Hazardous Birch Tree Removal in Longview: Protecting Fences and Homes
Project Location: Longview, WA
Service Provided: Precision Tree Removal & Fenceline Clearance
The Challenge: Removing Large Birch Trees in Tight Quarters
A Longview homeowner contacted us regarding several large, multi-stemmed birch trees growing directly along their wooden fenceline. As seen in the "before" photos, these trees were not only encroaching on the fence but were also dangerously close to the neighboring homes. Their height and proximity posed a significant risk of damage during a storm.
The job presented significant obstacles:
- Zero Clearance: The trees were growing right against the fence and the neighbor's property line.
- Limited Access: The narrow side yard provided a very restricted workspace for our crew and gear.
- Property Protection: We had to ensure absolutely zero damage occurred to the wooden fence, the client's home, or the neighbor's house.
Our Solution: Surgical Sectional Removal
Given the tight quarters, a standard felling was impossible. We utilized a precise, sectional removal strategy.
- Strategic Planning: Our crew assessed the trees to determine the safest rigging points to handle the weight of the birch wood.
- Controlled Dismantling: Each limb and trunk section was carefully cut and lowered using ropes and pulleys, ensuring it did not swing into the fence or structures.
- Stump Grinding Prep: The trees were cut low to the ground, leaving clean stumps ready for future grinding or natural decay.
The Result: A Safe, Clear, and Bright Backyard
The hazardous birch trees were successfully removed without a scratch on the fence or homes. The transformation is dramatic: what was once a crowded, shady canopy is now a clear, open space with the sun finally shining through.
We hauled away all debris and sawdust, leaving the yard clean and safe. The homeowner can now enjoy their backyard with peace of mind, knowing their property is secure.
