Not all those claiming to be tree specialists<\/a> are created equal. Each company and individual arborists will come with different levels of skills, qualifications and experience. Taking the time to find the right fit can mean the difference between the seamless completion of your job, and having issues that compromise your safety or your back pocket. This makes choosing the right arborist for your job a somewhat difficult task, but a very important one.<\/p>\n

Among skilled arborists,<\/a> some companies come with a range of unique specialisations. Some are experts at working smaller, residential jobs, while others excel on large-scale commercial, government and residential projects. Some are skilled with certain services, from tree removal, to stump grinding and general tree maintenance, while others might only do minor work. Consider what skills your job requires and shop around for arborists who deliver the best services based on that specialisation.<\/p>\n

Tree removal<\/a> and tree pruning<\/a> can be dangerous, technical and highly challenging work. It comes with a risk of property damage and can even result in personal harm. Even in Australia, practitioners can have wildly different levels of qualifications when it comes to practising arboriculture. Here are some important safeguards:<\/p>\n
