Many of us do not possess the knowledge and skill to deal with a tree that is unsightly, disease-stricken, damaged, structurally-unsound, non-productive, or worse, dead. It is also a bad idea to perform tree related tasks yourself, especially on trees that are located close to electrical wires or those that require climbing of any kind. Cutting down a tree is also a task best left to experienced and well-equipped professionals.
Fortunately, there are many tree companies in Pittsburgh. It is important that you choose the right firm because inappropriate care can injure or kill a tree. Hiring the right people to perform the job is still vital even if the tree is dead and you need it removed. You want the tree company to be able to do this task without damage to your property or injury to other individuals.
Choosing a tree company
You should find a company that works as per industry standards. To provide an example, topping and lion’s-tailing are standard yet undesirable pruning practices. They are typically presented as a way to spend less since much more of the tree is removed at one time, however, these techniques can involve more pricey restoration work later on. The best way to make sure you will be using a company that observes industry standards is to choose one that is a member of a trade association in your area.

Tree care is a dangerous occupation. A worker getting injured on your property is always a possibility so it is crucial that you protect yourself from being held liable for such accidents. You can do this by working with a company that is adequately insured. A company may look professional and be strongly recommended by others, but do not have enough - or in certain cases any - insurance. The firm must be able to show you pertinent insurance certificates. The insurance need to cover worker’s compensation, property damage and liability.
Obtain recommendations from neighbors, peers, and workmates who have hired professional tree care services before. Ask for estimates and references from the tree companies on your shortlist. Each estimate needs to include comprehensive work specifications so you know exactly how much work the company offers to do and how much it will cost you. Although it is convenient to shop for these services on the internet or by phone, if you can, arrange a face-to-face meeting with the company’s representative. Don’t disregard your gut feelings when talking with these tree care companies. If you don’t feel that you can have a good rapport with a particular company, pick another provider.
