Do You Need Tree Removal?
Given enough time, a tree will begin to decay and die. Sometimes, a healthy tree can become a safety concern due to homes, buildings and other structures nearby. Here are a few reasons it could be time to think about calling a tree service in Sonoma, CA to assess whether tree removal is the right choice your property:
- Rotting Trees – A decaying tree has serious damage, whether it’s from rodents and pests, disease, age or another cause. It should be removed before it can infect surrounding trees or collapse on a nearby structure.
- Safety & Visibility – Lower limbs can be cut off in order to make the area under the tree safer or to allow for a better view.
- Root Encroachment – Tree roots extend under the ground even farther than the tree canopy. Roots wrap around water lines and push up pavement if given the chance. Cutting the tree down eventually kills these roots and prevents them from destroying nearby property.
- Nearby Trees & Plants – A tree that grows too large for its location affects the smaller trees and plants near it by taking away water and nutrients and limiting their sunlight.
- Power or Phone Lines – Tall trees interfere with electrical lines and pose a danger for falling. Sometimes the phone or electrical company may demand these trees to be removed, or you can have trees removed as a precaution.
Sonoma Tree Removal
Services
Each tree removal service in Sonoma is a little different from the others. Your licensed arborist has to consider the size of the tree, its location and what you want done with the tree once it is cut down. Sonoma tree specialists from SCO Tree Care consider every factor before determining a plan to remove the tree with one of the following services:
- Basic Tree Removal – The standard tree removal service includes cutting down the tree, disposing of the limbs and cutting the trunk into smaller sections for firewood. For an additional cost, technicians can haul the wood away instead.
- Felling Only – The most affordable tree removal service is to just cut down the tree. Technicians fell the tree safely to the ground, but it’s up to you to complete debris cleanup and cut up the limbs and trunk as necessary.
- Minimal Impact Tree Removal – If there isn’t much space to fell the tree, it’s recommended to bring it down piece by piece. This type of tree removal service is more complex, but it is the only way to protect your home, lawn and fences.
