Power Line Clearance Pruning in Bakersfield and Kern County

Post Copy

Branches growing near a power line are one of the most common summer maintenance calls, and also one of the most dangerous jobs a homeowner can try to handle alone.

A limb doesn't have to touch a live wire to conduct electricity, sap and wet bark can carry current, and a ladder near an energized line turns a routine trim into a serious hazard.

Trained crews know how to assess clearance distances and work safely around energized lines, which separates a professional pruning job from a dangerous situation.
