Reasons for Tree Removal
Homeowners and landowners in Illawarra might find it difficult to determine if a tree on their property should be removed. Here are the main signs that indicate it may be time to take down your tree.
Damage or decay
A decaying or visibly damaged tree is not only unattractive but also poses significant health and safety risks. These trees can be unstable and may fall unexpectedly, making removal the safer option.
Pests
If a tree is infested with pests, it may be necessary to remove it to prevent further damage to surrounding plants and ensure the overall health of your landscape.
No leaves/growth
If a tree shows no leaves or signs of growth, it may be dead or dying, indicating that removal is necessary to prevent hazards and maintain the health of your property.
Fallen branches
If a tree is consistently dropping debris, such as branches or large limbs, it may pose a safety risk, making removal a prudent decision to protect your property and those nearby.
Overgrown
If a tree has become overgrown and is encroaching on structures or power lines, removal may be necessary to prevent damage and maintain safety in your landscape.
Storm Damage
If a tree has sustained significant storm damage, such as broken branches or a split trunk, removal may be required to eliminate potential hazards and ensure safety on your property.
