At Jim’s Tree we do high quality work at the best prices in Adelaide
If you want to get rid of a tree on your private property in Adelaide, then you are going to be presented with a choice of tree removal services. Deciding between these options can be difficult. Your mind might tell you to go with the cheapest quote, but your gut might urge you to be cautious of discount removal services.
Removing a tree on your property is hazardous, time-consuming work that requires a team of people with the right equipment, machinery and training. Cutting corners on a tree removal means increasing the risk of an accident while decreasing the quality of the work. Upfront savings on the initial cost of a tree removal are quickly overshadowed by expenses down the line if the job was not done properly. Repairing damaged property, medical bills, legal bills or environmental recovery are all potential costs of a poorly done tree removal.
In this guide to cheap tree removal Adelaide, we run you through all of the essential things to look for in a tree service. We help you get the best price on your tree removal quote by ensuring you don’t pay a fortune down the line. The cheapest tree removal is the one that is done right the first time without extra unforeseen expenses.
Safe yet Cheap Tree removal is our #1 Objective
First and foremost when removing a tree and when choosing a tree service is safety. Skipping safety measures significantly increases the risk of an accident occurring, which will ultimately cost you more money and grief in the long run. The process of removing a tree is a dangerous one that involves:
- Climbing a dying or damaged tree
- Operating dangerous machinery while in the tree
- Lopping off heavy branches
- Lowering branches on a rope to a ground crew
- Bringing down the tree in a limited space
- Cutting it into moveable sections
- Removing the stump
- Transporting it all from the property
Tree companies that offer a low-ball quote that is well below the market rate are often doing so by saving money on their safety protocols. In the end it is you that pays for these risks.
The best decision when it comes to choosing a tree service is to choose one that prioritises safety protocols, invests in safety training, maintains quality machinery and has an impeccable safety record.
Remember
- Choose the tree service that invests in safety training and protocols
- Safety should be your number one priority
- When tree services take risks, you are incurring the risk as well
Second to None Service
Obligation-free quotes
To provide a great service, we start by offering a free quote for every job, so you can enquire without commitments or obligations. The level of risk involved, the use of dangerous machinery, and the technical skills required means that tree services aren’t always cheap. To this end, we believe in transparency when it comes to the cost of a job and the prices we charge. That’s why we provide up front quotes for every job and have no hidden fees.
Comprehensive Insurance Coverage
No one likes to take on unnecessary risk. While the job of climbing up a dying tree and lopping from the top down is unquestionably dangerous, hiring someone to do it doesn’t have to be.
We take the financial risk out of tree removal in Melbourne by protecting our customers with comprehensive insurance coverage. We spare no expense in protecting every single job we do with an industry-leading $10 million insurance policy.
Tree Removal Permit Assistance
Whether you need full tree or just stump removal, you may require permission from your local council prior to the works. Our local crews are familiar with the council process and are happy to share any experience or knowledge they may have that could assist you with your application. We also have a collection of resources on local council regulation that can help you to navigate your local tree protection laws and permit application process.
Insurance is still a non-negotiable
Caring about insurance means caring about the safety of your finances. You should never accept a tree service to work on your property if they are uninsured or only have a partial insurance coverage. In the unfortunate event of an accident, you will be out of pocket for any costs of damages or injuries that occur on your property. Even when all of the safety protocols are followed, accidents can happen. The small amount of money saved upfront for not investing in insurance is not worth the risk of huge financial repercussions if something were to go wrong.
Be cautious of tree companies that have complicated insurance policies with partial protections. There should be no ambiguity when it comes to financial protection. Choose the service that provides industry leading comprehensive insurance coverage on every job they do.
Remember
- Insurance is financial protection
- Uninsured services put the risk on you
- Choose a company with comprehensive insurance protection
Legals and following regulations
Removing a tree on private property in Adelaide requires a permit from the local council. The applications for these permits often require a qualified arborist’s input and can take some time for the council to approve. Violation of these local tree protection laws can result in heavy fines and the potential for further legal action.
Cut-rate tree removal services are more concerned with finishing the job quickly than with following the law. Many of these services may not have a qualified arborist to complete the permit application and they may be unfamiliar with the local council’s regulations. Instead, these services will try to carry out tree removals without a permit. Be cautious of any tree company that tries to evade local laws, as you are the one who will be held responsible.
On the flipside, choosing a company that is familiar with the local council can speed up the application process. Having the right qualifications and experience with the system can be a big help in getting your removal permit approved.
Remember:
- Each council has local tree protection laws
- Failure to abide by these is illegal
- Choose a company that is familiar with local laws
Quality & Experience
Quality is an obvious one, but it can often be overlooked in the pursuit of the lowest price. Choosing the cheapest quote will generally result in the lowest quality job – and this can require spending more money to fix the initial mistakes. The company that provides the lowest quote will try to fit more jobs into its day, and as a result will not be able to give your job the proper time and attention that it requires. Rushing a job is a recipe for low quality outcomes and potential accidents. These outcomes range from damage to your garden and failure to completely extract the tree, to fallen branches, damaged property and injuries.
High quality work, on the other hand, will result in better outcomes for your home and garden, plus less costs incurred down the line. The cheaper option therefore becomes the highest quality work as it will have the least additional costs and potential unexpected expenses. When choosing a tree service, choose the one that comes highly recommended and provides the highest quality work.
Remember:
- Low quality work results in extra costs
- Low quality work is more dangerous and risky
- High quality work has better outcomes and less unforeseen expenses
Experience the Jim’s Trees difference
DIY tree lopping is full of risks, which is why we don’t recommend taking tree care into your own hands. If anything goes wrong, it can put you in serious danger, as well as cause damage to nearby property or neighbouring trees. Special tools and equipment are needed for tree removal and other cutting services – and this is where Jim’s Trees comes in.
As professional tree loppers, we apply our expertise to ensure your property is safe, and we never cut down a tree unless it’s absolutely necessary. By taking proper care of the trees around your home, you can increase the value of your property and avoid making mistakes that could be costly in the long-run.
At Jim’s, we’re focused on providing the best customer service to every customer, and all tree loppers and arborists in our team strive for only the highest standards in their work.
Experienced Tree Professionals
Experience is the X-factor that ties all of these elements together. Choosing an experienced arborist means choosing a tree surgeon who prioritises safety, is fully insured, works within local laws and provides high quality work. An experienced arborist is worth far more than the qualifications they hold. Their experience helps them to diagnose problems and to see the best available solutions. An arborist with good experience can advise you to keep a healthy tree where a lopper would have simply cut it down. They can identify potentially dangerous trees that others may not have seen. Most importantly, an experienced arborist can work sustainably, safely and to the highest quality available. If given the option, always choose the experience of a trained arborist over the low cost of an untrained amateur.
Remember:
- Experienced arborists provide the highest quality work
- They can identify when a tree is hazardous, or when it can be saved
- An experienced arborist can solve issues that others can’t
