Decomposition
The natural breakdown process is an essential part of the ecosystem, allowing trees and other organic matter to break down into simpler substances, contributing nutrients to the soil and supporting new plant growth. However, when trees decompose, they can become unstable, posing a risk to property and individuals. We have certified arborists who can assess the state of the tree and determine the best course of action, which may include removing the tree, cabling or bracing, or other measures to mitigate any potential hazards like pruning or trimming. Acting quickly when dealing with trees in this state to prevent any potential safety hazards or property damage.
