Thinking about upgrading your property with a new fence? Whether it’s for privacy, safety, or simply enhancing your curb appeal—there’s one important step homeowners often overlook: tree removal.
At Foos Tree Service, we’ve seen it time and time again—customers invest in beautiful new fencing, only to face costly damage or headaches down the road due to nearby trees. Here’s why it’s crucial to address trees before the fence goes in.
1. Roots Can Wreck a New Fence
Even if the tree trunk is a few feet away, roots can stretch far underground—pushing up fence posts, shifting soil, or cracking concrete over time. If you’re spending good money on a fence, make sure the ground it sits on stays solid.
2. Overhanging Branches = Future Problems
Trees that lean or have large limbs hanging over where a fence is going are a recipe for storm damage. All it takes is one strong gust or ice storm to send a limb crashing down, potentially breaking your fence and creating an unexpected repair bill.
3. Easier Access = Cleaner Installation
Removing trees or stumps beforehand gives your fencing contractor a clean slate to work with. No dodging roots or awkward angles—just smooth, straightforward installation. It also ensures the final look is tidy and professional.
4. Boost Your Property Value
Strategically removing trees that crowd or block views of a new fence can open up your yard, improve light, and give your home a cleaner, more well-maintained appearance. That’s a win whether you’re staying long-term or planning to sell.
