Believe it or not, trees are more valuable than you may think. Trees can increase your property value by as much as twenty percent. This depends on the location, age, species, as well as the number of trees.
On top of that, trees can help you save money on energy bills as they provide shade, soak up pollutants in the water and air, minimize soil erosion, remove carbon dioxide from the air, reduce noise pollutionamong other great benefits. Considering all the benefits that trees can offer, whether in terms of monetary or quality of life in general, it may be perplexing to some people as to why anyone would want to cut down their trees instead of caring for them. This begs the question of whether tree removal is truly the best solution for all your tree problems.
It is important to note that there are cases when a tree needs to be removed. In most instances, trees that are dead or located in a dangerous position will have to be cut off. Still, some dying, diseased, or damaged trees can also be saved.
That being said, many tree service providers suggest tree removal as the first solution even when there are far better options available, including root collar excavation, soil de-compaction, and many others. This may be due to the fact that many companies do not possess the expertise to properly recognize, diagnose, and treat tree disorders and diseases. Tree care experts are knowledgeable in tree diseases, physiology, root systems, pests and abiotic factors, and also the surrounding environment. One of the most common misconceptions about tree care is that the cost is high, considering the expertise. However, this could not be further from the truth.
Between tree care and tree removal, the latter is actually the pricier option. Depending on the size and species of the tree, the average cost to remove a big tree can be over 1,000 dollars. On the other hand, basic tree care solutions can be conducted for much less. Services such as excavating root collars, applying pest controls, and fertilization usually range from 50 to 200 dollars for each tree. Moreover, the average cost of treating a mature maple tree afflicted by gloomy scale is approximately 120 dollars, whereas removing the same tree can easily exceed 500 dollars.
In addition to being expensive, tree removal also comes with many disadvantages as well. One obvious drawback of removing a tree is the loss of its full value. With tree care, however, you are able to retain and even improve the value of your tree.
The process of tree removal, which involves the use of high-powered chainsaws and tools to remove a heavy object, is very risky to the tree service staff as well as your property. The tree removal team will have to bring weighty equipment onto your property, whereas tree care crews are usually small and will not cause damage to your property.
It is vitally important that you understand the condition of your tree so that you can choose the best solution for it. While tree removal is necessary in some instances, it is not always the case. Therefore, make sure that you consult with the experts before taking any action.
