Why Tree Removal May Be Necessary
While we always prioritize tree preservation, there are situations where removal becomes essential for safety and property protection. Common reasons for tree removal include:
- Safety hazards: Trees that are dead, dying, or structurally unsound can pose significant safety risks. Falling branches or trees can cause property damage or even injury.
- Disease and pest infestation: Trees affected by disease or pests can become a source of contamination for other healthy trees. Removing the infected tree can prevent the spread of these issues.
- Construction and landscaping: Sometimes, tree removal is necessary to make way for new construction projects or landscaping improvements. Removing unwanted trees can help you redesign your outdoor space.
- Root damage: Tree roots can cause damage to foundations, sidewalks, and underground utilities. Removing problematic trees can prevent costly repairs and structural issues.
Our certified arborists will assess your situation and recommend the best course of action, always considering what's best for the tree and your property.
Our Tree Removal Process
At Ted Safford & Son, Arborists, we follow a meticulous process to ensure safe and efficient tree removal:

- Planning and preparation: We develop a detailed plan that includes the equipment needed, safety measures, and the best method for removing the tree. Our team ensures that all necessary precautions are taken to protect your property.
- Safe tree removal: Using state-of-the-art equipment and techniques, we carefully remove the tree in sections. This controlled approach minimizes the risk of damage to your property and ensures the safety of our team.
