Should You Use A Professional Tree Lopper To Manage The Trees On Your Property?


There is no doubt about it, established trees on a property add so much aesthetic value. 

They can add dollar value to your property too. 

So, it is in our best interest to care for and manage the trees that share our space. 

On the flip side, there are potential dangers that trees pose if they are not managed effectively. Potential examples of this are if a tree is growing too close to a building. 

Small-scale tree jobs around the property are rewarding and fun projects for the weekend. However, if you have identified a tree that has to be removed from your property, it may be time to call in the experts. 

The main reasons for this are discussed below: 

Many Australian Home Insurance Companies Do Not Cover Damages From Tree Work 

In the fine print of your Home Insurance Product Disclosure Statement, you will find in the tiny print that a lot of insurance companies don't cover accidents and damage from DIY tree work. 

That means that if you were to cut down a tree and it falls on your home (or your neighbours) you may not be covered. 

Licenced and Insured Tree Removal Companies have $20 Million Public Liability insurance to cover such events. 

Tree Work Can Be Dangerous 

Let's face it, your normal weekend warrior probably isn't up to the task of climbing a tree to remove branches growing at height. Same story for felling a tree so that it avoids buildings, cars and other valuables. 

Tree removal experts have the right training and equipment to ensure they can complete jobs efficiently, safely and without damage. 

The most experienced arborists are also able to identify and manage potential hazards such as rot, disease or hollows that may compromise the integrity of a tree - this may impact the strategy for working on the tree.

Why take the risk? Get a professional tree lopping company in a draw from their years of experience and specialised equipment. Which brings me to my next point; 

Tree Lopping Takes Specialised Equipment 

When you hire a Professional Arborist they can provide specialised equipment. This specialised equipment can consist of large wood chippers, chainsaws and machines. 

The upfront costs of this equipment far exceed the fee for hiring an Arborist to complete the work. 

Sub Par Tree Lopping Can Be Detrimental To The Health Of Trees 

Trained Arborists have the specific knowledge and the ability to trim and thin trees so that the remaining parts can flourish. 

Amateur tree enthusiasts may not understand the ramifications of too much trimming or cutting in the wrong areas. This can result in a tree's demise if done without appropriate care. 

Arborists Can Advise On Permits From Local Councils 

A great local Arborist will be able to advise you whether council permission is required before undertaking tree work on your property. Many councils around Australia have different rules and regulations when it comes to trimming and removing trees. 

Most councils have great resources online these days that can be referenced. An example of this is the Blacktown City Council website here

In Conclusion, Tree Work is physically exhausting and high-risk work and best left to the professionals. 

Get the experts in for those medium to large-scale tree projects. When it's done well you will be left with a great-looking property and all 10 fingers and toes!
