Why hire a Certified Contract Climber

A contract climber is a skilled tree professional who works with companies on a temporary or regular basis usually as an Independent Contractor. They may be hired as a subcontractor or part-time employee.

Responsibilities include climbing trees to perform maintenance and care tasks, Trimming and pruning trees, Removing and lowering trees, and Operating chainsaws.

  • Specialist: As specialists, Contract climbers often have more advanced training and experience and bring their own specialized equipment to handle almost any tree situation in an efficient manner
  • Controlled Cost: Contract climbers usually bid a “fix cost“ for the job. This puts the financial risk on them if the job ends up more involved then expected
  • Frees up your man power: Contract climbers allow your crews to focus on the rest of the project to finish the job on schedule.
  • Liability: Contract climbers can provide their own insurance (liability and workman’s comp).
