Tree removal can be complicated, but it doesn’t have to be. A skilled arborist should remove the tree professionally in a safe, effective manner, and try tree removal in the most natural way possible. Tree felling should only take place when the safest method of removing the tree is chosen, and when it is done safely. Tree removal should never damage the surrounding property, or cause structural damage to the house or other buildings nearby.
Tree removal can be performed by arborists who have received proper training. They should have at least ten years experience in tree felling and should be licensed. They should have the ability to make an estimate for the work, provide a guarantee, and carry liability insurance. If a tree removal is to take place on private land, the property owner has the right to deny permission for any tree removal. The property owner should only allow arborists who have a proper license, and are insured. This insurance protects arborists from liability if they damage the property or injure someone while removing the tree.
Some tree removal requires cutting the tree vertically, others require digging. Some only need to remove the lower portion, while others may need to cut away the entire top. Professional tree services should be aware of the type of tree, the size they need to remove, and the correct distance between the ground and the top of the trunk. The distance is essential because the shorter the distance between the top of the trunk to the ground, the less work will need to be done. A professional arborist should also be able to determine how much work will be required to remove the stump of a certain type of tree.
The stump should not be cut too deeply. Removing the heartwood alone would result in more waste and an uneven removal. A professional arborist should be familiar with how to remove thick roots and should also know how to deal with fallen leaves. Professionals in tree care have special equipment to remove leaves and twigs in a careful, professional manner.
After a tree removal, it’s important to have a plan for tree preservation. Tree planting can prevent future tree removal because planting trees can reduce the need for harvesting. An important part of any tree preservation plan should be a soil sampling. Sampling the soil before tree planting helps determine the density and quality of the soil.
For trees near power lines, an arborist should first check to see if the power line is actually near the area where the trees are to be removed. If not, the arborist should make sure that the nearest power line is properly insulated to protect nearby homes and structures. Power lines can be damaged by flying twigs, leaves and other debris. This can prevent the power line from conducting current near the area, which would cut off natural energy sources and even lead to power outages in neighborhoods.
