In many of Houston’s older neighborhoods, tree pruning can often become much more difficult because of the close proximity of utility poles and power lines. Unfortunately, some amateur tree pruners attempt to perform this type of dangerous tree pruning without the proper training or OSHA credentials to ensure total worksite and worker safety. Unsafe tree pruning near utility lines can lead to electrocution for the worker, and can lead to tree fires or even property damage.
