If you have ever attempted a DIY tree maintenance project, you know the inconveniences and risks of lacking appropriate tools for the job. Tree maintenance requires specific industry equipment for enhanced efficiency and safety, and that's where Sesmas Tree Service comes in as your go-to tree care company. Our professional team of arborists is well-trained and equipped to handle anything thrown at them when it comes to working in nature. Whether you need help maintaining the specimen from various trees, cleaning up after a weather disaster, or safely removing trees interfering with your daily activities, we've covered you.

An Inside Look at an Arborist’s Toolbox

While most people barely think about what the arborist intends to do, others wish to know how these tasks will be accomplished and the tools needed. Professional tree service providers tend to use similar tools for various jobs, and we can help you understand how an arborist does their job. Here are some of the tools inside the toolbox of a tree care expert.

Mechanical Tools

The primary goal of using mechanical tools is to enhance the efficiency of any job, allowing an arborist to focus on vital factors like precision and safety. Some mechanical tools that allow tree service experts to do their jobs easily include lifts, bucket trucks, shredders, and stump grinders. Most of these tools are not easily accessible to homeowners and cost a lot of money if you want to rent or purchase them for your next DIY project. The easiest solution is to hire a tree care company and enjoy professional services at a reasonable price so that you don't end up with expensive tools collecting dust in the shed.

Safety Devices

Anyone with little can conduct tree care practices with zero training, but what about protecting the structures and trees on your property? Whether it's pruning or cutting down trees, an arborist can guarantee the safety of your property and those around you without compromising quality. Some of the safety devices used include safety glasses, climbing rope, gloves with extra grip, rigging, climbing spurs, and hard hats. Hiring a professional tree service goes a long way in ensuring your lawn is in tip-top condition, with minimum to zero damage or injuries.

Tree Trimming and Pruning

A vital part of any tree service program involves trimming and pruning. These practices enhance the safety of your property, the aesthetics, and the health of your lawn. We can assess the type of trees and shrubs in your lawn to determine the appropriate time to conduct these practices and to maintain a lush lawn all year. Some of the tools used include hand pruners, hedge trimmers, hand saws, and loppers.

Regardless of all the tools at their disposal, our arborists have sufficient training to conduct any maintenance practice. If you are looking for a reliable tree service company, it is crucial to check the credentials of the arborists. Call us today at Sesmas Tree Service and schedule an appointment with our team for quality services at a pocket-friendly price.

Customer Reviews

3 large Leyland Cypress trees removed near front of our home. Excellent service, professional crew, very competitive pricing for superior work! Rolando provided the initial estimate and the  follow up and was the best in terms of customer relations. I'd both use this company again AND highly recommend them.

Susan Hitchcock

This is the 2nd time we have used Sesmas Tree Service. They are a wonderful company to deal with. They were on time, professional, and very thorough. They cleaned up prior to leaving and went out of their way to protect our plants and landscaping. And they kept to their proposal with no hidden cost or add ons. Definitely a five star experience!

Gene McFadden

Wow!  I deal with tree services in my professional work and I can honestly say Sesmas is by far the most professional, best equipped, efficient, safety conscious, and communicative service I've ever encountered.  Their price was very reasonable and they even went so far as to include additional work without increasing the price.  Call them!  Now! They are very quick to respond.

Scott McLendon

We've used Sesmas several times and have always received excellent service.  Estimates are quick and easy and the crew is efficient and leaves the property clean of debris.  Recently we needed a tree removed next to a heavily landscaped area.  Sebastian went over everything with me in detail and listened to my concerns.  The crew did an excellent job in removing the tree with minimal disturbance to the surrounding area.  We are pleased and will consider them again in the future for pruning and tree removal.

Tonia Griswold

Sesmas Tree Service was amazing! I had two dead trees cut and a lot of trees that were already down on my property removed. Sebastian came out and sent the quote in writing within 24 hours. We were in the process of scheduling the service when a slot opened up sooner snd I was able to go ahead and get the work done. Everything was explained ahead of time for what to expect. The crew was very efficient and professional.  All of the work and cleanup was done in one day. I would recommend Sesmas for your tree cutting/cleanup needs.

LaDora Woods

I hired Sesmas to cut down a very tricky tree that was hanging over my house as well as a few large limbs. They did a great job and had the machinery to get the job done right.

Perry Hartman

Great experience with Sesmas. They were meticulous with my tree removal, safe and efficient. David’s communication throughout the process was much appreciated. Highly recommend!

Lindsay Ellenburg

Great experience with Sesmas Tree Service. The arborist who came out was a Board Certified Master Arborist, and you could immediately tell he knew his stuff. He took the time to explain what needed to be done, gave us clear options, and helped us feel confident from start to finish. The whole process was easy and professional. We’ll definitely use them again.
