Tree Removal
Hazardous Hollow Tree Removal
Germantown, MDRecent
Customer Problem
The Situation
A large pine along the property fence had developed a severe trunk rot cavity, leaving it structurally unsound and at high risk of failing onto the fence and neighboring yard.
Work Performed
What We Did
We assessed the extent of the rot, planned a controlled fell away from the fence, and dismantled the tree safely. The hollow sections were handled with extra care due to their unpredictable failure points.
Equipment Used
- Chainsaws
- Climbing gear
- Rigging ropes
- Chipper
Safety Considerations
The rot made the tree unpredictable, so we avoided climbing it and instead used a controlled directional fell with escape routes planned for the crew.
Final Result
The hazardous tree was removed safely before it could fail on its own. The fence and neighboring property were protected throughout.
