Tree Removal

A hazardous tree deserves a calm plan.

Leaning, cracked, split or decayed trees can fail without much warning. We inspect, explain the risk in plain language and, when removal is the answer, take the tree down with the extra care a stressed tree needs.

  • Priced by: Height, condition, access and how close the tree is to targets
  • Methods: Sectional rigging, bucket truck or crane for weak trees

The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

Trees do not usually fail for no reason. A lean that has grown, a crack through the trunk, mushrooms around the base or a canopy that is half dead are all clues. Soil that has heaved on one side of the trunk can mean the roots are letting go.

A hazardous tree is also harder to remove than a healthy one, because its wood may not hold the way a healthy tree's does. Nashville Tree Service inspects the tree first, plans the cuts around its weak points and often removes it in sections so nothing depends on weakened wood.

Good questions

Hazardous Tree Removal: common questions

What makes a tree hazardous?

A tree is hazardous when it has a defect, such as a crack, decay or a lean, and something of value is within reach of its fall. A tree in the middle of an empty field is a low risk.

Can a hazardous tree be saved?

Sometimes. Cabling, selective pruning or protecting roots can extend a tree's life. We tell you honestly whether it is worth it.
