Chainsaw FAQ’s

What’s the Best Chainsaw for Home Use

For most home garden maintenance, a cordless 18V or 36V battery-powered model with a 30cm (12-inch) bar is the best choice. It is lightweight, requires minimal maintenance, starts instantly, and is powerful enough for pruning branches and cutting firewood.

Which Chainsaw brand is the most reliable

Makita and Stihl are widely considered among the most reliable brands in the industry. Professional arborists favor them for their durable motors, robust safety features, and long-lasting performance in harsh outdoor conditions.

What size chainsaw is best for a homeowner

A bar length of 10 to 14 inches (25cm to 35cm) is ideal for a homeowner. This size is perfectly balanced for common residential tasks like limbing trees, clearing small fallen branches, and cutting logs for a backyard fire pit.

What is the number one selling chainsaw in the world

Stihl is generally recognized as the number one selling brand globally, particularly famous for its petrol-driven models used by forestry professionals. However, Makita dominates the professional cordless market with its highly reliable LXT and XGT battery platforms.

Is it illegal to cut trees in the summer in the UK

It is not strictly illegal to cut trees in the summer, but under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, it is an offence to intentionally damage or destroy a wild bird's nest while it is in use. Therefore, you must thoroughly check for nesting birds before felling or pruning between March and August.

Do you need a licence for a chainsaw

You do not need a licence to buy or use a chainsaw for personal use on your own property in the UK. However, if you are using one for professional work or on someone else's land, you must hold the relevant NPTC or Lantra chainsaw certificates to comply with health and safety regulations.

Are battery chainsaws better than petrol

Battery chainsaws are better for noise reduction, zero emissions, and low maintenance, making them perfect for residential areas and quick jobs. Petrol models are still preferred by full-time forestry workers who need to run machines continuously in remote areas without access to chargers.
