Removing the Threat Without Creating Another One
Removing a fallen tree in an open field is one challenge. Removing one wedged against a home’s roof and siding is another.
For this hazardous tree removal project, the crew relied on specialized rigging and cutting equipment to break the maple down in controlled sections rather than pulling or dropping it all at once. The crew planned each cut to avoid shifting weight onto the structure. This approach protected both the home and the surrounding property.
At every stage of the tree removal, the crew had to account for the tree’s position and its potential impact on the home, so they worked with the utmost caution. They kept the focus on controlled movement and minimizing unnecessary contact with the roof and siding.
By the end of the day, the maple was fully removed and hauled away. Because the focus was on eliminating the immediate hazard, stump grinding was left for another visit.
