When is tree removal necessary?
When is tree removal necessary? Trees are like stocks–you don’t want to invest money in a bad stock, and you don’t want invest money in a bad tree. It might be a tough decision to let a tree go, but you must look at the big picture. Think ahead a few years about the tree and your property and consider the reasons we outline below.
Removing a dead or dying tree is advisable as soon as you notice it. The longer you wait, the more decay has set in, and the more dangerous the tree is for a tree professional to work in AND for you to have standing on your property. This also translates into more dollars the longer you wait.
Obvious reasons to remove a tree
- The tree is dead
- Declining health—the branches or top of tree is dying back, there are large dead branches, or you notice there is decay on the main trunk.
- Major storm damage—a significant portion of the tree is damaged and the tree is beyond repair.
- Tree is too close to the house or other buildings, utility lines, play structures, pool, etc..
- The tree is leaning towards an obvious target, such as your house, your driveway where you park, your patio, pool, the general area where your children play, etc…
- It’s a nuisance—dropping seeds, sap, branches, and blocking views and light and inhibiting the lawn you want to grow. Roots also may interfere with the lawn you want to grow.Roots pose a serious threat to foundations, driveways, sidewalk and underground utilities

Major landscape renovations which would either damage trees, or because the tree has worn out it’s welcome and it’s time for a more appropriate planting.
