Why Remove a Tree

     There are many reasons why someone might want to remove a tree from their premises, ranging from safety precaution and risk mitigation all the way to land clearing and space freeing for new construction projects.

     Trees which are located close to inhabited structures or powerlines pose a potential risk to the buildings and the people inside of them. While a tree may appear to be healthy and strong during calm weather, the risk factors are multiplied exponentially during storm season. High wind speeds from tropical storms and hurricanes have proven their ability to topple even the strongest and healthiest of our native Florida trees.

      In cases of fungal decay or rotting wood, the risks are amplified to an even greater degree. For obvious reasons, any trees with compromised structural integrity should be cut down and removed as soon as possible. Also, trees which are ridden with certain disease have the potential to spread their illness and damage surrounding healthy trees as well, so it is important to identify these types of infections early and remove them quickly to prevent any further spreading.

**An additional risk of close proximity trees are their root systems, which can potentially grow more than 3 times longer than its actual limbs/branches and can possibly lead to a variety of underground issue for your property. These issues caused by roots can include damaged pipes, cracked walls, and busted pavement. So it is important to remember this fact when making decisions about a trees removal and  its proximity to your property.
