If you’ve recently bought a new home, but the property has too many trees for your liking or trees in poor condition, you might consider hiring professional tree removal service to get your new home ready for you and your family. You may consider removing trees on your property in order to:

Preserve Structure Of The Home

Trees that are too close to the house can cause damage to the house or to other structures on the property. Roots can grow into the foundation weakening the construction of the house. Damaged trees can have large branches break off or fall over entirely causing major damage to the roof and structure of the house. The best way to avoid such potential damage is to remove trees that are too close to the house, especially trees in poor condition.

Prevent Falling

You should also consider removing any trees with a dangerous lean, particularly if it leans in the direction of your house. While some trees may withstand for years with a lean, a lean can be an indication of a damaged tree at a greater risk of falling. If you are unsure whether a leaning tree is putting your property and loved ones at risk, contact Nevada Tree Service to inspect the tree and then give you an honest opinion.

Regulate Moisture

Trees and the subsequent shade provided by them can create dampness in areas directly beneath the tree cover. The presence of constant moisture can slowly result in rot for any wood in the area and create mildew in others. Removing trees will allow sunlight to get through preventing the accumulation of moisture.

Unblock The View

Sometimes tree provide a beautiful view, but other times they can block an even better view. Consider removing trees that are blocking windows or trees that stand in the way of a great view from your porch. Overgrown and poorly maintained trees can negatively affect the curb appeal of your home. Removing unsightly trees will improve the aesthetic appeal of your new home.

Deciding to remove trees can be a difficult decision, but the decision and process can be made easier with an experienced tree removal company.
