Editorial Review
Our Take on Boreal Tree Solutions
Boreal Tree Solutions is the one to call when you are not sure a tree needs to come down. Joel Kosa holds the ISA, tree risk assessor and Manitoba arborist credentials the site lists. It is a small crew, so large storm jobs may wait.

Company Background
About Boreal Tree Solutions
Boreal Tree Solutions is built around Joel Kosa. The about page lists him as owner, an ISA Certified Arborist with certification number PR-5381A, a Qualified Tree Risk Assessor and a Licensed Manitoba Arborist, and says he has been working in tree care since 2013. Quinn Monkman, who has been on the ground crew for three seasons, is the other person the site names.
The service list is short and clear: tree and shrub pruning, tree removal, stump grinding, and a tree care consultation that the site says can cover care advice for an existing property or support for development plans. The company's stated mission is sustainable, affordable tree care and living alongside Winnipeg's urban forest, and it says it has worked in some of the city's community spaces. The pitch is education first. The site says the single greatest service it can offer is teaching clients how to care for their trees, and a free consultation ends in a written proposal.
Customer quotes on the site describe an arborist who ranked a yard's jobs by urgency, separating storm cleanup from work that could wait, and a crew that removed more than 25 stumps quickly. Google shows 4.9 stars from 89 reviews, read November 7, 2026. Hours are 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday to Friday and 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Saturday, with Sunday closed.
The limits are plain. The site shows Winnipeg, Manitoba and a phone number but no street address, and the Google listing gives 88 Arnold Avenue in Riverview. The footer still reads 2021, the crew is small, and no insurance or Workers Compensation Board details appear online.
Boreal Tree Solutions suits owners who want a risk assessment or a pruning plan before deciding on removal, and anyone planning construction near mature trees. It suits less well a big storm cleanup that needs several crews at once. Before booking, ask for a written proposal, proof of liability insurance and Workers Compensation Board coverage, and the licence numbers for everyone who will climb.
