Crane Assisted Hazardous Tree Removal in Central Maine

Removing hazardous trees near homes and structures requires experience, planning, and the right equipment. At Howes Tree Services LLC, we specialize in hazardous tree removal in Central Maine, often using crane assistance when trees cannot be safely removed using traditional methods like climbing and rigging.

Recently we completed a hazardous tree removal that required careful planning and crane support to safely dismantle a large tree growing close to a home.

Evaluating a Hazardous Tree

When homeowners contacted Adam about a potentially dangerous tree, the first step is a careful inspection by a licensed arborist.

In this case, the tree showed several signs of becoming hazardous:

• Significant lean toward the house

• Large limbs extending over the roof

• Structural weakness in the trunk

• Limited space for safe felling

Because of these factors, Adam determined removing the tree in sections with crane assistance was the safest and most controlled approach.

Crane Assisted Tree Removal

Crane assisted tree removal allows large sections of a tree to be lifted away safely while Adam, a professional tree climber works in the canopy.

Using specialized rigging techniques, the tree is dismantled piece by piece while the crane operator carefully lifts and lowers each section to the ground.

This approach offers several important advantages:

• Minimizes risk to nearby homes and structures

• Allows safe removal of very large trees

• Reduces impact to surrounding landscape

• Provides controlled lowering of heavy tree sections

For hazardous trees located near buildings, cranes often provide the safest and most efficient solution.
