FAQ & Safety Procedures
Preparation
Here are some important safety points that our team will respect when cutting trees, pruning, trimming, or grubbing.
- Ensure that workers are properly trained on how to use the equipment. Some jurisdictions may have regulations on the type of training required for cutting and pruning trees.
- If a bucket truck or other vehicle is used, operators must be trained to operate these vehicles safely.
- Before pruning a tree, the area should be inspected to identify possible hazards (e.g., the presence of power lines, broken or cracked branches after a severe storm) and take appropriate measures to prevent injuries or accidents.
- Avoid any direct or indirect contact with the supply line.
- Mark an area around the tree and prevent access by spectators. Ideally, always work with another person who remains on the field.
- Learn to recognize trees weakened by the disease and the types of trees prone to cracking.
- Inspect tree branches for strength before climbing. Check tree cavities, rotten or dead branches, cracks in the trunk or branches, broken branches suspended in the tree, etc.
- Inspect the equipment and fall control lines before each use. Remove any damaged or defective equipment until it can be repaired or replaced.
Operation
- Break small dead branches by hand while climbing up the tree and remove large branches with appropriate tools.
- Place hands and feet on different branches and move with one hand or foot at a time.
- Use non-conductive tools and personal protective equipment when working near power lines.
- Make sure that you can see the cut that is made so that you don’t hurt yourself or cut the safety ropes unintentionally.
- If a ladder is used, attach it to a secure branch is a safe way to work.
- No tree cutting work is too big – or too small.

Deforestation
They were professional, I would absolutely recommend! They cleared my property in a few hours and left it tidy which impressed me compared to another company I had used. The price was a bit more expensive than the competition, but it was worth the money spent.
Clear Cutting
They were super fast, took precautions to protect my property, once the deforestation was complete which took the whole day, the organized all the logs for us and we had them cut the logs in smaller pieces. The price was competitive and the work was well done.
