Professional Tree Removal for a Sycamore That Was Too Close for Comfort
Although the towering sycamore enhanced the Northern Virginia property, it had long, heavy limbs that stretched dangerously close to the home’s roof. Worried about the potential for severe storm damage, the homeowner determined that the tree needed to come down. Dos Amigos Tree Experts assessed the situation and developed a comprehensive removal plan.
Addressing the Challenges of a Hazardous Tree
This Arlington project was challenging for our tree removal company. Working so close to a home requires a strategic tree cutting approach, especially when it’s this large. There’s a risk that the limbs or trunk could fall on the house, damaging the structure and surrounding property.
To solve this problem, the Dos Amigos Tree Experts crew took time to cut the limbs one by one and then cut the trunk into sections to ensure the utmost safety. This method allowed them to cut down the tree without incident. In addition, the team removed the debris and thoroughly cleaned up the work area, leaving no evidence that they were ever there.
By acting proactively, the Arlington homeowner avoided the stress of emergency tree removal and the potential for devastating harm to their family and property. A search for “tree removal near me” led them to Dos Amigos Tree Experts—a team they could trust to handle the job. They were thrilled with our service and tree removal results and can now winter without worrying that the tree will come crashing through the roof.
