The Dangers of DIY Tree Removal

Admin • June 10, 2021

Trees are beautiful additions to any property. However, sometimes they may need to be removed.


There’s no doubt that for many people if they need a tree removed from their property, their first instinct would probably be to try and remove it for themselves.


After all, how hard can it be?


In reality, DIY tree removal can be incredibly dangerous. The dangers of trying to remove a tree yourself are all too real, plus also all too common.


At Boland Contracting we have put together some information that may assist you. 

Why DIY Tree Removal May Be Dangerous

There are so many things that can go wrong when you are trying to  remove a tree  yourself.


If you’re not a professional arborist, it can be difficult if not impossible to tell where the tree is going to fall when you do cut it down.


Not only can this result in damage to surrounding buildings and powerlines, but it could even mean injury or death to yourself and your family.


It’s also common that you could be injured by falling branches if you are not using the proper safety gear, harnesses and ropes.


Attempting to remove a tree by yourself is an incredibly dangerous choice and can result in injury, death or damage to property.

When Trees Should be Removed

There are a few different reasons that you may choose to have a tree removed from your property

The tree may be in the way or limiting space on your property – if you were planning on building a home soon on the property you just bought or were thinking of expanding, you may need to consider removing any trees that are in the way.

The tree may be diseased – if the tree has any diseases that it could spread to other surrounding trees. You may want to consider removing the diseased tree as a preventative measure to save your other trees and plants.

If the tree has invasive roots – trees with invasive roots can cause a lot of problems. From damaged and burst pipes to damaged home foundations, it might be time to get rid of the tree.
