Tree Removal • Pruning • Viewscaping • Woodscaping
If a company has employees in NY State, it is illegal to do tree work without having workers’ compensation insurance. If you hire a service that doesn't carry the correct insurance, you, the homeowner, will be liable if something happens to your property or to their employees.
Asking your tree service to send proof of workers’ compensation insurance takes one second and is free. Battling your insurance company because you hired a company working illegally without workers’ compensation insurance could take years and cost you, the homeowner, the price of any damage or injuries.
Don't assume a company is fully insured - get proof! A business card and an ad can say anything. A reputable, legal tree service will be happy to have their insurance companies email you their proof of general liability and workers’ compensation insurance.
DON'T TAKE CHANCES.
Make sure the company you are hiring has been doing business for several years. Tree work is dangerous and takes years to learn.
Check our website for more information.
We follow all industry safety standards and techniques, and have the newest equipment to keep your lawn and property looking like we were never there.
