How vital trees are in our lives! How can we doubt it? Their roots can purify the air or reduce soil erosion. We also appreciate them on our land because they provide us with a pleasant coolness during summer heat waves! We love the intimacy and relaxation they bring us, their wind-blocking function, the bird songs they give us to hear, the increase in value they give to our property... Oh yes, and the beautiful landscapes they help to create.
The list is hardly complete. So, for many, cutting down a tree is heartbreaking. Alas, there are times when it cannot be avoided. But when exactly? Let's look at some situations.
Dead tree
Can a dead tree be left in place, one wonders? You will agree that at the level of drainage it has, a branch could fall off and hurt someone. This could result in serious injury or even death. This is why there is no room for prevarication: this tree must be cut down immediately!
So don't postpone this decision. Especially since, even if it's much worse, insects and fungi will infiltrate the smallest crevices, bringing additional problems until you are convinced.
Uprooted trees
Sometimes the winds uproot the trees. What future awaits them, one wonders then? It is not possible to predict it. They may or may not survive. The most common situation is having to cut down a tree. Even if the idea is upsetting.
Sick tree
Should we cut down the diseased trees? Not always. The degree of damage and the possibilities of recovery must be carefully assessed. Would it be possible to prune the tree or is it inevitable that the tree will have to be cut down because it is too badly damaged by the disease? These are the questions we will help you answer. You really need to look at all the options. To avoid the extreme solution of felling, the best thing to do is to contact us at 450-600-4545 as soon as a clue comes to your attention. By doing this early, you may well avoid the worst.
Storm-damaged trees
Severe storms cause damage to some trees. It may indeed be so bad that they have to be felled. On the other hand, if a tree has been unbalanced, perhaps a guy rope would save its life. Do not delay any longer, and contact us so that we can analyze the situation before it is too late.
Misplaced tree
An idea has been running through your mind for a long time, where you have just bought a property to which you would like to make some changes. For example, you might consider installing a gazebo. Right over there. How well placed it would be! But here it is: a tree is in the way. A damn fine ornamental cherry tree. If you don't cut it down, that idea you've been dreaming about won't come true. If you do cut it down, it'll be a great pity.
It is possible that our needs may lead us to consider the unfortunate cutting down of a tree. But before making this irrevocable decision, call us at 450-600-4545. We can discuss other options with you, such as pruning or pruning. Maybe you can both keep your tree and carry out your project, who knows?
Trees that compete with each other
Another possible problem is when the branches of two trees that are too close together become increasingly entangled. Sometimes you have to choose to cut down one of the two plants, and sometimes this choice is made easier by nature. Indeed, if one of them is at the end of its life, while the other still has long and beautiful years ahead of it, the decision probably won't cause you too much trouble. But more often than not, it will be harder for you to make up your mind. Our knowledge of the subject will broaden the elements to consider that will help you to see other possibilities perhaps, or to opt for slaughter if it comes to that.
After cutting down a tree
Suppose you had one of your trees cut down. What happens then? Yes, a huge, disheartening pile of wood is now littering your lawn! But what are you going to do with it? Don't worry about it. We offer a chipping service. So your branches will be quickly reduced to wood chips. You can reuse them if you like them better. If not, we'll free you of them. Tree trimming
