When the job involves power lines, roads, or structures, you need safety crew on site. EstimatorPRO is the only tree service estimating software built by people who have actually worked near power lines.
The Hazard Crew tab on any estimate lets you add the safety personnel a job requires: flaggers, spotters, traffic control, utility line watch, or any other safety role. Enter the number of people, the hours they'll be on site, and the hourly rate. The total calculates automatically and adds to the estimate.
Every other tree service software treats a job as just trees and equipment. Real tree work near power lines, over roads, or adjacent to structures requires dedicated safety personnel who do nothing but maintain the safety perimeter. That crew costs money. It needs to be in the estimate. If it's not, you absorb the cost or you skip the safety crew — neither is acceptable.
EstimatorPRO was built by Winston Marsden, who spent years as a climber and bucket truck operator working near power lines, and Payton Paule, a lineman for an electrical company. They built the Hazard Crew tab because they knew what was missing from every other tool on the market.
Every hazard you mark on the Property Map — power lines, structures, fences, kennels — flows into the estimate's Hazard tab and the Safety JHA automatically. When you walk the property and mark a power line running over the drop zone, that shows up as a flagged hazard in your estimate before you've typed a word.
Before any hazardous job, open the Safety JHA from the Property Map or the main navigation. The mapped hazards pre-fill the JHA checklist. Power lines already checked. Structures already noted. The crew reviews, adds anything you missed, and signs. The signed JHA is saved with the client record. That's your documentation if anything ever goes wrong.
