Trees that are in close proximity to overhead power lines could compromise public safety and the reliability of your electricity supply. If there are trees on your property that are near power lines and need to be trimmed or removed, we are here to help.
If a tree on your property is within three meters of an overhead power line (pole to pole), do not attempt to prune it yourself. Our qualified staff and contractors will trim its branches for you.
However, if the tree is near a service wire that feeds electricity directly to your home (pole to home), it is your responsibility to have it trimmed. In such cases, you may submit a request for the isolation of your service by filling out our service request form online. We will arrange a temporary planned outage on your property to create a safe work environment to allow you or a licensed contractor to trim or remove the trees.
To notify us of a forestry concern such as trees close to our power lines (pole to pole) that need to be trimmed or other forestry issues that do not require an isolation of service (temporary power disconnection), please contact us.
This service is free of charge.
