Preparing for Home Relocation: Tree Removal in Action
When a home needs to be relocated or a new structure is going in, tree removal becomes more than just cleanup — it becomes a critical first step in making space for construction. In this video, you'll see our team in action as we remove a large tree to prepare the area for an upcoming house move.
Watch How We Safely Remove Trees Near Structures
Using specialized equipment like bucket trucks and chainsaws, our crew carefully disassembles the tree piece by piece. The tree is located close to a house and near the lake, so there’s no margin for error — precision and safety are essential. You’ll see us:
Use a bucket truck to position our arborists for upper canopy removal
Cut limbs in a controlled manner to avoid damage to surrounding structures
Work efficiently to complete the removal while protecting the property and shoreline
This isn’t just about cutting wood — it’s about protecting homes, planning ahead, and executing with care.
Why Tree Removal Is a Key Part of Home Relocation
When relocating a house or preparing a lot for a major project, trees can’t just be left in the way. Root systems, canopy overhangs, and trunk placement all factor into whether a tree must be removed. In this case, the tree's size and proximity to the structure made removal the best option to ensure a safe and smooth move.
What to Expect During a Tree Removal Project
Site evaluation to identify risks to structures, utilities, and landscape
Sectional takedown of the tree starting from the top
Controlled lowering of branches and trunk pieces
Cleanup of debris to restore the site
