What we settle before cutting
Before cutting, we plan the work, choose the felling direction and establish the drop zones. We assign crew roles and agree on communication signals so everyone knows their part in the job.
Our equipment includes hard hats and work-positioning lanyards.
When overhead lines limit the work
We treat overhead power lines as energized and maintain the required clearance. If we cannot do the work safely at that distance, we contact the utility rather than proceed with the cutting.
A tree near a power line may require utility involvement before our work can go ahead. We do not reduce the clearance to get the job done sooner.

Straight Answers to Common Questions
Do I need a permit to cut down a tree on my property?
Permit rules vary by city and tree species or size. Many municipalities require permits for trees above a certain diameter or protected species. Check local ordinances before work begins to avoid fines; the tree service can often advise on requirements.
What is the best month to trim a tree?
Pruning costs range from $75 to $1,500. Late dormant season, just before spring growth, is often ideal because wounds close quickly and pests are inactive. Avoid trimming during leaf-out or fall color change when the tree is stressed.
What is the 5-15-90 rule for tree felling?
The rule is a safety guideline: maintain a 5-foot exclusion zone around the sawyer, keep bystanders at least 15 feet away from the tree, and clear a 90-degree escape path opposite the planned fall direction. Proper planning reduces struck-by injuries.
