Most removals around Rochester fall into a few groups. A good tree pro will tell you honestly if a tree can be saved instead.
- It's dead or mostly dead. Dead wood gets brittle, and dead ash trees in particular can drop large limbs with little warning.
- It's leaning more than it used to, or the soil is heaving or cracking at the base.
- Big cracks, cavities or fungus on the trunk or at the root flare.
- It's too close to the house, foundation, garage or sewer line, or it keeps rubbing the roof.
- Storm damage split the trunk or tore out a major limb.
What affects the price
Tree height and trunk width, how close it is to buildings and lines, whether a bucket truck or crane can reach it, how the wood and brush get hauled, and whether you want the stump ground. Winter work on frozen ground can be easier on lawns.
