Here are a few reasons it could be time to think about calling a tree service in Washington, OR to decide if tree removal is necessary your property:
- Rotting Trees – A rotting tree has serious damage, whether it’s from rodents and pests, disease, old age or some other cause. It should be removed before it can infect surrounding trees or fall on a nearby structure.
