The cheapest Austin tree service? Is that what you’re searching for today?
Some People Say We’re the Cheapest Tree Service In Austin
To be honest, Chico’s, according to many of our reviews, is actually the cheapest Austin tree service. So we don’t feel threatened by this query. However, we do caution you about being cheap with your trees… and the people who trim them.
Why Is The Cheapest Sometimes Is the Worst
In these troubled times, we think economy is smart. But there’s also penny-wise-pound-foolish. Here are a few good reasons NOT to make the price tag your primary criterion.
- Trees take a long time to grow.
- Some tree services offer the lowest bids because they’re cutting corners on quality and safety.
- Some tree services are really just a guy with a chainsaw and a truck.
- Tree trimming is a dangerous job that requires training and experience.
- Bad trimming work can expose your trees to disease and infection.
- A clumsy tree trimming can damage your lawn, home, and/or fence and expose you to physical and legal risk if you harm your neighbors or your utility lines.
- Large limbs must be carefully controlled when they are cut. Something as innocuous as a little unseen wear on a securing line could deposit 300 pounds of tree into your living room with no warning.
- The cheapest tree trimming service in town is probably not insured and bonded against accidents. That means if things go off the rails, you’re basically dealing with the legal equivalent of getting t-boned by an uninsured driver.
If We’re The Austin Cheapest Tree Service, Why Are We Quibbling?
We’re often the cheapest. We believe we deliver the best value in Austin for tree trimming. But we know there’s sometimes someone out there who will do it cheaper. And we want you to know that you should use your common sense before accepting a bid that’s oddly low. What that bidder isn’t telling you could be their secret: that they’re willing to endanger you, your family, your home, your trees, or even themselves to bring in a few bucks.
Try this exercise. Close your eyes and visualize your house. Now imagine a giant ripping all the limbs off the most visible tree and turning it into a giant popsicle stick. Bad giant! What does that do for your pride of place? Would you feel differently about your home in this configuration? Your trees aren’t just window dressing. They’re the core of your curb appeal and they connect your home to the land on which it sits.
