Tree Evaluation
If you find yourself with a tree you are concerned about and aren’t sure what the next steps are, give us a call. We will look at the tree in question and evaluate its health. We will assess whether it is in good health, can be saved if it’s in poor condition, or if it needs to be removed for safety reasons. Even if you think a tree is healthy, it might be a good idea to have one of our tree care professionals evaluate it for any damaged areas. Sometimes a tree itself will be fine, but the roots may be affected by a foundation or sidewalk. We can evaluate this and possibly find a solution that would save the tree while mitigating the damage to areas of concern.
The decision to cut down a tree isn’t always an easy one, but there are times when tree removal is truly the best option. If you’re experiencing any of the situations below, give us a call – we’ll let you know if the tree should be removed or whether it can possibly be saved.
Reasons to Remove a Tree
A SAFETY HAZARD
Hurricanes, floods, and lightning strikes frequently cause damage to trees creating significant safety hazards for property and people. In such cases, the tree must be removed.
TIME FOR A CHANGE
Trees may outgrow their space, create too much shade, drop leaves in your pool, or have too many roots, affecting your landscape.
DEAD OR DYING
A dead or dying tree presents a hazardous situation as it continues to deteriorate, whether due to pests, diseases, environmental factors, or simply old age.
BUILDING
Nearby construction can significantly harm or even kill a tree if it is not properly protected. Sometimes, a tree may need to be removed to accommodate new landscaping, a patio, outdoor kitchen, swimming pool, etc.
BLOCKING ACCESS
Sometimes, trees can grow so large, or in unexpected directions, that they block access to roads, sidewalks, driveways, walkways, patios, or decks. Pruning alone may not be sufficient to clear the way.
PLANTED TOO CLOSE
When trees are growing too close together, they can compete for sunlight, water, and nutrients, which can harm nearby trees. Additionally, trees near structures such as homes or buildings can potentially cause damage to roofs, siding, utility lines, vents, and air conditioning units.
Tree Removal Options
Our tree removal experts will select the most suitable method based on the tree’s condition, location, and surroundings.
CLIMB & CUT
This method of tree removal involves an experienced tree climber ascending the tree and cutting it into pieces that can be gently and securely lowered to the ground.
BUCKET TRUCK OR TRACK LIFT
Our tree removal experts will remain securely in the bucket while cutting and lowering tree pieces for trees accessible with a bucket truck or track lift.
CRANE
In some cases, a tree may be situated in a confined space, making it inaccessible by a bucket truck or too hazardous to climb. In such instances, we use a crane to reach the tree and remove the cut pieces.
