Tree Care Services In Burlingame

Though trees can add a lot of majesty to the landscape, they can also be the cause of some scary and dangerous situations. Protecting yourself and property from falling trees is just as important as caring for the tree itself.

That being said, one of the best ways to prevent dangerous situations from happening is by providing your trees with the care they need, and by paying attention to signs of damage or decay that could lead to a situation where there is either property damage or personal injury.

Tree removal can be dangerous. Give Ned Patchett a call today if you need to have a damaged tree removed from your yard.

What Is A Risk Assessment Survey?

A risk assessment survey is a homeowner’s best defense against a tree falling into their home or damaging other property such as vehicles, sheds, and outdoor living spaces. The assessment is designed to determine the likelihood of each tree causing damage or person injury.

Depending on how thorough the homeowner wishes to be, the consultant will do a general walkthrough of the property look for issues such as hanging limbs, damage from storms, and disease. If you wish to have each tree further diagnosed, they can be looked at individually from a 360-degree angle for a closer examination.

The assessment takes into consideration the lactation of the tree along with its species, age, health, and any defects. Soil composition and structure along with wind and weather patterns plus many other factors go into determining if or when a tree might fall.

If a tree has the potential to cause damage, a plan will be put into place to either reinforce the tree or remove it altogether. For the most part, an arborist will do everything possible to preserve the life of the tree before cutting it down.
