Impact of Large Trees

With large trees come expansive root systems… and that means a lot of things around the tree can be impacted. Nearby plants are probably intertwined with the tree roots, and cement slabs on your property might already be starting to crack from them. If left unmanaged, large trees actually have the capability to easily fracture the foundation of your home if close enough. With that being said, sometimes in order to save the rest of your landscape (or maybe even your home’s structural integrity) you must make the decision to cut the tree down and remove the stump.

The decision to cut down a large tree should not be taken lightly. Towering trees often provide homes with quite a few benefits. For one, mature trees can shade a home from the sun, saving the homeowner some utility costs and the need for sunblock when sitting on their porch can be a great addition to overall value for a home. Another benefit is the privacy provided by these trees. However, no matter the pros of having large trees in your yard, it does not matter if that tree is infected with disease or dying and posing a threat – they must be removed. Knowing what kind of trees are in your yard can better prepare you for their durability and expected lifetime (as well as when they might need to be removed).
