What is Tree Felling and when do you need it?
Tree Felling is sometimes the best solution for when a tree becomes a safety risk or negatively impacts its surroundings. Here are the most common reasons as to why homeowners and businesses choose professional tree removal services:
Dangerous Trees
If a tree is weakened by disease, storm damage, or decay, it may become unstable and pose a risk to people, buildings, or vehicles.
Overgrown or encroaching Trees
Trees growing too close to houses, driveways, power lines, or underground pipes can cause structural damage.
Clearing land for development
If you're planning a home extension, driveway, or landscaping project, tree removal may be necessary .
Preventing disease spread
Some tree diseases, such as Ash Dieback or Dutch Elm Disease, can spread quickly. Removing an affected tree can protect surrounding vegetation.
Improving tree health
In overcrowded areas, removing one tree can help other trees thrive by reducing competition for sunlight and nutrients.
