When Tree Removal is Necessary
Certified Arborists Provide Expert Guidance
While our goal is to preserve trees whenever possible, there are situations where removal is the safest and most responsible option. Some signs that a tree may need to be removed include:
Extensive storm damage
Advanced decay or disease
Structural instability
Interference with power lines or structures
Overcrowding that threatens the health of nearby trees
If you're unsure whether a tree should be cut down, our certified arborists can provide a professional assessment and recommendation. In some cases, pruning or tree health care treatments may be viable alternatives to removal.
