I’m Tyler Thrussell, an ISA certified arborist with TRAQ endorsement and a horticulture professional based in Vancouver, BC — and the owner of Good Habit Arboriculture. Born and raised in Vancouver, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the city’s diverse and ever-evolving urban forest. With a Diploma in Horticulture from the University of Guelph and hands on experience across tree care, landscape maintenance, and municipal bylaw compliance, I — along with a few skilled industry professionals who join me on larger projects — bring a balanced, knowledgeable approach to managing trees in the Lower Mainland’s unique urban environment. My work is grounded in evidence-based arboricultural practice, clear communication, and a genuine commitment to helping clients make informed, confident decisions about the trees that shape their properties.

Over the past several years, I’ve built strong expertise in tree assessment, risk evaluation, and regulatory navigation — skills that allow me to support homeowners, builders, and designers through projects of all sizes. Whether I’m preparing a detailed arborist report, conducting a site assessment, or providing guidance during construction, my focus is always on safety, long-term tree health, and practical, defensible recommendations. My lifelong connection to Vancouver’s tree canopy drives my dedication to practicing responsible, forward-thinking arboriculture that supports the city’s green spaces for generations to come.

Good Habit Arboriculture was created around a simple philosophy: good tree care is a habit — one built on knowledge, consistency, and respect for the urban forest. I’m proud to serve communities across the Lower Mainland with reliable consulting, careful pruning and removals, and thoughtful planting services. Every project matters, and every tree deserves the right approach. My goal is to be the trusted expert you can count on for honest advice, quality workmanship, and a partnership that supports your landscape for years to come.
