At TreeWorks we shudder when we hear the term “tree loppers” and for good reason.
It’s a term you often hear used in the tree services industry and homeowners sometimes use the phrase when they are searching online for an arborist, but it’s crucial to understand the implications behind it and where it might lead you.
Trees can add great beauty and value to your property
Let’s address the elephant in the room – in the tree services industry, “tree lopping” can be synonymous with cowboy behaviour. At TreeWorks, we pride ourselves on a different approach. Our mission is clear: we aim for the best outcome for both the trees and for our customers.
So, why the aversion to the term “tree loppers”? It’s not just a matter of semantics; it’s about our commitment to tree health. Tree lopping, in essence, is akin to butchering trees. It involves indiscriminate cutting, often causing irreversible damage and posing significant risks to tree vitality.
Moreover, tree lopping represents a stark contradiction to established industry standards, such as the Australian Standards AS4373. These guidelines exist for a reason – to ensure responsible and sustainable tree management practices. By adhering to such standards, we prioritize the long-term well-being of your trees and the environment.
The detrimental effects of tree lopping extend beyond tree aesthetics. Lopping places immense stress on trees, triggering erratic epicormic growth and compromising structural integrity. Trees are valuable assets to your property and they deserve better treatment.
At TreeWorks, we advocate for a different approach – one grounded in science and expertise. Our team comprises highly qualified professionals trained in the science of arboriculture. We believe each tree is unique, requiring careful assessment and tailored solutions.
When you entrust your trees to us, you can be confident they’re in capable hands. We prioritize sustainable practices, ensuring your trees thrive for years to come. Healthy trees contribute to the beauty of your landscape and to the overall value of your property.
So, if you’re in need of tree services, remember – it’s not just about finding someone to “lop” your trees. It’s about partnering with professionals who prioritize the health and longevity of your trees. Choose TreeWorks for expertise you can trust and outcomes you’ll love.
