Utility Line Clearing in Lethbridge
At Hi Rigger Tree Service, our utility line clearing keeps people safe and electricity reliable. We use directional pruning and targeted removals to maintain safe clearance around power lines while preserving tree health wherever possible. Our ISA certified arborists follow recognized utility pruning practices and coordinate closely with the local utility before any work near energized equipment.
Why You Might Need Utility Line Clearing
Our Professional Line Clearing Process
-
Site assessment
We inspect species, growth rates, defects, and proximity to conductors and equipment, then set goals based on utility standards and your property needs.
-
Safety setup
We secure the work zone, confirm approach distances, and stage insulated tools, aerial devices, and rigging to protect people, property, and infrastructure.
-
Directional pruning around conductors
Using utility pruning best practices, we remove only the parts growing toward lines and guide future growth away from conductors to keep trees healthy and clear.
-
Targeted removals when required
If a tree is structurally unsound or cannot meet clearance standards, we perform a controlled removal in sections to eliminate the hazard with minimal impact.
-
Brush management and cleanup
We chip and haul debris or leave mulch on site at your request. On larger corridors we can support integrated vegetation management plans that may include mowing, selective re growth control, and compatible planting.
