A Decaying Oak Tree Creates Safety Concerns for Arlington Homeowners
After an older oak tree on the homeowners’ property showed signs of decay in its trunk, they knew it would need to be removed. The tree showed advanced decay throughout its 80-foot trunk.
Leaving it alone wasn’t an option, as the decay would compromise the tree’s structural stability and increase the risk of property damage. The large tree was also near utility infrastructure and a roadway, so removing it was necessary to protect those as well.
Due to the tree’s condition, the team from Mercer Tree Service approached its removal with care. After assessing the oak and the surrounding area, they decided to break the tree down in sections. Cutting into the massive trunk revealed a hollow interior, confirming that the team’s cautious approach and extra safety precautions were warranted.
