Greg · Answer

Tree surgeons should be qualified for the work they are proposing to do. This would include certificates of competency in use of chainsaws on the ground,  using chainsaws from a rope and harness, tree climbing, aerial rescue, aerial rigging and dismantling to name the basics. They should also be fully insured for indemnity against damage caused by any accident
