After reading a recent blog post, it has really got myself thinking of the importance of hiring a professional tree service versus doing the work yourself. Many “do-it-yourself” homeowners take pride in tackling home projects by themselves. When working by yourself, the reality is that costs can still run high between damaged property, ruined landscape and potential hospital bills. We just want to inform anyone in this boat about the top reasons to leave your tree work to the professionals.
- Limited Experience and Skill: Proper and safe tree work knowledge truly takes years of experience to confidently understand and acquire. Knowing how a falling tree will come down in a controlled and safe manner is not as easy as cutting a chainsaw through the base of the trunk.
- Lack of Awareness: It is important to understand the situation in which you are working in. Many trees grow in the area of live electrical wires. These trees if not properly handled can lead to serious injury or even death. Kelley Tree service has the knowledge and awareness that allows us to safely remove any risk while working with the wires.
- Unequipped: No matter what size job you are doing, there is a very good chance you are not using proper tools. We often hear stories about misused ladders, and chain saws, and residents trying to use a piece of equipment that wasn’t made for its use.

The time, effort, personal damage possibilities, home danger, and landscape danger is all just not worth it. For further information on professional tree work, please feel free to contact Kelley Tree Service. We are happy to talk over the phone at 617-953-5357 or feel free to fill out a contact form and we will respond in a timely manner.
