Hazardous trees in Rapids City have compromised wood that cannot bear normal rigging loads. We use smaller sections, more conservative cuts, frequent crane support, and additional safety personnel. The result is a slower, more deliberate takedown — worth the cost to protect property and people, but more labor-intensive than healthy-tree work.
Standard homeowner policies in Illinois usually do not cover removal of hazardous trees that have not yet failed. They cover removal AFTER the tree falls on a structure. Some policies cover hazardous tree removal if the tree is imminently threatening insured structures. B.
