Frequently Asked Questions – Tree Cutting in Gatineau
Do you need a permit to cut down a tree in Gatineau?
Yes. A City authorization certificate is required to fell a deciduous tree ≥ 10 cm in diameter measured at 1.3 m from the ground (and for conifers based on criteria specified by the City). You can apply via 311 or online, or visit the City of Gatineau portal for more information.
In what cases is felling generally accepted by the City?
Typically when a tree is dead, dangerous, suffering from an incurable disease, compromising infrastructure, or is part of an authorized project. The planning department validates the reasons when the application is made.
What are the risks of cutting without a permit?
Notices of violation and corrective requirements may apply; the City handles these cases within the framework of its urban planning regulations. It is best to validate before any cutting.
What safety rules apply during felling?
The work must comply with CNESST guides (PPE, working at height, compliant saw, directional felling procedures, etc.).
What sectors do you serve?
We operate throughout the Outaouais region (e.g., Gatineau, Hull, Aylmer, Buckingham, Masson-Angers). For specific municipal requirements, refer to the City's website.
