Permanent Vine Removal & Elimination in Victoria, BC

Vines are among the most destructive and persistent invasive plants on Vancouver Island. Whether it’s English ivy climbing your home, morning glory choking your garden, or bittersweet smothering trees, unmanaged vines can cause serious structural, environmental, and aesthetic damage.

At Ascent Yard Care, we specialize in permanent vine removal and elimination services. With advanced techniques, commercial-grade tools, and deep experience handling invasive plants, we remove vines from buildings, fences, trees, garden beds, and natural areas—and we make sure they don’t come back.

Why Vines Are a Serious Problem

Left unchecked, invasive vines can:

• Damage home exteriors, siding, gutters, and roofs
• Overwhelm trees, leading to disease or collapse
• Destroy fences, sheds, arbors, and structures
• Smother native plants and garden beds
• Cause legal issues between neighbors or with stratas
• Reappear from deep, aggressive root systems if not properly removed

Many vines regrow from fragments, making DIY removal ineffective. Cutting alone won’t work—permanent vine control requires targeted, multi-step action.

Our Vine Removal Process

1. Thorough Site Assessment

We identify the vine species, extent of infestation, and any property or ecological risks. This allows us to develop a customized removal and control plan.

2. Mechanical Removal

We carefully cut, dig, and remove vines by root and stem, including from walls, fences, roofs, trees, and underground rhizomes. Specialized tools allow access to tight or delicate spaces.

3. Herbicide or Organic Suppression (Optional)

To prevent regrowth, we offer targeted herbicide application or organic suppression methods, depending on your preference. We always follow provincial regulations and use minimal-impact products.

4. Disposal & Site Clean-Up

We haul away all vine material—no piles left behind. In severe infestations, we can also restore damaged gardens or replant bare areas to stabilize soil and prevent re-invasion.

5. Ongoing Monitoring or Follow-Up (If Needed)

Some invasive vines require multi-stage control over several months. We offer follow-up visits to ensure permanent elimination.
