Do You Need Tree Removal?
Over a long enough time, a tree will start to decay and die. Sometimes, a tree can become a safety concern due to homes, buildings and other structures nearby. Here are a few reasons it could be time to think about calling a tree service in Providence, RI to determine if tree removal is the right choice your property:
- Decaying Trees – A rotting tree has serious damage, whether it’s from insects, disease, age or another cause. It should be removed before it can infect surrounding trees or collapse on a nearby structure.
- Safety & Visibility – Lower limbs can be cut off in order to make the area underneath the tree safer or to allow for a better view.
- Root Encroachment – Tree roots spread under the soil a lot farther than the tree canopy. Roots wrap around water lines and push up concrete if possible. Cutting the tree down eventually kills the roots and prevents them from destroying nearby property.
- Nearby Trees & Plants – A tree that grows too large for its location can affect the smaller trees and plants near it by taking away water and nutrients and limiting their sunlight.
- Power or Phone Lines – Tall trees interfere with electrical lines and pose a danger for falling. Sometimes the phone or electrical company may demand these trees to be removed, or you can proactively have trees removed to be safe.

Services
Each tree removal service in Providence is slightly different from the others. Your assigned arborist has to factor in the size of the tree, where it is and what you want done with the tree limbs and branches once it is cut down. Providence tree specialists from PCO Tree Care consider every factor before creating a plan to remove the tree with one of the services below:
- Basic Tree Removal – The standard tree removal service includes cutting down the tree, getting rid of the branches and limbs and cutting the trunk into smaller sections for firewood. For an additional cost, technicians can haul the wood away instead.
- Felling Only – The least expensive tree removal service is to just cut down the tree. Technicians fell the tree safely, but then it’s up to you to complete debris cleanup and cut up the limbs and trunk.
- Minimal Impact Tree Removal – If there isn’t much space to fell the tree, it’s recommended to bring it down in smaller pieces. This type of tree removal is more complex, but the best way to ensure the safety of your home, lawn and fences.
