A two-hour solution for a tree threatening a septic system
On January 30th, 2025, our team tackled what proved to be a surprisingly straightforward tree removal project in Orlando. A large magnolia tree needed removal to protect a damaged septic system, and our crew completed the job efficiently without complications.
A quick two-hour tree removal that protected a compromised septic system and preserved a newly installed driveway at a residential property on Lisbon Ct in Orlando.
This Orlando residence on Lisbon Ct faced a challenging situation: their septic tank had developed a hole, and a large magnolia tree in the front yard had begun sending roots toward the tank and drain field. The tree's position directly over the septic system posed a significant risk of further damage. The homeowners needed the tree removed quickly and carefully to prepare for installing a new septic system without causing additional complications to the already compromised infrastructure.
While the tree removal itself appeared straightforward, we needed to exercise extra caution due to the compromised septic system beneath. Any excessive ground pressure or improper technique could have worsened the existing damage. Additionally, the homeowners had recently installed a new driveway, which required special attention during the removal process. We carefully planned our equipment positioning and debris management to ensure the driveway remained completely protected throughout the project.
After assessing the situation, our team developed a removal plan that minimized risk to both the septic system and the new driveway. The magnolia's location in an open area of the front yard provided adequate working space, which simplified the process. We used specialized equipment to carefully dismantle the tree section by section, controlling the fall of each piece to avoid any impact on the sensitive areas below. Our experienced crew maintained constant communication throughout the process to ensure safety and precision.
Despite the potential complications, our team completed the entire tree removal in just two hours on January 30th, 2025. The efficiency stemmed from thorough planning, experienced crew members, and the relatively open working area. We successfully removed the entire magnolia tree, including managing the debris, without causing any disturbance to the septic system or leaving a single mark on the new driveway. The quick turnaround allowed the homeowners to proceed with their septic system replacement without delay.
The homeowners were thrilled with both the speed and quality of our work. What they had anticipated might be a complicated and potentially problematic removal turned out to be a smooth, efficient process. They particularly appreciated our attention to detail regarding their new driveway and our understanding of the septic system concerns. The clear communication throughout the project gave them confidence that their property was in good hands, and the results confirmed their trust was well-placed.
This Lisbon Ct project demonstrates how even seemingly straightforward tree removals can involve hidden complexities that require professional attention. Our team's ability to quickly assess the situation, develop an appropriate plan, and execute it efficiently resulted in a successful project completed in just two hours. The magnolia tree was removed without incident, protecting both the compromised septic system and new driveway while giving the homeowners exactly what they needed: a clear space to install their new septic system and peace of mind throughout the process.
