Although tree cutting might seem pretty clear-cut (yes, pun intended), there is a science and skill to it. Before you blindly Google “tree-cutting services near me” and choose at random, there are some things that separate us from the competition. These are just some of the reasons Absolute Trees is your clear choice for tree-cutting services in Charleston.
Experience
It isn’t enough to just get a tall ladder, a chainsaw, and some trimmers and get to it. Cutting trees takes precision, skill, knowledge, and the right equipment. Tree cutting is not for the faint of heart, and it’s not a good do-it-yourself project. Before you hire someone, make sure that they have the skill and experience to get the job done correctly and safely. Sometimes it takes trial and error to become an expert – don’t be someone’s trial or error!
Price
Although cost is an issue for most, going by cost alone is a huge mistake. Overpaying for a service does not guarantee greatness in the same way that paying for a cheap service typically gets you cheap results. You might have to weed through some service providers who are too expensive, but don’t let the cost of the project be what you base your entire decision on, or you may find out the hard way why the price was so low!
Equipment
Anyone who is a skilled tradesperson knows that there is some amount of talent and training that goes into your trade, but tools are what really dictate the final result. When you are dealing with trees that can weigh upwards of 20,000 pounds, you want to make sure that the tree service you hire has the equipment to get it done – and more importantly, that they can get it done safely. At Absolute Trees, we invest heavily in ourselves so that you can feel good about investing in our services!
Education and Training
It might not seem like tree cutting is rocket science, but there is a science to it. Before you cut a tree on a whim, you have to know how what you are doing will affect its overall health. Things like being balanced, leaving enough low-lying branches, and the timing of cutting and trimming are all issues that need to be considered for optimal results. Find a tree service that includes arborist skills so they understand the purpose of trimming and how to ensure that it is beneficial.
If it has been a while since you have had your trees cut and maintained, the new year is a perfect reminder to get on it. Before you simply Google “tree cutting services near me” and choose at will, remember that not everyone is skilled enough to cut trees perfectly and safely. At Absolute Trees, we are leaders in the Charleston tree services industry because we have all the qualities that it takes to expertly care for trees.
