About Us

Rooted in Experience, Committed to Excellence

Grey Bruce Tree Workers was built on skill, trust, and a deep respect for the trade. Owner Zack Weiler grew up in Walkerton and first pursued psychology at Algoma University before realizing his true calling was in the trees. After training in Toronto and completing urban arboriculture at Humber College in 2010, Zack spent years refining his skills in high-risk tree removal before returning home to Grey-Bruce to start his own company.

Since 2012, Grey Bruce Tree Workers has been a trusted name for homeowners, businesses, and municipalities. With over 15 years of hands-on climbing and rigging experience, Zack has built a reputation for precision, safety, and the lowest-impact tree removal possible—tackling even the toughest jobs with expertise.

A Team You Can Trust

Tree work isn’t just about cutting wood—it’s about trust. When you hire Grey Bruce Tree Workers, you’re hiring the best in the business.

✅ A Crew Built on Trust & Experience

We don’t bring in random workers or new apprentices. Every crew member is someone Zack has worked with for years—trusted friends and professionals trained in advanced rigging and tree care techniques. These are experts Zack trusts with his own safety—and most importantly, with the safety of your property.

✅ No Cutting Corners—Only Skilled Arborists

There’s no revolving door of new hires, no undertrained laborers, and no subcontracted crews. Just a dedicated team of seasoned arborists who take pride in their craft.

(Although, give it 10 years or so, and Zack’s little boy might be taking on an apprenticeship of his own!)

Grey Bruce Tree Workers isn’t just a business—it’s a company built on long-term relationships and respect for the land. 

Over the years, we’ve:

🌲 Worked with landowners to maintain healthy tree cover and manage rural woodlots responsibly.

🏞 Removed hazardous trees in public spaces, keeping local parks and trails safe.

Donated wood and timber materials for community projects and local businesses.

🤝 Supported local events and small businesses, always prioritizing working with and hiring within the community.

We take pride in being a locally owned and operated company that serves Grey, Bruce, and Huron County with expert tree care and responsible land management.

Our Philosophy: Precision, Safety, and Respect

We don’t just cut trees—we strategically dismantle them to protect everything below. While other companies drop trees from the bottom, we climb to the top and take them down in sections, using professional rigging techniques to prevent damage to lawns, homes, and structures.

✅ Controlled Rigging & Low-Impact Removal

We specialize in surgical dismantling of hazardous and difficult trees. Every cut is planned to minimize property impact, and large wood sections are carefully lowered using advanced rigging.

✅ Commercial & Municipal Expertise

We frequently work with businesses, municipalities, and developers, handling roadside clearing, hazard tree removal, and commercial lot maintenance.

✅ More Than Just Removals—Full Tree Care Services

From pruning and hazard mitigation to stump grinding and post-hole digging, we provide comprehensive tree and land management services.

✅ Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Practices

We repurpose wood waste into firewood, mulch, or cribbing & dunnage materials for local industries.

✅ Fully Equipped for Any Job

We use specialized machinery, including a Spider Lift for tight-access tree work, ensuring safe and efficient service in any location.
