And just as he worked with his dad, his son Ryan is part of Larry’s business, acting as his dad’s second-in-command and the company’s head general foreman. The family participation in the business does not end there. Larry’s wife is his partner and helps run the company. His daughter works there too, along with an uncle and aunt who run the stump machines. “Yeah, it’s definitely a family business,” says Larry, who said he wants to retire, but not just yet.
The company started in Kamloops in 2008. Pine Valley Tree Services and Landscaping has become the premier tree services company in central BC – providing clients with dependable, reputable and honest service in addressing their tree care needs. The company has now expanded to Salmon Arm, Vernon and Kelowna.
Staffed by a “family” of reliable, expert professionals, Pine Valley’s services include removal of hazardous trees due to wildfires or disease, tree pruning and shaping, and utility arborist services designed to keep power lines safe and intact. They offer including 24/7 emergency services response.
Part of the service Pine Valley offers is also educational. Teaching the public about tree care is important, because proper preventative maintenance will not only extend the life of a tree but also save money in the long run if it helps avoid an expensive removal later.
Because of the importance of getting that information out to the public — especially in the dry climate of the BC Southern Interior, Pine Valley includes a series of blog posts on its website that talk about various aspects of tree maintenance and the importance of trees to the environment.
At this time of year, one maintenance tips Larry Kwak gives is the importance of not only giving trees plenty of water but also fertilizing them a few times a year to help maintain their health and growth. “A lot of people don’t water their trees enough and most don’t think about fertilizing them,” he says. When people water their lawns near trees, the grass tends to absorb most of the water. So, it’s important to provide enough water to help sustain the tree too. If it is a large tree or a number of trees, that can mean more water than one may think.
As certified arborists, Larry and his managers Ryan or Nathaniel can also advise about the health of trees – they are trained to identify tree species and know about their specific management needs.

We could not be more impressed. Ryan and his crew were punctual and courteous. They did a thorough job and somehow managed to make our poor half-dead tree look alive again. They were efficient and left the yard extremely tidy. Larry was easy to deal with and quick to respond to our enquiries. If you need your trees looked after, feel confident engaging Pine Valley's services.
We have used numerous tree services over the years. We decided to try Pine Valley Tree Services this spring. They arrived on time, were friendly, knowledgeable, listened to our requests, suggested various options, and completed a thorough site assessment of our trees. We received a detailed estimate of the costs, including various options and their related costs. The Pine Valley Tree Services crew and equipment arrived on time, and completed the removal of some very large trees and stumps. The crew was all very professional, they effectively completed all the work required, and they ensured the area was cleaned up prior to leaving. We would not hesitate to use Pine Valley Tree Services again, and would recommend them to those looking for Tree Services.

10/10 Tree Services
Pine Valley Pruned large trees and removed stumps in the house we recently moved into. There service was good and cost effective.
6/10 Stump Removal
I needed to get 3 stumps removed from the front of my house left behind from overgrown cedars we removed the previous spring. Called these guys and was given a quot over the phone that I was happy with. They came and grinded the stumps right down. The service was great and did the job I wanted to get done. However, the trailer and grinder they used and drove up on my lawn left 2 ruts in my lawn that I need to fill with sand thought the summer. Pain in the you know what.
Safety Issues
Powerlines are dangerous and you should never try to remove overgrowth without the help of a professional. Our certified utility arborists work alongside municipalities and individual homeowners to keep branches and debris clear from power lines and remove dangerous debris after storms. As part of our fleet, we use 60 ft bucket truck lifts for a fast and safe alternative to climbing. For removal of tree limbs and tree falling, contact us to hire one of our certified fallers.
