Tree work next to a power line is one of the most dangerous jobs in this trade, and it's not something a general tree crew should improvise.
Our team carries Utility and Powerline Clearance Certification alongside a Certified Lineman on staff, which means the crew understands line clearance distances, de-energization protocols, and how a limb or trunk can behave once it's under tension near live equipment.
Most tree companies simply won't take on a job this close to live equipment, and for good reason. That training changes how a job gets planned from the start, not just how it's executed. It affects rigging, drop zones, and when a utility needs to be looped in before a single cut is made, details that a crew without this training might not think to check.
If a tree on your property is anywhere near a power line, that's exactly the kind of job this credential exists for.

Authentic job photo preferred: crew working near overhead lines with proper equipment visible, or a wide shot showing safe clearance distance being maintained. Real work-site photos carry more credibility than generic utility stock images.
