Trees can do a lot of great things for your home. They can offer shade on scorching hot days and protect your roof from strong winds. However, they aren't indestructible. According to Bob Vila, an online home improvement resource, a survey of 800 homeowners found that one in 10 experienced a tree falling on their home. If you're worried about an unhealthy tree, it may be time to call an expert tree service for removal. First, you'll want to prepare a few important questions to ask the professionals before they start cutting.

1. How Will You Do the Job?

When you hire a tree service, you'll want to know what kind of equipment they'll use to get the job done. They should use proper equipment that will allow them to control the direction where the tree falls. That way, they will be sure not to damage any property, whether it's a home or a vehicle. 

2. How Long Will It Take?

Just like any other contracting work, you'll want to know how long it will take for them to get the job completed. Having a good estimate will allow you to plan your day around their schedule. Keep in mind that they may be working in inclement weather conditions, which can affect their ability to complete the job on schedule.

3. How Can I Grow a New Tree?

There are a variety of reasons why your tree will have to be removed. It could be dead, dying, or sick. Even so, you may not like the idea of having to remove the tree. Luckily, you may be able to grow a new tree in its place. An expert tree service will be able to give you great advice on planting a new one and can give you tips on tree care to ensure it stays healthy in the years to come.
