The first thing you should know about cutting trees down safely is that it is much better to leave this job to the professionals. Countless do-it-yourselfers have embarked on a tree removal project by themselves, simply because they were proficient with a chainsaw. But there’s a lot more involved with tree removal than knowing how to operate a chainsaw.
In a neighborhood packed with houses which are situated close together, it’s very easy to have trees or large branches fall in an unexpected direction and cause major damage, either to your home or to your neighbor’s. The last thing you want to do while you’re trying to save money is to incur the cost of repairing your neighbor’s roof or broken windows.
Why tree removal should be left to the pros
Especially with a mature tree which is very large, removing that tree can be a very dangerous activity to undertake for a homeowner. Sometimes more than a chainsaw is called for, and in the case of a really big tree, it might even be necessary to involve a crane. Professionals are fully trained and equipped to use whatever heavy machinery might be necessary to handle the removal of any large tree.
There’s also a good deal of knowledge which a professional would typically have that a do-it-yourselfer would be unaware of, for instance whether or not a tree is hollow in certain areas, and where exactly cuts should be made. Having a deep knowledge of trees in general prepares the professional to take the best approach to tree-cutting.
If there are any electrical wires which happen to cross your yard where the tree is located, that’s another great reason to leave it to a professional. You don’t want to have part of your tree falling on an electrical line, because that will probably end up costing you some serious money for repairs to be carried out by a utility company.
The truth is, you might very well end up saving money by hiring a professional to do a tree removal for you, because you’ll avoid the possibility of doing serious damage to your home or to any of the surrounding properties. When it comes time to remove all the branches and leaves on the tree, that will be part of the service provided by a professional tree removal specialist.
If you had to dispose of all that material yourself, you might have difficulty finding a vehicle large enough for the job, then it would probably be hard to load the heavy branches on to that vehicle, and you might not have anywhere nearby where you can dispose of the branches after they’ve all been cut down. All those hassles are removed when you hire a knowledgeable and experienced tree removal pro.
