Tree Removal Palo Alto
Knowing When It’s Time to Have a Tree Removed
Whether they are planted on your business or home property, we love having trees as part of the landscape. Without a doubt, they are an asset, and an investment in your property’s value. Unfortunately, they can also become liabilities if they are not attended to on a regular basis, and cared for properly. Then there are those occasions when a damaged, dead, or diseased tree poses a threat to your structure and the people inside of it. From the standpoint of personal and structural safety, now is the time to consider hiring a service for tree removal in Palo Alto, before any damage or injuries occur.
Close proximity/overgrowth – Despite the distance from the home that a tree is planted; it’s going to continue growing, and possibly pose a threat to the structure and/or anyone who is inside. As the tree grows, so do its roots until they have grown under driveways and foundations. Over time, this can cause a shifting in the floor and may even make your home unstable.
Examine the tree’s branches – Branches that are dead and hanging can cause thousands of dollars in roof repairs if high winds cause them to fall. If a tree is growing in such a way as to detract from its aesthetics, then you should consider pruning and shaping it. This will give it a healthier, newer appearance, and strengthen it in the process.
Check the bark, branches, and leaves – Certain diseases will cause structural issues and compromise a tree’s integrity, thereby making it necessary to cut it down and remove it. A licensed arborist, or tree removal in Palo Alto professional from Bay Area Tree Specialists, can evaluate how badly a disease has hurt the tree. Signs of diseases include: branches dying off, discolored leaves, and the lack of veins in them, fungus growing on the branches or trunk, and odd looking bumps on the tree’s bark.
Watch for defects – If there are certain noticeable defects that become apparent, these can compromise the integrity of the tree and eventually lead to it falling down. Keep in mind that, even if you have insurance, many policies will not cover damage resulting from acts of nature. The best way to avoid absorbing that type of loss is by having it inspected by a tree removal in Palo Alto specialist, for damage and defects. If there are overhanging branches or overgrowth, we recommend tree pruning immediately.
