Why Pole Pruners Are Essential for Garden Care
A tree pruner pole gives you the reach and control to cut safely from the ground without ladders. These tools are designed to extend up to 4 metres (13 ft) or more, making them perfect for tackling high branches, shaping hedges, and improving the health of your trees.
The right pole saw pruner not only improves the appearance of a garden but also helps maintain tree safety by removing dead or weak limbs before they become hazardous. With an extendable pole saw or long reach tree pruner, you can increase efficiency while reducing the risks associated with working at height.
For smaller gardens, cordless models provide convenience and quiet performance, while petrol-powered long pole saws are a favourite amongst professionals handling dense or heavy growth.
Cordless Pole Pruners – Convenience Meets Cutting Power
Cordless tools have transformed the way gardeners work. A cordless telescopic pole saw gives you complete freedom of movement without worrying about extension leads or power sockets. Powered by advanced lithium-ion batteries, these machines combine low noise, long runtimes, and reliable cutting performance.
At Ron Smith & Co, we only sell the best pole trimmer cordless models, including STIHL pole saws and Husqvarna’s battery-powered pruners, both known for their cutting-edge technology and ergonomics. They are ideal for regular use and have the added benefit of requiring minimal maintenance.
Key benefits of our cordless extendable tree pruners include:
- Freedom of movement – no cables to restrict you.
- Lightweight designs – reducing strain during longer jobs.
- Quiet operation – perfect for residential areas.
- Eco-friendly performance – with zero direct emissions.
If you’re searching online for a tree pruner near me that balances ease of use with performance, our cordless models provide you with some excellent options.
Petrol Pole Pruners – Built for Professionals
When power and endurance matter most, a petrol pole pruner chainsaw is hard to beat. These machines are equipped with robust engines capable of tackling thick, stubborn branches with ease. Designed for arborists, landscapers, and estate managers, they are built to withstand daily professional use.
Whether you favour Husqvarna pole saws, STIHL pruners, or models by ECHO and Mitox, all of our petrol pole pruners offer excellent ergonomics, reduced vibration levels, and exceptional reliability. With these petrol tools, you’ll enjoy:
- Unrivalled cutting power – ideal for thicker branches.
- Extended reach – with telescopic designs reaching several metres.
- Stamina for demanding jobs – no waiting for batteries to recharge.
- Durability – engineered for commercial tree care.
Whether you’re shaping a hedgerow or removing large limbs from a tree, petrol pruners are usually the best long reach saws for demanding professional jobs.
Choosing Between Cordless and Petrol Extendable Pruning Saws
Deciding between a cordless or petrol model depends on your specific needs:
For small to medium gardens, a cordless extendable tree saw offers greater convenience and ease of use.
For large estates or professional work, a petrol power pruner delivers the raw strength needed for heavy-duty pruning.
If you’re tackling a variety of tasks, you may even want both—a cordless pruner for lighter, everyday jobs and a petrol model for tougher cutting. Whichever long tree pruner you choose, you can be confident that our superb range of pole pruners has got you covered.

FAQs
What’s the difference between a telescopic pruner and a fixed pole saw?
A telescopic pruner can extend to different lengths, giving you more flexibility for high or low branches. A fixed pole saw has a set length, which may be lighter and more stable but offers less versatility.
Can I use a pole pruner to cut very thick branches?
Yes, but it depends on the model. Generally speaking, a petrol pole pruner chainsaw can cut through thicker branches than a cordless pole saw, but always check the manufacturer’s guidance notes for the tool’s exact capabilities.
Are pole pruners suitable for beginners?
Absolutely. Most cordless options are lightweight, easy to handle, and come with built-in safety features. Beginners often find a long reach tree pruner with telescopic adjustment particularly user friendly.
Do I need to sharpen the chain on a pole saw?
Yes, just like a standard chainsaw, the cutting chain will need regular sharpening. This helps maintain cutting efficiency and ensures a clean cut, which is also better for tree health.
Where can I buy replacement parts for my pruner?
At Ron Smith & Co, we supply chains, bars, and oils for STIHL pole pruners, as well as for other brands. Keeping spare parts on hand ensures your tool is always ready for the next job.
