A beautiful, tree-lined property is the perfect way to boost curb appeal and add shade to help make your home more energy-efficient. But just like other landscaping, trees on your property require upkeep, sometimes including emergency tree removal. There are two main reasons most people require tree removal: weather conditions that have caused problems with a tree, or tree disease. Check out more on these causes below.

Weather Damage

Certain weather conditions can cause damage to trees, putting your property at risk as well. In icy conditions, or during storms, trees can split or be uprooted, causing them to lean too far, or even to fall over completely. In either case, you’ll want to have the tree removed immediately. Leaving the tree as it is can pose risk for further damage to both the tree and your property.

Tree Disease 

Tree disease can occur at any time and may not be obvious at first. One of the main causes of tree disease is soil erosion, but there are other tree diseases that occur too. For example, Beech trees can get Beech bark disease, which is a fungus that eventually kills the tree. Hardwood trees, such as white oak trees, can get leaf spot disease or root rot. While it’s not always easy to tell if your tree has a disease, one common symptom is “dead” blotches on the leaves. Root rot is not as easy to spot, but if you notice that a tree’s roots are broken, or appear to have a fungus, you should call your local tree service company to inspect.
