Here are a some of the reasons it could be time to consider calling a tree service in Erie, NY to determine if tree removal is the right choice your property:
- Decaying Trees – A decaying tree has serious damage, whether it’s from insects, disease, old age or some other cause. It should be removed from the property before it can infect surrounding trees or fall on a nearby structure.
- Safety & Visibility – Lower limbs can be removed in order to make the area below the tree safer or to create a better view.
