When is the Best Time to Remove a Problematic Tree?

NEWMARKET, Ontario - Oct. 11, 2019 - PRLog -- Uprooting a tree from your property can be an emotional task. Trees tend to have very long lives, often surpassing hundreds or even thousands of years. Trees have a way of growing in the hearts of the community even when the tree is not established on your property. Trees offer a range of benefits from improving your mood to purifying the surrounding air. Regardless of the benefits, every so often trees can pose a safety hazard. There comes a time when trees become too dangerous to keep on your property either due to age, disease or other factors. Five Star Tree Services wants you to understand when you should be concerned about a tree and when it may be time to call one of our arborists to have it removed.

Is the Tree Healthy?

The most fundamental aspect to think about before removal becomes an option is the actual health of the tree. Some signs show a tree may be in poor health as opposed to simply in a period of shedding. A tree that has oddly shaped leaves or those whose growth is stunted are likely sick. If a tree is more than 50% discolored, damaged or has unusual funguses growing chances are it's time for it to be removed. One of our arborists will be delighted to come out and evaluate your tree prior to making any removal decisions.

What About the Trunk?

Periodically a tree may experience a minor illness that can be corrected with pruning or other treatments. In other cases, there may not be a cure for the sick tree. Checking the health of the trunk is an effective way to discover just how healthy or sick a tree is. A tree trunk that has open wounds, dead branches, and large cracks can fall over at any moment. This poses a danger not only to your property but also to people who live in the area. A hollow trunk even on a tree that seems healthy is also dangerous.
