer top-tier and highly adapted arboricultural services.
ISA Certification
We have several arborists certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA). This involves having a minimum of several years of experience and passing a comprehensive exam developed by arboriculture experts. Furthermore, the arborist must undergo continuous training to earn enough credits to renew their certification every 3 years.
