Why should you hire a professional for tree care?
So you're thinking of hiring an arborist
If you're reading this, then you probably have some tree care that needs to be addressed. You might just be doing routine maintenance or it could be something more serious like a storm damage issue. Either way, it's important to know the right steps to take when maintaining your landscape and trees for safety reasons as well as aesthetic purposes. One of the most common mistakes people make is trying to cut down branches or trim trees on their own without the proper training and equipment necessary. It's so easy for an accident to happen if you don't know what you are doing! That's why we recommend hiring a professional arborist instead of taking matters into your own hands.
Ensuring tree health
A skilful art, pruning a tree takes time and careful planning. Just like visiting the hairdresser's chair, you want to have your hair trimmed correctly on first visit. Arborists are experts in different species so they can predict growth patterns and decide which branches to trim off before trees become too tall or wide.
Increased curb appeal and property value
What if we told you that landscaping services could save you both time and money in the long run? Professional landscaping services also benefit businesses and home owners by making them stand out from their competitors and adding value when potential customers visit their stores or home opens.

Ensure the right trees are chosen for your property
Planting trees is a difficult task, even for experienced gardeners. It requires knowledge of the local climate and soil conditions in order to determine which species will thrive in that environment.
A professional arborist can help you decide on the best tree for your property, whether it be an oak or maple, red or white pine. Arborists are certified so you know you're dealing with professionals who have passed rigorous examinations before being allowed to practice their trade.
When you call an arborist they’ll send an expert out to your property at no charge so they can examine your land and recommend what type of tree would be best suited there based on its location, slope aspect etc...
What to ask your arborist.
1: The most important thing to do before hiring an arborist is making sure they are insured and bonded. It’s best if you ask the company for proof of insurance such as a copy of their certificate or license with all relevant information, like phone number etc., so that in case something happens during work on your property, there won't be any issues.
2: check whether your city requires a permit for tree service work on private property; this may be an additional cost that isn't included in our estimate - but can save you from fines later if there are any violations against dangerous trees around power lines etc..
3: Also ask potential contractors for references and get at least three estimates to ensure they're competitively priced while also being well-qualified enough to do quality work safely.
4: One of the most important things to ask is if they are following Australian standards. This ensures that any work done will be up-to-par and not harmful for your tree's well being, as some practices can cause damage instead of helping it grow stronger.
When you should absolutely hire a professional arborist.
Working near power lines.
People often assume that if they accidentally hit a power line, the black coating on it will protect them. This is not true as this only protects current travelling through the wire itself. The more likely outcome of being electrocuted by these high voltage lines are far worse than just knocking out some power in your neighbourhood - you could die! It’s best to assume all wires are live and treat them with respect.
Tree branches can damage power lines and cause electric shocks or even fires when they come into contact with each other. When we cut trees we always make sure there’s no chance for any branches to touch electrical wires so we can avoid any accidents like this from happening
At RJS Tree Services, our arborists have years of experience working safely around these sensitive areas, making sure that everything is done correctly and professionally.
When you don’t have the proper equipment
Tree removal is not something you should try at home. Not only do homeowners risk hurting themselves, but they also expose their property to unnecessary damage and violations of the law if done improperly. Australian standards require tree professionals (such as arborists) wear protective head-to-toe gear while performing a job like this; additionally training in using equipment such as saws, ropes, cranes & wood chippers are necessary for proper execution .
OH&S requirements aren't just about protecting workers' safety on site during professional jobs – there's another layer of protection that ensures your work won’t cause unintentional harm beyond what
Dead or decaying wood
If you think your tree is starting to decay, it's important that you don't leave the problem until it becomes more severe. This can be done by finding a professional who will have experience in removing decayed trees so everything goes smoothly and safely for everyone involved. There are many reasons why deadwood needs to be removed from trees, one of them being nature’s way of recycling nutrients back into the soil which means there won’t be any issues with new growth or potential disease problems down the line if this process isn’t completed successfully first time around!
Tree removal is a dangerous and difficult task. It’s best left to the professionals.
Homeowners who try to remove trees themselves can cause more damage than good, especially if they don’t know what they are doing. They may even injure themselves or others in the process of trying to get rid of that tree.
RJS Tree Services has been performing tree removal Mandurah for homeowners across the area for years and we always do our job safely and efficiently, whether it be a small branch or an entire tree with roots up to 10 feet deep! We use only top-of-the-line equipment and all work is done by hand; no chainsaws here! Our experienced team will make sure your yard looks great when we leave…and you won’t have any risk of injury either!
