At Beaver Tree Service we use a lot of specialised equipment and tools.

The most important tool our Beavers use is knowledge. The knowledge of how to prune your trees so they look good and stay healthy, the knowledge of which tools to use for which job and the knowledge of how to stay safe while high up in the canopy wielding a chainsaw.

So the next time you’re thinking of doing a bit of DIY and ‘having a go’ at trimming your trees stop and think about the equipment and knowledge needed and maybe give the professionals a call first.
