Depending on what renovations are taking place, trees and stumps in your garden may need removing.

When it comes to tree removal, it is not only the limbs of the tree that can be removed but the tree stump too. Some homeowners may think there is no harm leaving a tree stump in the garden and this may be true however it’s important to understand the pro’s and con’s of leaving a stump exposed once it has been separated from a tree.
Read on to learn 5 reasons why you should have tree stumps removed including:
Tree stumps that have been separated from a tree will begin to rot. As this continues, fungi can begin to grow in and around a tree stump. Fungus can quickly grow and spread, making its way to other vegetation. It also presents a safety risk to people.
Unwanted pests such as termites, bugs and rodents can make a new home in an exposed tree stump. These pests can also spread to other vegetation in your garden and even enter your home or nearby buildings.
An exposed tree stump can be a safety hazard. Grass can grow over the stump making it not easily seen and a serious trip hazard. It could also damage your lawn mower if you happen to mow over it when mowing your lawn.
Removing a tree stump provides a cleared space for new vegetation. Leaving a tree stump can prevent you from planting new trees nearby as the root system is still in place and in the way.
A decaying tree stump can be an eye sore in a garden. It can impact the overall appearance of your garden and could deter potential buyers or tenants if looking to sell or lease your property.

Professional tree removalists are trained with all relevant safety tickets and white cards required to complete tree trimming and removal. Safety also includes ensuring the appropriate clothing is worn including hard hats, safety glasses, gloves and ear protection.
Removing trees normally involves working at heights. A mechanical device such as an elevated work platform may need to be used to safely access tall branches that need to be trimmed or removed. People who use and work with or near this specialised equipment must be trained, licenced and qualified to do so.
Each species of tree is different. For this reason, they often need to be trimmed and cared for differently. Common mistakes made when trimming trees include trimming at the wrong angle that can be both unhealthy and visually not pleasing plus taking too much off the top resulting in a tree no longer growing as it should. Another common error is over pruning which can lead to a tree dying.

There are numerous benefits of having trees in your garden or on your property including making oxygen, providing shade and being great to admire.

When it comes to inspecting, trimming or removing trees it is a job best left to professionals. Safety is imperative and tree professionals have the qualifications and expertise to correctly assess and diagnose trees and the equipment, experience and relevant tickets to safely trim or remove them.
Read on to learn a few warning signs a tree could be hazardous including:
If you notice branches are dead or showing signs of decaying, it could mean there is a disease within your tree making the branch at risk of falling. This can be hazardous especially if the tree is close to powerlines, a roof or fence lines.
When inspecting a tree from the ground, if it is leaning to one side it could indicate the tree may no longer be stable and is at risk of falling. Soil movement under the tree can also indicate the tree is unstable and at risk of falling.
Tree roots that have become discoloured and are now rotted, dark brown or black can mean there is a disease in the tree and is one of the signs of a hazardous tree. Diseased roots will potentially lead to the whole tree becoming diseased and dying off making it a high risk of falling.
Cracks in a tree trunk can be caused by weather such as lightning. Cracks or splits in a tree trunk indicate there is weakness in the tree making it at risk of falling.
When visually looking at a tree, if you notice an area is producing more foliage than another, it can indicate there is a growth issue. If the branches with more foliage becomes too heavy it can cause branches to break and fall.
