Redwood trees are beautiful and iconic, but when planted too close to a home, they can become a serious safety and structural concern. Recently, our team at Revival Tree Service removed a large redwood tree in Walnut Creek, CA that was growing just feet from a house. Over time, the tree’s root system had expanded toward the foundation, increasing the risk of cracking, shifting, and long-term structural damage. Because of the tree’s size and proximity to the home, we used a controlled, section-by-section removal process to safely dismantle the tree without damaging the structure or surrounding landscape. We also addressed surface roots near the foundation to help prevent further issues. Removing the tree early helped the homeowner avoid costly foundation repairs and eliminated the risk of storm-related damage. If you have a large tree growing close to your home in Walnut Creek or anywhere in the Bay Area, Revival Tree Service can provide a professional assessment and safe removal when needed to protect your property.
