The Need For Tree Removal Services Before A New Pool Is Installed


Winter may not appear to be the best time to begin pool construction. After all, it is rather cold outside. However, in the states that are not knee-deep in snow, winter is the perfect time for pool construction to take place. Pool contractors are readily available during winter and the pool is installed and ready for use well before summer. However, before pool construction can begin, landscaping changes need to be made. 

One of the most important parts of changing your landscape is taking care of tree removal in the new pool location. There are several different ways tree removal services must be involved before pool construction begins. Consider these two points before pool construction begins.

Pruning Or Removal?

Once the area for the new pool location is identified, the next step is to contact a tree removal service. The tree specialist attends at your property, checks the new pool location, and advises on the trees located in or near the proposed construction zone. Trees located in the construction area are identified for removal. Trees which overhang or are close to the pool area are either marked for removal or pruning depending on their impact on the pool. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to trees around pools, so tree removal services take a close look at each tree and then discuss options with you. Additionally, consideration of equipment access for creating the pool is necessary and trees may need removal to allow easier access.

Excavation Or Stump Grinding?

The second question which tree removal services need to discuss with you is the removal of the stump after the tree is removed. The location of the tree has a direct bearing on whether excavation or stump grinding is a good choice. For example, any tree located within the pool zone must be excavated so no part of it remains. Additionally, for the area around the pool which will be paved, excavation is also recommended. This is because no stump should remain as it could shift within the earth over time and disturb the pavers above it. However, for trees removed away from the pool and surround, then stump grinding is a good option because you can plant fresh grass over the top and not disturb all the soil around the tree. 

It is important to contact tree removal services once your pool plan is in place because construction cannot begin until the trees are gone. Inspection of the trees and then their subsequent removal does take a couple of weeks so be sure to get started on this process as soon as possible.
