When Should You Remove a Tree?

Deciding to remove a tree is not always easy, but certain situations make removal necessary for safety and property protection. Our arborists can help you evaluate whether tree removal is the right choice for your situation.

Common Reasons for Tree Removal:

• Disease or Decay: Trees with significant rot, fungal infections, or disease that cannot be treated pose safety risks and should be removed before they become hazardous.
• Storm Damage: Trees damaged by high winds, lightning strikes, or heavy snow may be structurally compromised and require removal to prevent further damage or injury.
• Hazardous Location: Trees growing too close to structures, power lines, or in areas where they could cause damage if they fall need professional removal.
• Dead or Dying: Dead trees become brittle and unpredictable, posing significant safety hazards to people and property.
• Construction or Landscaping: Property development, home additions, or landscape redesigns may require tree removal to accommodate new structures or designs.
• Root Damage: Trees with root systems damaging foundations, sidewalks, driveways, or underground utilities may need to be removed.
• Overcrowding: Trees planted too close together compete for resources and may need selective removal to ensure healthy growth of remaining trees.

Our team provides honest assessments and will explore alternatives to removal when possible, such as our professional tree trimming and pruning services. However, when removal is necessary, we execute the job safely and efficiently.
