Why Remove a Tree?
Dead, Dying or Diseased Tree
If your tree is sick or dying, it might be best to have it removed before it becomes a safety hazard. In addition, an unhealthy tree is also more susceptible to insect infestations, which can further weaken it and pose health risks to your family.
If a storm or other natural disaster has damaged your tree, it might need to be removed for safety reasons. A tree with a cracked trunk or is severely leaning is more likely to fall and cause damage.
POORLY LOCATED TREES
If a tree is too close to power lines or other structures on your property, it might need to be removed. Trees close to power lines can pose a fire hazard, and those that are too close to your building or home may cause damage if they fall.
Trees can also sometimes get in the way of construction or other landscaping projects. If you’re planning on making changes to your property, removing a tree that’s in the way might be necessary.
OVERGROWN TREES
Trees that are too big for their location can pose safety hazards. They might grow into power lines or fall over and damage your property. If your tree is getting too large for its space, you might need to have it removed before it becomes a problem.
If tree roots are causing cracks in your foundation or sidewalks, they need to be removed. Not only is this a cosmetic issue, but it can also lead to more serious problems like water damage or even structural damage to your home.
