DIY vs. Professional Tree Pruning

Some homeowners attempt to prune their own trees to save money and get a little exercise over a productive weekend. However, do-it-yourself tree pruning is quite difficult and can even be dangerous because most homeowners do not have the necessary knowledge or equipment to correctly perform the task.

Dangerous Tools

The arborist’s tools of the trade include hand saws, ladders and chainsaws – all of which can be dangerous implements when safety precautions are not observed. Warner arborists are trained to safely and effectively handle the tools of the trade to protect themselves, the customer and the customer’s property. Additionally, our arborists are fully insured and bonded in case of any unforeseen circumstances. Be safe and call a professional when you need tree trimming services.

Deceptive Appearances

Tree branches can appear to be sturdy and healthy, but looks can be deceiving. If you put your weight on a dead, rotted branch when you are twenty feet off the ground, the branch can easily give way, causing serious injury or worse. A trained professional tree trimming service can identify rotted branches and unhealthy trees.

Maneuvering Heights

Many homeowners will attempt to prune their own trees with a ladder and a small chainsaw. However, the DIY’er may not consider that he must maneuver the chainsaw and other tools on a ladder while several feet off the ground. A certified arborist will provide professional ladders, tools and even bucket trucks, when needed to get the job done. Moreover, the trained arborist is skilled at working several feet off the ground, and he is protected with safety equipment designed for the job. Don’t risk serious injury by attempting to prune large tree branches. Leave it to the professionals at Warner Tree Service.

Call a Tree Trimming Company for Best Results

We have all seen videos of the comedic and sometimes tragic results of do-it-yourselfers attempting to cut large limbs or to fell trees. The limb crashes on top of the house or car, causing thousands of dollars in property damage, or a crowd of bystanders is nearly crushed by the falling tree. Tree pruning is an unpredictable task. Professional arborists are trained to properly assess each trimming or cutting job, and then to take the necessary safety precautions to protect himself and the property while performing the pruning job. No need to risk life and limb. Call a Warner professional to handle all your tree trimming and pruning projects.
