When Tree Removal is Necessary

Removing a tree is a big decision. Our team will always explore alternatives before recommending removal, but in some situations, it is the best—or only—option:

Dead or Dying Trees

A dead tree is a safety hazard and may attract pests or disease.

Diseased or Infested Trees

Some diseases spread quickly, putting nearby trees at risk.

Storm-Damaged Trees

Severe weather can compromise a tree’s structure.

Hazardous Location

Trees leaning over homes, driveways, or power lines pose a threat.

Construction or Landscaping

Trees that interfere with new projects may need to be removed.

Root System Damage

Uplifted sidewalks, driveways, or foundations often point to root problems.
