Bought new house last year and am currently getting ready for the burning season. The last owner let the tree out front grow up and over roof/chimney. I need to clear my chimney of branches and have got all the ones that are within reach with 30 ft ladder and 14 ft pole saw. Have a few just out of reach. Only like 2 about 3 inch in diameter. I would hate to call professional for such a small job.
I think the recommendation is to clear within 10 ft of the chimney. these are just above 10 feet over chimney I just don't feel comfortable leaving there.
So has anyone tried the High reach saws that look as if they are a length of chainsaw chain attached to 2 ropes. You use fishing line and slingshot to loop over high branch then pull rope and saw into place. Internet makes them look slick but probably junk. Just thought I would ask the knowledgeable members of this forum if you have any experience with these or any recommendations about brands or other options thanks.
