While trees add a beautiful element to any yard, they are more of a hindrance in some cases. It’s important to recognize when a situation becomes so serious that it’s time to get rid of a tree. There are several reasons why a homeowner may suddenly need to call on the expertise of a tree removal service.

Here are some of the most critical reasons to hire an arborist as soon as possible:

• Storm Damage: Trees that suffer storm damage can pose a serious threat to your home. Old trees with weakened limbs are especially susceptible. You may wake up the morning after a storm to discover branches strewn about the yard, or look up and see a branch hanging treacherously close to your home. Some trees may even fall over in inclement weather. Trees that aren’t strong enough to withstand the weather should ideally be removed for the safety of your home, your family, and your neighbors.
• Weak Trees: If a tree appears visibly weak even when it’s not exposed to stormy conditions, it’s likely not strong enough to stand on its own for long. Before your home or vehicle is damaged, call a tree removal service.
• Tree Disease: Like any other living thing, trees are also susceptible to illness and may even become so damaged that they die. Diseased trees can be hazardous to surrounding trees and shrubs. If you contact an arborist in time, you might be able to save the tree.

It’s never a bad idea to contact a tree removal service if you suspect your property might be in danger. The arborist will closely inspect the tree to determine whether it requires complete removal or just tree trimming.
