Tree Cutting Gone Bad-What Can Go Wrong?

9/25/2018

Taking down a tree is something that should be left to the tree care professionals. If the tree that you want to get rid of is small and short, you might handle it yourself.

Although, we recommend calling a business that provides tree service in Syracuse. Whether a small or big tree, safety must come first at all times. There are too many stories of
tree cutting gone bad.


It's suggested you hire a professional tree removal business to cut down a tree for you. Before doing so, you should school yourself about necessary tree cutting costs. The price to cut down a tree differs on a host of factors. You can spend as little as $100, or you could wind up spending over $2, 000 or more.

Tree cutting is best left to an arborist who has more experience. Tree cutting accidents usually occur when people attempt DIY, resulting in tree cutting gone bad.

Below are the most common tree cutting accidents.
  1. The most common tree cutting accident is being hit by a falling object, usually a limb or tree branch.
  2. Falls are the 2nd  most common tree cutting accident. The one cutting the tree falls off the roof or a ladder.
  3. Electrocution is a serious risk to anyone pruning branches near live wires. The individual could accidentally touch the wire, or a falling branch could knock the wires down, and the person could touch or step on it.
  4. If the equipment fails or malfunctions, the tree cutter could be pinned against another structure or thrown against a tree.
  5. Cuts are a common type of injury that an individual can get while cutting down a tree. The cuts are due to the inappropriate use of power cutting tools like hacksaws and chainsaws.
  6. Using heavy equipment and power tools like chippers bring the risk of amputation of body parts, such as a hand, arm, or fingers.
  7. Chips of wood and sawdust get airborne while cutting the trunk or limbs and could get in a person’s eye, cutting or scratching it.
